    A review by Filipe Manuel Neto

    Written by Filipe Manuel Neto on Tue Sep 12 2023
    **A sincere tribute to the man and his work, full of bizarreness, humor, artificial octopuses and angora.** I've been wanting to see this for a while now, and the opportunity finally came. Very intelligently directed by Tim Burton, it is a brief biography that honors Ed Wood, reckoned as the worst director Hollywood has ever known (although that title is disputed by other more recent directors). I already knew Ed Wood's work, I've seen one or two of his films, and I can guarantee that his fame is justified: the films are the most amateurish imaginable and the number of errors and problems...
