Vincent, who is only seven years old, always shows good manners and does what adults ask him to do. But he is also a fantasy boy, his mind is full of all kinds of strange and novel ideas, but suppressed by the adult society, he falls into deep loneliness and lives in a world full of ghosts in meditation. Vincent's favorite writer is Edgar Allen Poe. One night, while reading a frightening book, he fantasized that he was a terrorist actor, playing the role of a murderer who buried his wife alive. He dug up her grave to make sure she was still alive. He didn't realize that it was his mother's flower bed. Vincent's mother locked him in the room. He knew he had to be deported to the Doomsday Tower. He was sentenced to spend his life there and sleep, alone, accompanied by a portrait of his beautiful wife, when his lonely "grave" left only his confused thoughts. After Tim Burton finished filming Vincent, Disney executives banned the work as scary, dark and unsuitable for children. This film won the audience Award at the 1984 Ottawa International Animation Film Festival.
