NOSFERATU: NEW RESTORATION
F.W Murnau | Germany | 1922 | 94 min
Sunlight wasn’t always fatal to vampires. That idea first entered the public consciousness in Nosferatu…the illegally made, now widely beloved 1922 adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. The German Expressionist landmark turns 100 this year. Due to a legal battle with Stoker’s estate…Nosferatu spent its early life on the brink of erasure. But its narrative and visual language have echoed through the decades.
Like so much of modern horror, Nosferatu is a film where darkness consumes, light liberates, and color — yes, color — foreshadows both hope and doom. It may come as a surprise to those familiar with Nosferatu that while it was captured in monochrome at the time, Murnau’s silent classic isn’t a black and white movie as we understand it today. In fact, color is one of its most significant narrative elements. Some surviving versions continue to be presented sans color, but a tinted French film print also outlived a legal order to have all known copies destroyed.-Polygon.com
