Tim Burton ist einer der originellsten und kreativsten Regisseure Hollywoods und zugleich Lyriker und bildender Künstler. Wie kaum einem anderen gelingt ihm regelmäßig der Spagat zwischen künstlerischem Anspruch und kommerziellem Erfolg. Mit Filmen wie »Edward mit den Scherenhänden«, »Nightmare Before Christmas« oder »Sleepy Hollow« hat er eine eigene, visionäre Bilderwelt geschaffen und international eine große Fangemeinde gewonnen. Dieses Buch enthält eine Sammlung von Interviews, die der Herausgeber im Laufe der letzten zwanzig Jahre mit Burton geführt hat. Darin spricht der Regisseur erstmals offen und ausführlich über seine Kindheit in Kalifornien, die frühe Arbeit als Zeichner für Disney, wiederkehrende Motive in seinem Werk und über die Ursprünge seiner düster-grotesken Visionen. Eingeleitet wird der Band mit einem Vorwort von Burtons langjährigem Freund und Weggefährten Johnny Depp.
