Description
From a young age Ned demonstrated a remarkable ability for raising the dead with a single touch. The only drawback to this seemingly miraculous gift is that a second touch from him would render them permanently dead. When a private investigator spots Neds peculiar talent he enlists him to help solve murder cases by reviving the victims just long enough for them to indentify their killer. An ingenious plan you might think. But what happens when one of the deceased is your childhood sweetheart and you are faced with the ultimate moral dilemma let the victim rest in peace after theyve given evidence or keep them alive indefinitely in the name of love BR Series creator Bryan Fuller (DEAD LIKE ME) indulges his taste for the macabre in a comic fantasy that not only challenges our own sense of mortality but makes us laugh in doing so. With its hyper-real visuals PUSHING DAISIES bears a striking resemblance to films like BIG FISH AMELIE and EDWARD SCISSORHANDS though in this case the bright saturated colours and exaggerated camera angles belie the shows dark humour. This release contains every episode from the debut series.
