Edward Scissorhands
Edward Scissorhands is a 1990 Tim Burton film about a gentle, artificial man with blades for hands, or the character himself.
The name evokes someone who is tender but dangerous, whose touch inevitably causes harm despite good intentions: He's like Edward Scissorhands—everything he tries to fix, he destroys.
The image captures the tragedy of being unable to connect without cutting.
