Ed Wood

That Tim Burton was able to gather so many lives and fuse their hopes, dreams and fears into a two hour film is an achievement in and of itself.......that he was able to do it in such an artistic fashion in utterly amazing. Perhaps one of his best films I see no need to say naything more than Martin Landau well derved his Oscar for his work as Bela Lugosi and casting George "The Animal" Steele as Tor Johnson was perfect. Come to think of it, everybody was perfectly cast EXCEPT for Johnny Depp! He's great in his role, no questionm but when you compare it to how we no the other "characters" his is the one that seems the least authentic which is odd as Wodd's widow thought he was a dead-ringer! One stellar film, almost all true, which just goes to show reality can indeed be stranger than fiction.
