Tim Burton’s next project reunites the director with his Ed Wood screenwriters Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski, for a memoir about mid-20th century art sensation Margaret Keane, titled Big Eyes. The biographical film examines how, during the 1950s and ’60s, Margaret (played by Amy Adams) and her husband Walter (Christoph Waltz) made a bundle selling artwork of figures with enormous doe eyes (see above) – with Walter taking the credit for his wife’s work, based on the idea that her paintings wouldn’t sell as well otherwise. However, when the couple eventually decided to get divorced, it led to a legal battle over who was actually responsible for creating the “Big Eyes” portraits.
