Short after her arrival here in Berlin Alexa showed me her favorite stop-motion short film Vincent, written by Tim Burton and Rick Heinrichs in 1982. I didn’t know it so far, but it’s brilliant.
The film is narrated by Vincent Price, a life-long idol and inspiration for Burton. From this relationship, Price would go on to appear in Burton’s Edward Scissorhands. Vincent Price later said that the film was “the most gratifying thing that ever happened. It was immortality - better than a star on Hollywood Boulevard.”
