Ed Wood

Yesterday in Alans lecture we watched a very interesting movie which was based on and around the life of film director "Ed Wood Jr". Ed wood was born in New york on the 10th of October 1924 but died at the age of 54 on the 10th of December 1978 in California because of heart failure. Unfortunate for Ed Wood Jr, he was ignored through a pretty unsuccessful career where he probably directed three of the worst films of all time, which got him his title of "worst director of all time".

The movie was written, produced and released in 1995, Directed by Tim Burton. The film is based upon Ed wood, who by the end of his life/career became most acclaimed as the worst director of all time. The main role of Ed Wood is played by none other than Johnny Depp, which is completely understandable as it is a Tim Burton movie.

Three of Ed Woods most famous flops are posted as videos below the post!

Glen/Glenda - I Led Two Lives - 

 

Plan 9 From Outer Space -
