He is still known as the worst director of all time, though anyone who thinks about this for more than a few seconds will realize that there are thousands more directors whose names they don’t know who are less talented. But as portrayed by Johnny Depp in Tim Burton’s beautiful black and white film, he less terrible than just painfully naive to his lack of talent. Rather, what Wood has is endless enthusiasm. Also, a desire to dress up in women’s clothing. Specifically angora sweaters. Depp is totally game here as the cross-dressing director, at times taking his performance right up to the mugging line, but never once crossing it.
