Tim Burton’s daring and hilarious ED WOOD arrives on DVD in North American retail outlets today; ten years after its theatrical run, the film is as fresh as ever. Johnny Depp plays Ed Wood, the 1950s moviemaker responsible for some of the worst films ever made . . . yet in the hands of Depp and Burton, Ed Wood emerges as a heroic dreamer and loyal friend rather than a failure. Johnny’s work with Martin Landau, who won an Oscar for his portrayal of star-on-the-skids Bela Lugosi, is some of his finest. Treat yourself to a copy of this classic; bad movies never looked so good. A word of warning, though: Johnny’s ear-to-ear Ed Wood grin is contagious.
