Over deze film

From visionary Oscar®-nominated director Tim Burton (EDWARD SCISSORHANDS, CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY) comes the outrageous true story of one of the most extensive art frauds in the 20th century. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Walter Keane (two time Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz of DJANGO UNCHAINED) revolutionized the commercialization of popular art with enigmatic paintings of waifs with big eyes. But soon the shocking truth was discovered: Walter's works were not painted by him at all, but by his wife Margaret (five time Oscar®-nominee Amy Adams of AMERICAN HUSTLE). BIG EYES focuses on the success of Margaret's paintings and her tumultuous relationship with her husband, who catapulted to international fame while taking credit for her work. Also starring Danny Huston (X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE), Krysten Ritter (TV's DON'T TRUST THE B---- IN APT. 23), Jason Schwartzman (MOONRISE KINGDOM), and Terence Stamp (THE ART OF THE STEAL).

This movie is not necessarily a Tim Burton original but it is still on one of my top favorites out of his movies. He takes on a more realistic approach with a real story. The story is well told throught the whole story and the cinematography is very well done. Acting preformances are top notch and women in the 60's are portrayed well through Amy Adams character. Overall a very good movie.

I did have to take a nap and then come back to finish the movie...no big inspirational ending, you pretty much get the ENTIRE movie in the trailer

Why does this appear to be a true story, when my whole generation knew these were Margaret Keane paintings? You don't even mention Margaret Keane in the story tale.
