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.

Glad you enjoyed it and being a film buff... - musetap 15:28:35 01/03/25 (0)
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.
