It's not rotten, it's rotten so you can't imagine

Is a king of bad movies worthy of our tribute? Now, most directors of domestic films can advertise themselves. Don't they also diligently produce bad films? It's not my reason that you say I'm bad. The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television doesn't allow the filming. Investors randomly change the script, and the star's salary accounts for half. Under such difficult circumstances, I still insist on making my own movie. I am Xiang Ed. Congratulations Wood!
It's so reasonable, it's hard to argue with it. Is Edwood really the ancestor of bad movies? I don't think so. First of all, Hollywood is a big movie market that allows all types of movies to exist. Second, there are many directors who have made bad or B-rated films, but only Edwood is named, not because of his badness, but because of his peculiar imagination.
Therefore, it is not justified to make bad films. As a "perfect" director, Edwood is a director who is not particular about directing, and a narcissistic director. What is commendable is not his attitude, but the incredible plot and plot in his film. Strange brain hole, this is the characteristic of cult films. Cult movies are not the same as bad movies.
There are always people who say that Ed's love for movies is attributed to his lack of talent. This is really the chicken soup that the filmmakers moved themselves. In my opinion, Ed's imagination is precisely the talent. Props strange talent? Day and night conversion strange talent? All kinds of strange talents? As the saying goes, with the hard work of most people, making a movie does not require talent at all. The reason why he sucks is that he is not serious.
As far as this film is concerned, it is a biopic, but it is neither inspirational nor comedy, it should be said to be quite realistic. It not only describes Ed's love for movies, but also points out that he is not serious about movies, only intoxicating himself, and not caring about the art of movies. Of course, as a biopic, this film has well portrayed Edwood and the second male lead Bella Luggs, showing their respective personalities and personalities, joy and distress, and the completeness and depth of the male lead portrayal. I once thought it was a biopic of the second male lead.
Tim Burton's dark shadow style is as usual. The main idea is what I see as a tribute to Hollywood and Hollywood filmmakers, embodied in Ed's blind, fiery love for cinema. Objectively point out Ed's fooling around with movies and emphasize Ed's fascination with movies. Just don't feel it because of love, just forgive and accept the attitude of producing bad films.

    Deliberately saving to watch "The Erotic Men and Women" is indeed right, for example, in the screening room, for example, after being inspired, for example, in the state of courage after writing the script, for example, nervously showing the girlfriend to be criticized, for example, many Mugshot-style scenes... There are too many similarities... This film It also proves what I said before, "Pop's role brother can play": gender cross-dressing, narcissism, perseverance and eternal innocence
