Ed Wood Scene

[@ComptonCool]

I'll never understand why Johnny Depp was never nominated for an Oscar for this role. The dude was brilliant in this.

[@ComptonCool]

@denari z Hmmmmm interesting call

[@nerblebun]

@ComptonCool: Agree 100% sir, Depp should have at least been nominated, if not win the Oscar for his character Ed Wood in this terrific 1994 film Produced & Directed by Tim Burton; however, Martin Landau came through with his portrayal of Bela Lugosi winning the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture. The film also won an Oscar for Best Makeup. Even though Ed Wood was financially unsuccessful, returning only $5.9 Million against an $18 Million budget, it's still a very enjoyable movie and in my top 100 favorite movies of all times. By the way, I've worked in Hollywood movie productions as a stunt man in my younger days & have a movie collection of nearly 12,000 DVD's. It's refreshing to see a young man who appreciates the subtle nuances of films shot in black & white.... this film in particular.

Yeah Martin is great too his portrayal of Bela really reintroduced him to people. I think Bela was just a bit like Nic Cage who gets ridiculed for taking crappy roles too but just really loves to work and still gives his performances his all regardless if it's a major picture or some B movie garbage.

[@RSTI191]

@@AnnaLVajda My wife and I had the pleasure of meeting him at a Ralph's supermarket back in 2008 or so. Being a Universal Monsters fan, I complimented him on his Bela performance, told him it was iconic. He was so humble about it. A couple of others came over said the same. He was a gentleman to a fault. Such a nice guy..real pleasure to speak with. He asked if I was an actor, no music is my art. "Ah,, nice.." It's a great memory I reflect on now and then. RIP Mr. Landau..

I love Johnny facial expressions lol he killed this role

[@adamzanzie]

As a filmmaker, I find these scenes inspirational. Ed Wood may not have been a great filmmaker, but he loved making movies, and he figured out that it's not what you know -- it's *who* you know. A filmmaker can have all the passion in the world, yet still be shut out by the film industry, which largely favors experienced directors who are already in the system. Ed Wood couldn't figure out how to get into the system. Yet his passion is what endeared Bela Lugosi to him, and armed with Lugosi, he managed to get his foot in the door. It's neither talent nor passion which gets you into the system. It's your connections. That's the sad truth. Ed Wood was not a successful filmmaker, but he was still lucky to have gotten as far as he did.

[@williamshaw9047]
