Shadow of the Vampire (2000)

Shadow of the Vampire: Directed by E. Elias Merhige. With John Malkovich, Willem Dafoe, Udo Kier, Cary Elwes. The filming of Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (1922) is hampered by the fact that its star Max Schreck is taking the role of a vampire far more seriously than seems humanly possible.

“First, for lovely performance of Vicky Krieps. For the memories about love obsession . For a sort of captivity near old relatives and pink dreams. For what to could be defined as Bovarism. A woman. Living in past. Her father. The opportunity to meet the love of her life. And the end of illusion becoming the happiness so long time expected and desired. A beautiful film about a so delicate subject . Because it represents inspired exploration of deep solitude. The great virtue – it is the perfect adaptation of a waisted life.”
