TIM BURTON A Child’s Garden Of Nightmares
Edited by Paul A. Woods Revised and Updated
Tim Burton, the cinematic genius behind many American gothic film classics, has the heart of a child. Revising the imagery of horror movies, TV sci-fi and cartoons, Burton imbues juvenile fantasy with emotional depth. Tim Burton: A Child’s Garden Of Nightmares charts the filmmaker’s path from malcontent animator at Walt Disney Productions to directing feature films with a fantasy aesthetic and a natural sympathy for the alienated outsider (Ed Wood, Edward Scissorhands, Batman). This popular cult title is now revised and updated to include Burton’s latest three films – Big Fish, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Corpse Bride and a preview of the upcoming Sweeney Todd. Tim Burton is the definite guide to a cinematic career based on a love of pop-gothic imagery. 192 pages / 50 b+w photos / 230 x 170mm
