The Movie: Ed Wood (1994)
What Is It?: Tim
Burton’s greatest film sacrificed none of his signature aesthetic quirks to
tell the story of notoriously awful filmmaker Ed Wood, who liked to dress in
panties and angora sweaters while hanging out with Hollywood kooks and making
movies about space vampires. Needless to say, Martin Landau stuffs the film
under his cape and walks away with it.
Why Today?: On
this day in 1978, the real Ed Wood died.
