Ed Wood key art

Movies were his passion. Women were his inspiration. Angora sweaters were his weakness.

The sweet center of the movie is Wood's resurrection of horror actor Bela Lugosi, a despairing drug addict who is played brilliantly by Martin Landau.

Ed Wood doesn’t really give us the inside of Wood’s head, but it does treat imaginatively a number of Wood movies that retain a certain fascination ...

Ed Wood [is] a comedy of the ridiculous in which the ridiculous turns unexpectedly sublime.

... Tim Burton’s loving film biography... is perhaps the most loving portrait of a filmmaker ever put on screen.
