  Edward (Johnny Depp) is a young man living alone whose scissor hands are the result of a weird scientific experiment during which the inventor (Vincent Price) has died before completing his work. An Avon lady, Peg (Dianne Wiest), finds Edward, pities him, and invites him into her home where Edward becomes somewhat of a community celebrity because of his specialized talents, which include hair styling and hedge trimming. Edward is attracted to Peg's daughter Kim (Winona Ryder) whose boyfriend Jim (Anthony Michael Hall) is a bully. But, Edward's happiness proves short-lived when he is accused of a crime, and only Peg and Kim rise to his defense.    1 User Review

  This movie was so sweet and heartwarming. You may never know it from the cover, but this is one of the nicest movies ever created. Johnny Depp strays from his usual cute look into kind of a grunge look, but you still feel for his character.
