Fine performances all around, particularly from Depp and the immensely sympathetic Wiest.

Burton's modern fairytale has an almost palpably personal feel: it is told gently, subtly and with infinite sympathy for an outsider who charms the locals but then inadvertently arouses their baser instincts.

It remains curiously hollow.
