One of Tim Burton's best. This movie is a fabulous retelling of the life of Ed Wood, a struggling film maker in the 1950s. Moreover, it shows the powerful bond of friendship shared between Ed Wood and the legendary Bela Lugosi. I superb movie which actually portrays the struggles of Ed Wood who was never able to make a movie worthy of appreciation during his own era.
The Movie starts of very well and develops a plot almost immediately. One can see that the character of Ed Wood is very well crafted by Burton. In addition, I think the most praiseworthy part of the movie is the friendship of Ed Wood and Bela Lugosi which is very well manifested by Burton.
The irony is that Bela Lugosi never won an Oscar himself and Martin Landau won an Oscar for playing Bela.
Four out of Four!
Brilliant!
