The Haunted World Of Ed Wood

Following on from the lovely Taschen! thread ....

Edward Wood jnr. 1924-1978

Ed Wood: Glen or Glenda?

"How could it be that Ed Wood, Jr., the young man who wore a woman's bra and panties at the Battle of Tarawa in World War II, went on to become the Orson Welles of low-budget films?"

He directed several extraordinary films, has been long sneered at by fools as the worst director of all time, Johnny Depp was thrilled to play him in Tim Burton's ultra-romanticised version of his life story and there's even a Church of Ed Wood who take their Messiah's work very seriously indeed. This will be of no use to you who don't have broadband, and those that do, you'll have to get in quick as surely it will be removed, but by way of introduction, hit the link to watch the entire 1 hour 52 minute documentary:
