supreme performances by all involved. The movie had everything: comedy, drama, silliness, cross dressing, love, ambition, art, homosexuality, but it didn't loose itself in all that the way one of Ed's pictures would have, ironic. I adored Bill Murray's performance.

KP and I watch that film regularly, and quote it often "I don't fee so gooood eddy." "Well ya look just peachy to me!" Johnny depp plays such convincing fringe element types. His acting has in Ed wood has inspired us to search out his other films (such as Dead Man, Edward Scissorhands) and we have yet to be disappointed.

Wow, "when life is stranger than fiction" "and you couldn't make this stuff up" are two good quotes for Ed's life. (KP and I also read the book that inspired the movie...excellent read)

We have a debate when it comes to Ed Wood.
KP says he was a man driven by his art but was just not good at it.

I say he was a man who liked art but was driven by making a fast buck...a true artist would have a sense of subtlety...espesially in their chosen field. I think he enjoyed picturing himself with notoriety and fame...the same way he idolized Orson Wells the man, more than his work. Who will know for sure though?
