Does anyone love the movie "Ed Wood" as much as I do?

[JennyOmanHill]

It's on again tonight on TCM. I think this is such a good film, and I just love Johnny Depp (whatever happened to him??) and Martin Landau just steals the whole thing!

A brilliant movie which I've only seen once; thanks for reminding me about it. I thought Depp was outrageously hilarious and, yes, Landau was brilliant also. A very refreshing and enjoyable watch which puts so much of what passes as cinematic entertainment to shame.

Hi AllyC!

It's on right now, and this must be the 10th time I'm seeing it. I just enjoy it so much! I love that it's in black and white too.

Now... what ever happened to Johnny Depp??

Now... what ever happened to Johnny Depp??

He's made nearly two dozen movies since, but they fell under your radar. Do these ring a bell?

"Sleepy Hollow" (1999)
"Chocolat" (2000)
"Blow" (2001)

Be sure to watch for "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" (Sept. 2002)

It's a good one, Smiley.

I would also recommend "Don Juan Demarco" and "What's Eating Gilbert Grape"!

Where is he, and what's he doing now??

Yes - one of my favorites.

Ah dearest Jenny,Johnny Depp is making movies,but he doesnt look like he did on 21 Jumpstreet (gosh I loved that show. Okay,so I was a teen in the 80's... )

Ed Wood was funny,too bad I missed seing it this time.

Favorite scenes

Several different scenes keep popping into my mind from this flick. I think Martin Landau's performance was excellent, and loved the scene with him as "Bela" "fighting" the sea monster!

Also, Johnny Depp dressing up in that sweater!
