Waylaid by COVID.

Again.

I'm of a mind pretty much every film we've seen the past few years is at least
20 minutes too long so not surprised this could have been trimmed to 90 minutes.

DaFoe off???? Maybe due to making so many films the past two years, his focus
is sure to slip at some point.

You could SMELL him and Pattinson in The Lighthouse, even when they were outside!

We like Eggers, we'll make it this one eventually.

BTW, after NOT being able to stream Shadow of The Vampire for well
over a year, it became available again a few months ago, so bought it.

'Shadow of the Vampire' . . . - Billy Wonka 23:11:01 01/01/25 (2)
I watched this on Amazon right after seeing Nosferatu. Not being a vampire geek I was not aware that Nosferatu was a retelling of Dracula set in Germany as Widow Stoker wouldn't sell Murnau the film rights. I was wondering why he was referred to as Count Orloff.

Dafoe nearly gave the performance of a lifetime. The nuance of his gestures was incredible. Malkovich was right in there with him. Those two boys were giving it their best. I really enjoyed the feature. It's a good redux.

  likely enjoyed the setting/telling of filming in those days.
  
  SO formal and in this case SO GERMAN!

  One gets so mesmerized by DaFoe and Malkovich's brilliance it's easy to
  miss the incredible humour and overall artistry of the balance.
