Movie Haiku:Like all beloved fairy tales, we predict this film will get better every time you see it. A man expecting his first child (a son) has one last chance to reconcile with his dying father. Burton loving embellishes each of the father’s elaborate yarns with rich detail. Ladies: bring Kleenex!
