Description
Over 100 years ago, one of the most famous monsters that would wreak endless havoc on the mortal world first graced the silver screen. The first *unofficial* adaptation of Stoker's novel featured Count Orlok in Nosferatu, and Sophia and Nick start by discussing why this silent classic is not only an important early portrayal, but also created so much drama. After 50 other films showcasing Dracula came Francis Ford Coppola's opulent Bram Stoker’s Dracula (18:22). Listen to a thorough breakdown of the story, how the filmmakers crafted such a lush technical vision, and what they think The Academy snubbed.
