Tim Burton is simply a miracle in the history of cinema, he is goth, he is alien. Robot No. 9, Zombie Bride, Batman Forever, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, Todd the Sweeper, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, I never like to stare at one person's movies. But I still have to say that the films I watched on and off turned out to belong to him. He is also expected to direct "Pirates of the Caribbean 5".
He, let Johnny Depp pay tribute to him!
Johnny Depp is simply another miracle in the history of cinema, he's charming, he's versatile. Zombie Bride, Edward Scissorhands, Todd the Sweeper, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Alice in Wonderland, The Traitor, Pirates of the Caribbean 1, 2, 3, 4, and more. He was soft when he won the award, he was so intangible, he twisted his body with a blurred smoky makeup, and he confided his grievances on the expressionless Scissorhands face, he was the only Johnny depp.
To pay tribute to the idol, Tim Burton made his life into this biographical film - "ed wood>. Johnny Depp played him perfectly - Edward D. Wood Jr.
Although this person has too many imperfections, not imperfect, but a complete failure, in the eyes of others, he is a loser. God gave him extraordinary enthusiasm, but he gave him no talent at all. He also wanted to make good films, but he always made bad films.
His name is Edwood. Explanation in Baidu Entry - Edward D. Wood Jr. was born on October 10, 1924 and died on December 10, 1978. The famous American director, known for making bad movies, is known as the most rubbish director in history, but he is respected by future generations for his unremitting efforts and persistent pursuit of movies.
In "ed wood", Tim Burton talks about how Edwood made those bad movies. He has always been a hard worker. He thinks that his works are the most perfect, he wrote his own script, he participated in it himself, and he acted as a true character in "Sudden Boys and Husbands". Because this film is about a transvestite, and Edwood himself is a transvestite. He unabashedly revealed to the world, to the girlfriend he met later, that Johnny Depp grasped the expression of hesitant to speak extremely well, and perfectly interpreted his character.
He filmed the very fucked "Alien No. 9" and was later known as WFEM (Worst Film Ever Made), but in the eyes of loyal fans of cult movies, WFEM is an honor , In this way, "Alien No. 9 Project" has become a classic for a few heavy tasters. I have seen this film on the Internet, and "ed wood" also tells how he made this film, to the effect that the aliens invaded the earth eight times and suffered setbacks. This is the ninth attempt, and it has joined forces with zombies. There are zombies, vampires, aliens, space suits made of metal foil, spaceships stacked on paper plates, and the Hollywood Hills with paper paste. For a lot of crossover shots, Edwood says, it's just that natural and true.
It is estimated that it is definitely not a horror disaster film, but a visual disaster film.
But if he's just a bad film director, he won't get so much respect. He always carried the innate optimism. He was so strong, so Ah Q, with a smile on his face, never giving in and never giving up. His directing ability is limited, but his spiritual strength has inspired and moved many people, including Tim Burton and Kubrick. His life can be described as absurd; his life can be described as ridiculous. He may be the only one who can be knocked off the stage by the audience at the movie premiere.
Edwood had an important friendship and an important love in his life. That year-end friendship was with actress Bella Lugues, who played the vampire Count Dracula in the film "Dracula". The film about vampire Dracula is like the sands of the Ganges, but he interprets its noble temperament. The most classic one. When Ed meets him, Bella is already destitute and destitute. They fell in love at first sight and loved friendship. Bella was already very weak when she was filming the scene with the octopus. In the late autumn night, he still resolutely jumped into the icy pool. Ed then told him that the fake octopus had lost its motor, and had Bella grab its feet and act like a live octopus.
She came after the ex-girlfriend dumped him after he couldn't stand his transvestites and never succeeded. She accepts his cross-dressing, she accepts his failure. She loves him and he loves her. Such love. . . . . . enough.
"ed wood> also has a famous name - "the days of love in Hollywood". This love is friendship, it is love. Edwood's failed life has gained two precious loves. In another sense, his life can be considered a success. If he is an ordinary person, he has two cows in one room, his wife and children are on the kang head, and no one will say that he has failed. It is a pity that he is a man with a dream, and he will fail if he has a dream.
Even if he failed, he was worthy of himself. He never thinks he's making bad movies, he thinks he's making the best movies, he's not arrogant, he's not arrogant. He doesn't make movies for the box office, he makes movies for the movie's sake. He devoted his life to the film, his film is bad, don't have to applaud his bad film, but the director's feelings can be read from the back of his film. You don't have to like his bad movies, but you will definitely be moved by his perseverance and uplifting spirit.
He needs to teach all the bad film directors in China today a lesson: what is a movie and what is making a movie. Even if he is from the 1950s, he is better than many directors of bad Chinese films.
He also needs to teach all of us young people a lesson: what is dream-seeking and what is attachment. Even though it has been almost 50 years since he passed away, his enterprising spirit of struggle is still worth learning from.
Hats off to Edwood!
