From director Tim Burton, Big Eyes tells the outrageous true story of one of the most epic frauds in history.

In the late 1950s and early 1960s, painter Walter Keane (Christoph Waltz) had reached success beyond belief, revolutionising the commercialisation of popular art with his enigmatic paintings of waifs with big eyes.
