Sleepy Hollow (1999)

I had great fun watching this. I can't even tell which I enjoyed more between it and another superb Tim Burton movie, Alice In Wonderland, nor which is better. The humor, which is solely driven by the very capable Johnny Depp, is spot-on, while the mightily desirable Christina Ricci is put there as an excuse for a love interest. The character design of the headless horseman is wonderful, and so are the caricatures of the villagers, especially the priest; Tim Burton is master of caricatures, and I love quality caricatures. His imagery and atmosphere is also great.
