In Edward Scissorhands, Tim Burton uses extreme close-up shot to show that the scene being shot close up is important. For example, when the camera is extremely close to the front door while Peg is knocking on it, the door shows how large the house is and gives some sort of clue to what the reader might think is inside. Another example of extreme close-up shot, is when the camera is pointing on the swing with the pictures to give a feeling of pity toward Edward because the pictures say “blind boy reads with his hands,” and Edward was not finished so he feels lonely because he has scissors for hands.
