"Ed Wood" review

Esta 2022-03-16 09:01:04

Tim Burton + Jonny Depp are my constant motivation to watch this film when the sky is falling, and Tim never disappoints me. Sure enough, the biography of Ed Wood, who was voted to be the worst director in history, is delicious enough.

The film's nonsensical horror atmosphere from beginning to end, the crowd of men and women, sometimes inserted into classical music, the compact and crazy rhythm, is worthy of Ed Wood's persistence, nonsense, ideal temperament, and perverted behavior. But what struck me most directly was the role of Bella Lugosi, which was very infectious. In the gesture of gestures, the frustration in the corners of the eyes of the ex-stars, the superb acting skills and dedicated professionalism after the drug injection, and the dejected voice of "Ed, help me!" in the middle of the night, every time he is accompanied by the old Chai. The music of the Swan Lake scene (very impressed).

After reading the whole article, I couldn't help but think of Stephen Chow and his King of Dramas. It's just a vague reflection, and there's not much correspondence. Maybe the same nonsense idealist. On Baidu 8 to Ed Wood's profile

"The brave Ed Wood later concocted the bubbling "Alien No. 9 Project", just like this, the most grassy production in film history, the most stupid dialogue, The movie with the best performance was born! "Alien No. 9 Project" was later known as WFEM (Worst Film Ever Made, that is, the king of bad films in film history), but in the eyes of loyal fans of cult movies, WFEM is a kind of Honor, just like that, "Alien No. 9" has become a classic for a few people."

Tim and Ed are obviously not the same, the difference between them lies in the superb skills, ED is persistent but lacks high-quality professionalism, His ideals have become unmanageable personal quirks, and Tim has the ability to completely control his own fantasies from Disney's producer to the tempering of many "normal" films, which is why I can't stop him.

In this era, it is not surprising that the idea of ​​​​imagining the sky is not surprising.
