1897 - Tumblr Posts
A film of desire, lust, loss of innocence.... so wonderfully realised within the framework of bram Stoker's Dracula.
It is terrifying how beautifully the horror of being a vampire is realised here.
The attraction of darkness coupled with sexual awakening like a wet dream.
Passionate desire to perish, oh what an epic gift that would be.... which is not granted to most people.

Gary Oldman at his best
It is packed into the format film via my imagine.
I read it at the age of 14..... and only understood it at around 23.
