Description

Hey everybody I just got done with this and I had to upload it cause I'll be gone this weekend.
Anyway this is Emily from Corpse Bride.
One of the best Tim Burton movies ever made.

It's also one of my favorite movies.

Emily's Story She is introduced into the story when Victor, who has just come from his failure of a wedding rehearsal, wanders into the woods to practice his vows. After perfectly reciting his vows, he places the wedding ring on one of Emily's skeletal fingers, thinking it's another branch sticking out of the ground. Emily rises up from the ground and chases Victor until she catches him, and takes him to the Land of the Dead. It is revealed that Emily fell in love with a mysterious man but was murdered during a planned elopement for her money.

Emily is at heart a loving soul, however, and forgives fairly easily -- it doesn't take too long for her to forgive Victor after he comes to apologize (particularly after they play piano together). Later, her jealousy towards Victoria finally disappates, when she sees her "rival" in the church and realizes that her chance to be a bride has come and gone, and that letting Victor kill himself to marry her will only destroy Victoria's hopes the way hers were. The one person whom she doesn't forgive easily is Lord Barkis, with good reason. In the final fight, she shows off a bit of a protective side, both helping Victoria avoid being hurt by falling church pews and shielding Victor from Barkis's final sword blow.

Emily was a very beautiful young lady who was born into a wealthy family. When a mysterious man came to visit town, she quickly fell in love with him, but her father disapproved of the match and wouldn't allow them to get married. An upset Emily planned an elope with her mysterious lover, which ended in disaster. Dressed in her mother's wedding dress, she escaped into the forest late at night and waited for her fiance to come so they could leave. However, her fiance killed her upon his arrival, and she discovered that he'd run off with the money and jewels she'd taken with her after waking up as one of the undead. She decided to wait under the tree she'd been killed by until another man (who happened to be Victor) came to "Set her free".
