Ed Wood has a kind of dedication to movies, but also to dreams. He often talks about Orson Wilson's "Citizen Kane" when he was 26 years old, as a way to encourage himself.
Ed Wood was born in the wrong era, because there were very few movies about vampires, zombies and science fiction in that era, and there are only a few famous ones: ("Vampire Dracula", "Frankenstein", "The Day the Earth Stood Still"). In an era when literary films and noir films occupy most of the country, the situation of such films is undoubtedly just a small sapling to survive in the cracks. Despite this, he also dared to try new things. He was not afraid of hiring outdated and amateur actors, and he was not afraid of making a hodgepodge of movies. What was even more clever was that he actually brought the spirit of "Guan Gong and Qin Qiong" into full play. "Project 9 from Outer Space" is the perfect interpretation of his film style. This is also a kind of spoof movie. It can be said without hesitation that Ed Wood is also one of the originators of horror spoof movies (laughs).
"Ed Wood" is Tim Burton's best gift to all self-made filmmakers. Peter Jackson and Sam Raimi, who we know well, are good examples. The Playing People Trilogy made the two of them famous, because there is a thing called "luck" in this world. Having said that, regrets came to my heart again.
"Ed Wood" expresses Tim Burton's affirmation of him, and the biography of him on the screen also shows the respect of modern filmmakers to the older generation of filmmakers.
PS Uwe Bauer, a veritable bad film director among modern filmmakers, I don't think anyone will give him a biography in his life.
