One of my holiday favorites....

I suppose it's not really a holiday classic, even though the last scenes are set at Christmas time, but I always like to watch it this time of year. Edward Scissorhands. I watched it last night for the gazillionth time, and I know I'll watch it again (probably this afternoon while thinking about packing for the holiday travel weekend). Perhaps it's a bit sappy and a bit sentimental for some (including some like me who tends to scoff at sentimentality) but I think it's one of Johnny Depp's greatest performances, and I get weepy every time I watch it. Sometimes a romantic fairy tale is all the world needs.
