In the films directed and produced by Tim Burton the most apparent characteristic is the visual style. The strange worlds and their stylized look have a design that is unique and recognizable. This style is most influenced by the German Expressionist films from the 1920’s. The highly contrasting dark and light, distorted perspectives and dark and stylize lighting reflect not only German Expressionist film but also the horror films of Universal in the 1930’s as well as science fiction B-movies of the 1950’s. This stylized look is used to some extent in all of his films, due to him being a fan of these types of films growing up. Tim Burton’s love for all things macabre, dark and bizarre has highly influenced the visual style of his films.
Tim Burton also created unforgettable characters such as Willy Wonka from Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, Corpse Bride, Caroline, Jack etc. And Johnny Depp frequently appears in Burton's movie as the main character. With his evil smirk and dreary eyes, Johnny Depp is definitely the most suitable actor for Burton's Movies.
