0:00:00 > 0:00:03This programme contains some strong language.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Albin, please.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06We'll shoot these scenes in reverse order

0:03:06 > 0:03:10in the unlikely event that Gustav can build emotionally

0:03:10 > 0:03:13with lyricism you'd do well to emulate. Albin, clear the set.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33Roll camera and...

0:03:33 > 0:03:35begin.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40Nice pussy.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43Nice pussy.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48Miaow.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52You're very content, aren't you? You live in a nice house,

0:03:52 > 0:03:54you wear pretty clothes

0:03:54 > 0:03:57and you're married to a kind man who's promised to love you for ever.

0:04:00 > 0:04:05You have no inkling what lives at the bottom of the flower box.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07No sense of longing,

0:04:08 > 0:04:11no notion even of death itself.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20And...

0:04:20 > 0:04:24end. And print it. Have we established pathos?

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Perfectly. In one take.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36Let's get the film to the lab immediately.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38I'll need to see rushes tomorrow.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Albin?

0:04:40 > 0:04:43- Yeah, Friedrich? - Hurry and strike your set.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46As you never hesitate to remind me, it's costing a fortune daily.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49Shooting outside the studios will cost too much more, Friedrich.

0:04:49 > 0:04:54But such is the price of genius. Thank God, an end to this artifice!

0:05:02 > 0:05:04Nicely done, Greta.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08You are developing in a number of lovely ways. For a moment,

0:05:08 > 0:05:10I thought I saw a premonition of evil cross your face.

0:05:10 > 0:05:15It wouldn't surprise me with all the spooky shit you've been saying to me.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17It's important for the realistic effect.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21But why must we leave Berlin at the start of the theatre season?

0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Has your man arranged the cars? - Yes, two.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28Do you have any idea the parts I've been offered at long last? The salaries?

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- Will that be enough? - It has to be.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33They're the only cars in the region.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Herr Doctor, you're ignoring me.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39There was a time when you didn't ignore me.

0:05:39 > 0:05:43Why would you possibly want to act in a play when you can act in a film?

0:05:43 > 0:05:46A theatrical audience gives me life

0:05:46 > 0:05:49while this THING takes it from me.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54Greta, Ellen is a woman who discovers

0:05:54 > 0:05:56the ultimate expression of love

0:05:56 > 0:06:00and the most exquisite pain imaginable.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Does that sound familiar?

0:06:07 > 0:06:10It's a very demanding role.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13It is the role that will make you great as an actress.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16Consider it a sacrifice for your art.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22Work quickly, people. We have a train to catch.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Albin, what did you give the cat?

0:06:26 > 0:06:29- Laudanum. - Laudanum?

0:06:29 > 0:06:32It's hard to keep the damn thing docile under the lights. Did it show?

0:06:32 > 0:06:34It looked a little pickled.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37Not as much as Greta.

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Things seem to be well in hand.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Friedrich?

0:06:41 > 0:06:43Friedrich?

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Friedrich, we have to talk about the vampire.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48Not now, Albin, it's nearly dark.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Wrap things up for me here.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53Make sure the imbecile Gustav does not miss the train

0:06:53 > 0:06:55and I'll see you all in the morning.

0:06:55 > 0:06:59What kind of clothes should I pack for him? What make-up? How tall is he?

0:06:59 > 0:07:01Please tell me, Friedrich.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04Does anybody know where he's running off to?

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Perhaps he has a woman. - Or a man.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09TANGO MUSIC

0:07:42 > 0:07:47We cross the border into Czechoslovakia, a few hours into our journey.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50Herr Doctor's already filmed some of the exteriors there.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52- He has? - You didn't know?

0:07:52 > 0:07:54No.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58Strange. Well, you can assume we'll be filming all the Hutter scenes there.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00The scenes between him and the vampire?

0:08:00 > 0:08:02Dracula lived in Transylvania.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Strictly speaking, this is not Dracula.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07The author's widow wouldn't sell us the rights to the novel.

0:08:07 > 0:08:11So, who's playing Count Dracula? I mean Orlock.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13His name's Schreck.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15Max Schreck.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22He was in the Reinhart company when Murnau was directing.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24Schreck? You sure you have the name right?

0:08:24 > 0:08:29- He's a character actor.- Who told you he was playing the vampire?

