Typo above, -l should be -L. Also, it turns out this doesn't work beyond getting logged in without also specifying a specific range of "passive ports" for the ftp server to use and forwarding those through ssh as well. So as others have said, you're probably better off using sftp and/or scp, or setting up a true VPN if you're tied to traditional FTP for some reason.
