Ed Wood? I'm a big fan of his work--it takes a lot to pursue a dream when you have absolutely zero talent. He did what he loved and will be remembered as a passionate if hilariously inept film-maker. It's too bad he died before he could see his movies rise in the public consciousness.
It saddens me to see Hollywood continue to throw money into mindless, meaningless crap. Speaking as someone who wants to go into the film business as a director/producer it is frustrating to see the screw ups of the world get their chance to fail time and time and time again while talented people are overlooked simply because they're not rich or connected.
Hollywood likes to lecture on how the rich get everything handed to them, but in typical lefty fashion it's someone else's responsible to correct the problem. They're going to just keep promoting it.
