Ed Wood (1994)
Plot summary
Directed by: Tim Burton
Starring: Bill Murray, Jeffrey Jones, Johnny Depp, Martin Landau, Patricia Arquette, Sarah Jessica Parker
A biopic of the life and work of the legendary 'worst director of all time', Edward D.Wood, Jr. (Depp), concentrating on the best-known period of his life in the 1950s, when he made 'Glen or Glenda', 'Bride of the Monster' and 'Plan 9 From Outer Space', and focusing on both his transvestism and his touching friendship with the once great but now ageing and unemployed horror star Bela Lugosi (Landau).
Continuity mistake: When Ed is filming Bela Lugosi's last footage in front of his house, he is standing on the sidewalk, facing the house. From the camera's point of view there is a concrete walk leading to the porch, yet when there's a cut to the house's view, the walk is gone. It's just grass.
Edward D. Wood, Jr.: I met Bela Lugosi.
Dolores Fuller: Why, I thought he was dead.
Edward D. Wood, Jr.: No, he's very much alive. Well, sort of.
