Larry Parks is Johnny Depp (Ed wood) !


Just watched this movie on the new Karloff box set.Must be honest and say ,I dont think it,s that good but was surprised to see how similar (at times)Larry Parks appeared to be to Johnny Depps portrayal of Ed Wood. Parks character was more outspoken but every now and then I just couldnt help but think of Depp whilst watching him,he looked pretty similar to the Ed Wood character and his voice and mannerisms were similar unless of course it's just Depp sending up Hollywoods idea of what a B movie leading man looked and acted like.

He does look like Depp as Wood, but i think men in the 40s generally wore mustaches in that style. Still a resemblance is there no doubt.
