True cinema

Rating: 10/10 (19 October 2000)

This movie may be the best ever made about a real person.
It depicts the life of 50's\60's film director Ed Wood at the height of his mediocrity. He is, of course, known as the worst film maker of all time, for those who don't know.
Johnny Depp turns in one of the greatest film perfomances ever. If he really needed to prove his worth as an actor, this film is it. He has a great cast to play off of and is a replica of the late Wood. Let it be known that Depp is not one of those 'pretty boy' actors that made it due to looks. The man has depth.
Bill Murray leads the cast in portraying the weird world of actors that Wood surrounded himself with.
It's funny,sad,pathetic,warm and heart felt all at the same time. Never seen another film like it, quite possible never will again. Tim Burton is a master of the' off beat- non main stream' film world.
10 out of 10, in my book.
