Pining for the days when Winona Ryder was relevant and Johnny Depp had that babyface thing going? Then take your ice-cold heart to the Edward Scissorhands Winter Formal at The Frida Cinema. Modeled after Tim Burton’s 1990 film classic, this holiday reception features all the oddities and magic you'd expect from a Scissorhands-themed bash, like a film screening, hairstyle contest, prom photography area (formal dress is strongly encouraged), and a Q&A with “the Real Johnny Dep” aka Ronnie Rodriguez. They may even serve ambrosia salad! Release yourself from isolation, bust out your best leather get-up, and dance with fellow film fans, freaks and man-made monsters.
