@lemorab110 ай бұрын
@@richardlahan7068 I don't understand this either. Lucy Westenra was Dracula's first victim in England, made a vampire, and Mina Murray almost became one, but was ultimately saved with Dracula's death. I haven't seen the Langella film since it first came out in 1978, and I don't remember if Arthur Holmwood, Quincy Morris, and Jack Seward were in it or not. I assumed they didn't film the Transylvania sequence due to budget constraints. I thought bringing the timeframe forward to about 1910, with its fashions and motor cars, was interesting. I liked this movie, Langella was a great Dracula, but I liked the Coppola film better, even though the special effects were sometimes a bit too much. Gary Oldman was also a great Dracula and so was Louis Jourdan, in a much less well known film, made in the 1970's, I think.

Yet he was able to live another decade after finishing Dracula. And some would call this ironic that since this was a vampire movie, Laurence Olivier had a disease in which he would bled continuously by a slight 'nick' or scratch.

With supreme irony, it is Dracula who denounces Van Helsing's use of the Host against him as "Sacrilege!". Which it would be in real life; no lay person is allowed access to the Eucharist for any reason, except to consume it as a communicant. (In the novel, Van Helsing claims that he has a dispensation to use the Host in this manner; but, in reality, no such dispensation would ever be granted.) Dracula's reaction has a fascinating subtext. The real Dracula (Vlad Tepes, 1431-1476) is remembered as a Christian warrior-prince, who defended southeastern Europe from the invading Muslims; when Bram Stoker's fictional avatar tells Jonathan Harker the history of his region, he takes great pride in recounting these events. It would be delightfully ironic -- and more than a little tragic -- if Dracula, even in his undead state, which forces him to flee from the Sacrament, were still trying to cling to some shred of the eminence as a warrior for Christ which he had earned in life.
