Description
Home? We have no homes! The good news is that while Lorelai may be feeling hunted and despised, we’re just feeling like we got to watch another good movie about the craziness of making movies. This time it’s 1994′s Ed Wood, the real-life story of the unusual Edward D. Wood, Jr. and one of the first of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp’s unusual collabs. Amid the low-budget campiness of films he made (like Plan 9 From Outer Space), we ask the big questions: Was Ed Wood really the worst director of all time? How does the movie about him connect with Edgar Allan Poe? And will Lorelai ever feel at home again?
