Ed Wood Appreciation Thread

Inspired by starchychaos' avatar, let us all remember the glory and inspired bizarrety that was Ed Wood - the man himself, his films, or the Johnny Depp movie...

The movie Ed Wood caused me to totally change my mind about Johnny Depp. Before I Only viewed Depp as a pretty boy actor and nothing more than that. Afterwards, I came away thinking he was a much better actor than I ever gave him credit for. I now regard him as one of our finest actors.

It's a brilliant film and I think he did a great job in balancing the comedy and pathos.

He was downright inspiring in that role. To this day, it's the one Tim Burton movie besides Pee-Wee's Big Adventure that still holds up for me.

Let's have a glimpse of the great man's authentic work. his first, truly original offering to the world of cinema. The transvestite, horror epic - Glen or Glenda.

I'm still waiting to see Ed Wood... but I watched Plan 9 from Outer Space several years ago... and it was... unbelievable. :hehe:
