From the Paper:

"Tim Burton is a notable filmmaker known for his quirky and often dark, gothic atmosphere pervading his high-profile films. Animated films are a brilliant way to escape from the restrictions of creating reality, and Burton uses this technique to his advantage in one of his films. The Corpse Bride is a stop-motion-animated film about a young man of the Living who accidentally marries a woman of the Dead, which thrusts the character in an ongoing series of unusual events. The two worlds perceived in the film are completely different, and this effect is attained to the right degree. The sets hold a peculiar delicacy and beauty. Lighting is exaggerated to the perfect extent, creating the perfect tone for every scene."
