One of the best directors working today. Movie was so good.

@18:50 Leptirica <3 by Djordje Kadijevic (She-Butterfly aka Leptirica)

tragic seeing the life sucked out of eggers after being forced to say the same things in interviews over and over again

Just saw the movie today  it’s fuckin awesome. The scene where Thomas gets in the carriage might be one of my favorite creepy scenes in any movie EVER

He's not a multiple interview type of guy 😂 give him one or two at the most  he is a true artist

Saw it at the theatre yesterday. Love this movie!!! Masterpiece!

I (Italian) stumbled into Leptirica on Tubi during a series of "we watch slavic horror" sting with my Polish better half. I was so surprised when I heard Eggers naming it!
We absolutely loved the movie BTW, and the specific vampire concept.

I'm glad the director pronounces the title correctly. So many reviewers online pronounce it incorrectly that I thought I was taking crazy pills and had to check.

Thoroughly enjoyed the film, and I particularly like the rendition of the Count, bushy moustache and all. The translation of him into a undead noble, rather than something closer to Max Shreck’s ‘creature’ was a really great choice. I had the privilege of seeing it on IMAX- the HDR is really important, unfortunately I think it’ll translate particularly badly if it ends up streaming or (even worse) DVD.

This Dorier Kovich fellow sounds interesting. I'll have to check out that film of his.

Nosferatu was a film made by a group of occultists for occultists in Weimar Berlin. Murnau, Galeen and Grau. OTO. Etc.

I can only hope Robert gets introduced to Gogol’s stories

As far as movie Leptirica goes. It’s not that vampire in Serbia looks like werewolf. Its that there was no taxonomy in vocal folklore tradition and that some people described it as a shadow and some as hairy and most as looking abnormally healthy or red in cheeks when it drinks a lot of blood etc. Clear categories are modern concepts. Before it was a word of mouth of supposed eye witnesses or some old fairytales or events made up by many different people.  

There is also a fact that Werewolf and Vampire are demons who intersect like in Coppola Dracula where he turns into a werewolf but he is a vampire. Or if someone is simply a werewolf he has same characteristics as a vampire in terms of modus of behavior and other attributes except the form itself and connection to the wolf totem.

Would love to see what he would do with Murnau's other masterpiece Faust

just bought that sweater lol

Like if you know robert eggers is one of those directors that will make movies about older times like Christopher Columbus the mayflower jack the ripper and world war 1 etc. He will never do a movie from the 80s or present day

Nosferatu 2024 is the greatest vampire film ever made

I would sum up Dracula as the Turkish ice cream trick.

What kind of shirt is that

Is eggers into the occult like the og nosferatu director and writer ?
