Martin Landau to Appear at Aero Double Feature

The Santa Monica theater will play two of of the character actor's films, "Ed Wood" and "Crimes and Misdemeanors."

He's not Ben Affleck fresh off a Golden Globe win (sorry, that event is sold out), but his performance in the supporting role of Bela Lugosi in Ed Wood did earn him the Academy Award.

Martin Landau is scheduled to appear in person Saturday night at the Aero Theatre on Montana Avenue for a discussion between screenings of the biopic about cult filmmaker Ed Wood and the drama Crimes and Misdemeanors, in which Landau stars with Woody Allen.

Now, Dracula, that's a role that requires talent!
