Spot-on reviews here by our favorite critics. *ED WOOD* truly was one of the best films of 1994, and - Sam Jackson's sore-loser reaction notwithstanding - Martin Landau was simply unbeatable in the Best Supporting Actor category this year. Not only was this his 3rd nomination within 6 years, but this was easily his greatest performance. No one else could have won Best Supporting Actor that year. No one else. It was Martin Landau's year in this category. Completely written-off so many years earlier due to his intense alcoholism - which had nearly cost him his life - Landau successfully beat his demons and launched one of the most successful comebacks in film history. R.I.P. Ya did good. 👍

It's because he loved filmmaking, that's true, but he liked doing it as fast as possible, because money was most important (he was always poor) and time is money. Ed's true skill is that he was incredibly fast at everything - typing, directing, casting, everything he did at lightning speed. He was so fast that he could never make time to sit down and think "Is this any good"? Combine that with his optimism and drinking, he was blind to any of his flaws. I learned this from reading his biography

I saw this movie at the NYC premiere . Tim Burton came out before the movie and said a few words (he seemed to be in a hurry and did not seem comfortable in a crowded theatre). The movie was fantastic! When it let out , I spotted SPIKE LEE leaving the theatre with this bitter sourpuss look on his face. LOL. They even gave out movie brochure booklets as we went in..I still have mine. When you watch this TODAY - some feelings may be altered as the lady that played Vampira (at that point ; Tim Burton's girlfriend) had a bitter split up a few years later. She had keys to one of his storage warehouses and was selling his stuff off behind his back ! I wonder if anyone got that giant foam rubber octopus ?

@georgemorley10293 жыл бұрын
I absolutely agree and it’s even more surprising as you say, because I think it’s this scene that reinforces the point Burton was making and that Siskel correctly identified. One of them is this great, visionary auteur, and the other is this absolutely talentless hack, but they still absolutely know where they are both coming from and they both speak the same language when it comes to making movies. They are both true “amateurs” in the absolute sense of doing what they do for love. No matter that they are both at polar opposite ends of the scale, they are living their lives according to the same rules, the same pressures, the same passion. Marvellous scene.

But God love him, you got to love "Glen or Glenda." in his own way, Mr. Wood was a pioneer.

He had a vision and made it happen. Whether you believe his movies are good, bad, or in my opinion so bad they're good, you gotta give the man huge props for actually going out and making the movies he wanted to make. Glenn or Glenda is one hell of an achievement I think. In the 50s being a transvestite was extreme taboo and along with homosexuality it was known as a "contagious disease to the mind". In a time when simply being a transvestite was frowned upon, he went out and made a movie about it. He went out and said "Let me educate you, you predigest assholes.". He's been dead for about 40 years and has a huge fan base. Too bad he was dead by the time he was noticed.

"This is the film they'll remember me by..." applies just as much to Burton as it did to Wood back then.
