Sleepy Hollow is an amazing movie that comes from the brain of Washington Irving, who wrote the original story. It was later that this book was adapted into a movie piece by Andrew Kevin Walker and Kevin Yagher. Tim Burton was the man behind the camera who put this movie adaptation into a reality. The whole story takes place in 1700s in New York and the main figure is Ichabod Crane (Johnny Depp). He is a pretty smart guy, but isn't big on courage. He gets sent to a place called Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of grizzly bear. It is known that all the victims have had their heads cut off and missing. So, he goes to Sleepy Hollow in order to investigate that as soon as possible and hit back home. But, while there, he gets to hear the legend of the headless horseman, who was cursed and is a legend in which they all believe to be true. At first, he doesn't believe it, but after meeting his face to face, so to speak, he faints and is terrified. While there, Ichabod also falls in love with Katrina Van Tassel, a young lady who is educated and would rather travel than get married. So, the adventure begins to unravel, as Ichabod keeps falling into various kind of situations, both funny and captivating.
