The mostly true story of the legendary "worst director of all time", who, with the help of his strange friends, filmed countless B-movies without ever becoming famous or successful.

Cinema Atlas Connection
The other one, and this is completely different, but I really love the movie Ed Wood. And I feel like there’s a whole generation of filmmakers who were formed on this idea of, 'I'm going to make the movie I want to make' and 'Ed Wood' is such a beautiful example of that.
