a great biography on an eccentric individual

Rating: Null/10 (5 September 2018)

Ed Wood is a fine collaboration between Johnny Depp who plays the titular character and the director Tim Burton. For those unaware Ed Wood was a film director in the 50s with a colorful personal life and a less than decent knack for directing. His films are often considered the worst ever though he genuinely thought he was making great movies. What shines through is Ed Wood's charisma and honesty and you can't help but like him. Johnny Depp as usual disappears into the role and he is ably supported by everyone from Sarah Jessica Parker to Martin Landau. This is a great film to watch if you are a fan of Depp, Wood or just good old-fashioned storytelling.
