Sammanfattning:This paper aims at showing the importance of colours in the work of Tim Burton through the example of Sleepy Hollow, adapted from Washington Irving’s classic tale. Indeed, colours enable Burton to highlight the main narrative and formal features of his film. Colours help define and dramatize space, express the contrast between reality and fancy or dream. They are part of the characterization of the main protagonists, in particular Ichabod Crane, and they also partake of the symbolic network of the film. Colours are also referential in a different way as they are a sign, among others, of the rich intertextuality that pervades the film.