0:08:29 > 0:08:33- Herr Doctor told me.- I never heard of any Max Schreck in that company.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Herr Doctor told me he was with Stanislasky in Moscow.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Oh. One of the Russian school.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41As part of his preparation, he submerges his own personality

0:08:41 > 0:08:44into that of the character he plays.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46That is why he is not travelling with us.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50Herr Doctor told me he went to Czechoslovakia weeks ago

0:08:50 > 0:08:53to absorb the flavour of the place, I suppose.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56Herr Doctor also told me that when we get there and start filming,

0:08:56 > 0:09:00Max Schreck will only appear to us in full make-up

0:09:00 > 0:09:04and costume as the vampire.

0:09:04 > 0:09:09And furthermore, we will only film him at night.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13And why wasn't I told about it? I'm the producer.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Well, he told me.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Tell me you're not too pretty to work for me.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36- Yes, sir. - I love the cinema.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Friedrich, I just realised this morning

0:09:39 > 0:09:43our financiers, they don't know what picture you are making.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45The crew don't know what picture you're making,

0:09:45 > 0:09:48the cast don't know what picture you're making.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52And now, I don't know what picture you're making. Are you happy?

0:09:52 > 0:09:55- Albin...? - I know, tell them nothing.

0:09:58 > 0:10:03Gentlemen, I'm Albin Grau, producer and art director of this picture.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06Is is true Murnau is filming Stoker's Dracula?

0:10:06 > 0:10:10Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau is Germany's greatest filmmaker.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14In a class with such masters as Griffiths and Eisenstein.

0:10:14 > 0:10:18At present, he is supervising every detail

0:10:18 > 0:10:20of this unique on-location expedition.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22The major part, who's going to play?

0:10:22 > 0:10:26- Thank you, gentlemen. - Will you be filming in Germany?

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Halt! Halt!

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Our battle, our struggle

0:11:10 > 0:11:12is to create art.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Our weapon is the moving picture.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Because we have the moving picture,

0:11:18 > 0:11:21our paintings will grow and recede,

0:11:21 > 0:11:25our poetry will be shadows that lengthen

0:11:25 > 0:11:27and conceal.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30Our light will play across living faces

0:11:30 > 0:11:32that laugh and agonise.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36And our music will linger and finally overwhelm

0:11:36 > 0:11:41because it will have a context as certain as the grave.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49We are scientists engaged in the creation of memories.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55But our memory will neither blur nor fade.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09What is this?

0:12:10 > 0:12:13It looks like blood.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39CAR HORN

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Good evening.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49Herr Doctor,

0:12:49 > 0:12:52- we've been expecting you. - Will you see to our baggage?

0:12:52 > 0:12:54The wagon train has arrived.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56And here's the late mule.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Well, what a terrible journey that was.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01How long have you been here?

0:13:01 > 0:13:04- Not long.- Don't tell me we have a busy schedule tomorrow.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Gustav, no exterior shots at the end, some shots in here.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09Arrival of Hutter's carriage. Welcome.

0:13:11 > 0:13:16Friedrich, I'd like to plan for these night scenes. When are they to be filmed?

0:13:16 > 0:13:19They will be filmed soon.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21I won't require much planning.

0:13:21 > 0:13:26But I need extra help to set up the lights. Can you give me some notice so I can prepare?

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Herr Doctor, where are the extras?

0:13:28 > 0:13:30You are looking at them.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36- These people cannot act. - They don't need to act.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38They need to be.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Wolf?

0:13:51 > 0:13:53Herr Muller?

0:13:57 > 0:13:59HE PANTS

0:14:00 > 0:14:02Sorry, Wolfgang.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50CAR ENGINE

0:15:44 > 0:15:46GASPS AND GRUNTS

0:15:48 > 0:15:51All right, Hutter, it's been a fitful night,

0:15:51 > 0:15:54but you wake refreshed, eager to continue your journey

0:15:54 > 0:15:59to the castle of the nobleman who may very well make your fortune.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Wait, Gustav. What is that beside you? Yes.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Pick it up.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12It's a book about vampires.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Ah! Yes, now you remember.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21It was put there last night by the superstitious peasants,

0:16:21 > 0:16:25the ones who warned you not to enter Orlock's castle.

0:16:25 > 0:16:30The ones who warned you not even to dare to speak his name.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Nospheratu.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36The unclean, the undead.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39Lest you invoke the creature itself.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43Very good, Gustav.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45- Herr Doctor... - Albin?

0:16:45 > 0:16:47- I am sorry, Doctor, but... - Albin!

0:16:47 > 0:16:49- Yeah, Friedrich? - End.

0:16:49 > 0:16:53Albin, a native has wandered into my frame!

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Come. Come.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03Wolf! Wolf!

0:17:03 > 0:17:06What is the matter with everyone?

