![]() This movie took a classic story about legends and turned it into a dull adaptation about a witch taking revenge of those who kicked her out of her childhood home…or something like that. Oh, and the other main character of the book, Brom Bones, is pretty much non-existent in the movie. She is pretty much lifeless throughout the entire movie. ![]() Then there is Katrina Van Tassel (played by Christina Ricci). Although, the processes don’t really seem to make much sense. He uses more scientific processes to examine the murders. Ichabod is a little awkward, which is pretty much the only similarity to the book. Instead of an awkward school teacher, he is a constable, who comes to Sleepy Hollow to solve the murders committed by the Headless Horseman. First, we have Ichabod Crane, played by none other than, Johnny Depp. I know, the original story is about an awkward school teacher who runs into a headless horseman, but Tim Burton managed to take it to a whole other level. It is very dark, gloomy and full of unrealistic characters. This may be a shocker but it is very …Tim Burton-y. This movie adaptation is directed by Tim Burton. ![]() There are so many adaptations, so obviously, I couldn’t talk about just one adaptation. Almost everyone knows the story or at least recognizes the name. ![]() The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is one of my favorite classic short stories. ![]()
