Visions are worth fighting for. Why spend your life making someone else's dreams?

Rating: 8/10 (1 January 2014)

Most moviegoers have probably never heard of Ed Wood, and they most likely have never heard of his two most famous films: "Plan 9 from Outer Space" and "Glen or Glenda."
Ed Wood is probably the worst director of all time, and Plan 9 is probably the worst film ever. Neither fact disturbed Wood, as all he wanted to do was make pictures.
Johnny Depp was fantastic as Wood, and Martin Landau won an Oscar for his performance as Bela Lugosi. The film also features Sarah Jessica Parker, Patricia Arquette, G.D. Spradlin, Vincent D'Onofrio, Orson Welles, and Bill Murray.
The screenplay for this mostly true story, makeup and cinematography were all first rate.
Director Tim Burton has a solid hit here.
