Filmed in 1994, a rare black and white film

Tim Burton's films have always felt pretty good, fairy tale + absurd impression; in this one, the background of the story is realistic, but there are many naive elements in the characters, which are very relaxed and comfortable to watch. This seems to have been filmed in 1994. It is a rare black and white film. Haha, it is quite bold. Ed Wood was a Hollywood director specializing in shoddy films in the 1940s. He has a unique way of making films, which actually feels pretty good. It is also a story-telling film. The most impressive part is the part where Johnny Depp jumps off his clothes and shoots the UFO model at the end, which is quite strong.

    Although our Ed has been admitted to the hospital for a while, he has not given up on his dream journey: he still ran around looking for investors, begging those famous actors to join his crew, and was caught in the movie theater. The audience's rotten egg and rotten tomato slapped their heads. The scene is lively and funny

    A meta-movie about the making of a Z-rated film, paying tribute to the "worst director of all time" who never gave up. Tim Burton blends his dark gothic style with the elements of Z-rated films. Most of the characters and scenes in the play are restored to several Ed Wood movies. In addition to Martin Landau winning the Oscar for supporting actor for the role of Bella Lugsey, Johnny Depp's performance is also wonderful enough - you will always remember how he faced the difficulties in the film with a bright face, Always obsessed and delighted to watch the shooting of each scene, and excitedly ordered: "Action!" "Cut!". For movie fans, this film is even more inspiring and moving: who has not heard of the king of horror movies Bella Lughsi and Boris Karloff (the film also ridiculed their nemesis relationship many times)! And of course Ron Cheney Jr and Christopher Lee! The main reason for Ed Wood's failure was financial problems (hard-working funding, one shot per shot, no lighting and sound effects, special effects for fifty cents, stolen octopus that forgot the switch), and the moment he met Orson Welles was like a miracle . (8.5/10)
