Ed Wood (film)

Ed Wood is a biopic directed by Tim Burton, starring Johnny Depp as the cross-dressing cult movie maker Edward D. Wood, Jr. The film, shot in black and white, was made in 1994  and based in large part on Rudolph Grey's biography Nightmare of Ecstasy. The film focuses on the period in Ed's life when he made his best-known films, and also his relationship with Bela Lugosi (played by Oscar winner Martin Landau), the down-on-his luck actor who had starred as Dracula in the eponymous film. Though a box office failure at the time of its release, it was critically hailed[1] and has subsequently been voted onto IMDB's "top 250" by its users. It resulted in a 1995 Best Supporting Actor Academy Award win for Martin Landau and an Academy Award for Makeup for Rick Baker, Ve Neill and Yolanda Toussieng.
