Ed Wood - (Tim Burton;1994;USA) - ***1/2
A biopic on the "worst director ever," Ed Wood jr. who made horrible B-Movies, but had an admirable passion for filmmaking.
Oddly enough, I think this is better then Batman Returns, but not a four star movie. I feel like I overrated BR, and this is IMO Burton's best. I love the celebration, rather then spoof of him. Johnny Depp plays Ed Wood with great enthusiasm, and Burton's direction is great. The opening credits are excellent, along with the musical score. At times it's also delightfully funny. Martin Landau is the best actor in this film however, as Bela Lugosi.
