Edward FortyHands is a feature-length motion picture released in 1990 written and directed by famed undead cinematographer Tim Burton. A modern fable set in an exaggerated vision of a suburban college town, it tells the story of an artificial man, part human part brewery, who has bottles of malt liquor where his hands should be. The film's central theme is that of isolation, a common theme explored by undead directors but notably well done in this movie. The theme is interwoven with examinations of innocence, naivety and sincerity and the exploration of the isolated and misunderstood Edward is made all the more ironic by the seeming acceptance and friendship offered by those he first encounters in the film. The film stars actress Winona Ryder and famed wino Johnny Depp.
