Story Synopsis

Tim Burton’s Ed Wood is the true life-story of the 1950’s low budget movie director, writer, producer and actor who made his dreams of movie-making come true. Undisputedly the “worst filmmaker of all time,” Ed Wood, played by Johnnie Depp, is presented as an odd-ball angora-crazed cross-dresser transvestite who’s simple approach to filmmaking refuses to let bad reviews, unfinished scenes and hostile backers deter him from his goal. Wood, determined to succeed, assembles an oddball collection of misfit actors including Bella Lugosi, the forgotten veteran Hollywood horror star (brilliantly played by Landau, who won the 1994 Academy Award® for Best Supporting Actor).
