Bela Jnr says Ed Wood was a conman who exploited his father. No he didn't. Nobody gave two shits about Lugosi at the time Wood met him...had anyone cared, had he been offered "good" parts, would Bela have done the films Wood proposed? Of course not. Nobody forced Lugosi to hang out with Wood and his odd pals, racing round graveyards dressed as Dracula and having a laugh. He did that cos he LIKED Ed, and Ed *loved* Bela. Lugosi Jnr's just trying to fool HIMSELF about what went on.

I love this! You can just see the love and respect that Bela JR had for his father in the way he talked about him. And I loved seeing how happy Bela SR looked coming out of the hospital and shaking hands with all the nurses. He truly was a wonderful actor and human being.
Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney, Peter Lorre, Conrad Veidt, some of the greats of classic cinema, and it's wonderful to see movies like "The Artist" returning to that style. Bring back the old ways! :)

Its amazing how much he looks like his father

umm actually what he said is actually the complete opposite of the truth. if anything people only know about dracula, and frankenstein and white zombie. but only fans know about his late years, and his decent into alcoholism.now i may be judging, but i don't think he knew that much about his father. i mean he was raised by his mother was'nt he? i may be wrong but, can't we forget about the craziness in his life? and focus on happier moments. like dracula, white zombie, and even the ed wood films

There is only one Bela Lugosi and I'm glad to have seen his work. Christopher Lee was the Dracula of my time and he was fantastic but he never had the charm of Bela's character. I think Langella got closer with that aspect but was too good looking to pull off the terror part. Bela had both. To me he will always be the ultimate Dracula. You certainly wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley in full makeup and costume.

Wow, he's handsome

BLJR was a lawyer who took on copyright infringement and abuses, esp. when it came to his father's image. BLSR was doing what he could to get by and a lot of people were exploiting his Dracula image. He might not have had to stoop so low to do Ed Wood's movies. Keep up the important work, BLJR.
Who else thinks he should play as Dracula in a new film?
