《剪刀手爱德华》是一部关于机器人的现代童话。它讲述一座古堡中住着一位发明家，制造出了各种东西，最后还造出了一个机器人，并给他起名叫爱德华。发明家对这件作品倾注了全部的心血，他甚至教授爱德华人类的礼仪和诗歌，何时微笑何时沉默。然而，没有等到机器人最后完成，发明家就去世了，留下已有人类心智却残留着一双剪刀手的爱德华独自在古堡生活。不知过了多少岁月，一位推销化妆品的中年女子佩格误闯城堡，发现了形象古怪的爱德华。好心的佩格没有被爱德华惨白的肤色和张牙舞爪的剪刀手吓倒，而是怜其孤独，把他带回了自己的家。纯洁的心灵在现实的世界无法生存，人类的自私贪婪容总是容不下它。

如果晚上月亮升起的时候，月光照到我的门口，我希望月光女神能满足我一个愿望，我想要一双人类的手。我想用我的双手把我的爱人紧紧地拥在怀中，哪怕只有一次。如果我从来没有品尝过温暖的感觉，也许我不会这样寒冷；如果我从没有感受过爱情的甜美，我也许就不会这样地痛苦。如果我没有遇到善良的佩格，如果我从来不曾离开过我的房间，我就不会知道我原来是这样的孤独。
