Tim Burton’s new movie, Big Eyes, is the true story of ‘50s art world stars Walter Keane (Christoph Waltz) and Margaret Keane (Amy Adams), whose love affair devolved into a bitter court battle after Margaret claimed Walter had been taking credit for her work. The film certainly has a more realist bent than most Tim Burton films, although the iconic big-eyed children in the paintings do look like something straight out of The Nightmare Before Christmas.Â
