His writing and directing credits range from big-budget features such as \u003ci\u003eBatman\u003c\/i\u003e (1989) and \u003ci\u003eBatman Returns\u003c\/i\u003e (1992), to the comically grisly \u003ci\u003eThe Nightmare Before Christmas\u003c\/i\u003e (1993) and \u003ci\u003eCorpse Bride\u003c\/i\u003e (2005), to the twisted fairy tale \u003ci\u003eEdward Scissorhands\u003c\/i\u003e (1990), to literary adaptations like \u003ci\u003eBig Fish\u003c\/i\u003e (2003), \u003ci\u003eCharlie and the Chocolate Factory\u003c\/i\u003e (2005) and \u003ci\u003eSweeney Todd\u003c\/i\u003e (2007). Though his name has become synonymous with the macabre and the odd, Burton’s films often reveal and champion the flawed human in us all.    This collection of new essays brings together scholarship on many of his popular films, adaptations, and innovations in stop-motion animation and his collaborative relationship with actor Johnny Depp, providing an in-depth exploration of one of the most prominent figures on the pop culture landscape in recent decades.","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company, Incorporated Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47129793331440,"sku":"9781476623917","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781476623917_p0.jpg?v=1763608674","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781476623917","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
