Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens
1922 · 89 min · DE
Directed by F. W. Murnau
F.W. Murnau's 1922 Prana Film production is an unauthorized Dracula. Max Schreck's Count Orlok arrives in Wisborg with a cargo of rats. Greta Schröder and Gustav von Wangenheim are the couple who wait for him. Florence Stoker sued. In 1925 a German court ordered the negative and the prints destroyed. Copies had already left the country, which is why the film is still here. The shot people remember is not the face. It is the shadow on the stairs.