0:17:06 > 0:17:10She will not let us go on filming unless we replace the crosses.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12Am I really being bothered with this?

0:17:12 > 0:17:14Herr Doctor, I warned you.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18You should be more concerned about these things.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20The crosses are not for decoration.

0:17:22 > 0:17:26We will put them back. They just overwhelm our composition.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Albin, the camera.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36We must go. Henrick, what's this scene number?

0:17:36 > 0:17:38- Um, 23. - Quickly.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43Yes. Albin? That's fine. He'll take care of it.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46Go in, Henrick. On either side, you open the door when I give you the cue.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Ready? Are we ready?

0:17:50 > 0:17:52And roll camera.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Iris in.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57And...

0:17:57 > 0:18:01begin. Gustav, you walk in very slowly.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05Very slowly. Yes.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07Feel your bag. Make sure you have your contracts.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12You're afraid.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Who was the person who brought you?

0:18:16 > 0:18:18You must go into the castle.

0:18:18 > 0:18:22The castle calls you, the gates suddenly open.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27You must go in.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29That's excellent, Gustav.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31Go forward.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35Go forward.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39And...end!

0:18:39 > 0:18:41- Wolf? - Yeah, it's OK.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44I'm in charge of that construction.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Who built on this? We have an agreement.

0:18:46 > 0:18:50Albin, Albin, I sent some local workers ahead this morning.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53I'm sorry, I didn't explain to you. There's a generator in the courtyard.

0:18:53 > 0:18:58Just past the tree on the right. Get to work. Henrick, take this camera.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Stay here for a moment.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04Wolf, your camera's here. Set it up

0:19:04 > 0:19:06as quickly as possible, yes?

0:19:09 > 0:19:11Roll camera.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22Gustav, you move forward very slowly,

0:19:22 > 0:19:24heading always for the tunnel.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30This is perfect. Just a dark hole

0:19:30 > 0:19:34that has been unexplored, untouched

0:19:34 > 0:19:36for a long, long time.

0:19:38 > 0:19:42And then one night...

0:19:44 > 0:19:47something crawls out.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Hutter...

0:19:55 > 0:19:57meet Count Orlock.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59RUMBLING

0:20:07 > 0:20:09HEARTBEAT

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Gustav, you must follow him into the tunnel.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56Yes, going in.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Make your way down.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03And...

0:21:03 > 0:21:05end!

0:21:14 > 0:21:15Wolf?

0:21:17 > 0:21:20- HE PANTS - My god.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Wolf!

0:21:23 > 0:21:24Got it.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27Remarkable.

0:21:27 > 0:21:31The overture to our symphony of horrors.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33Genius. Hutter, genius.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38He is not from the Reinhart company.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Hm. Congratulations, Gustav.

0:21:47 > 0:21:51Yes. Yes, I was good, wasn't I?

0:21:51 > 0:21:54I saw his face. His face.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57Where did you find him really?

0:21:57 > 0:22:01In that hole. Gustav,

0:22:01 > 0:22:04- this was your finest moment. - Good, Gustav.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08Gentlemen, let's pack up. Shooting is completed for the night.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11That's it? We came all the way for one scene?

0:22:11 > 0:22:14I would have driven anywhere at any time for that look of Gustav's.

0:22:14 > 0:22:18I'd like to congratulate Herr Schreck on his appearance.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21For the remainder of the shoot, he will be Count Orlock

0:22:21 > 0:22:23to himself and to all of us.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Just leave him alone. He will be completely authentic.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30He is not interested in our questions or our prayers or our conversations.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33He's chasing an altogether different ghost.

0:22:33 > 0:22:36Friedrich, come quick. It's Wolf.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39GROANS

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Come on, Wolf.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20- Is my room ready? - Yes.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32Nospheratu.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34Ah, this is too much.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38Answer me, Herr Doctor, is this some stunt to evoke fear in us?

0:23:38 > 0:23:42Henrick, stop being so theatrical. You'll wake the whole house.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Go on up, Wolf, and have a brandy. You'll feel better in the morning.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49What's happened?

0:23:49 > 0:23:52He's ill, obviously. Take him upstairs and then go outside

0:23:52 > 0:23:56and help Herr Grau with the camera equipment.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59Bring the camera straight to my room.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02I'll prepare for tomorrow.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11CHATTER

0:24:16 > 0:24:19Albin, we need to clear the table. We'll need the ink well,

0:24:19 > 0:24:22the quill and the contracts.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28I'd like it darker and smokier.

0:24:29 > 0:24:33And move that lamp to the far side.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35And you, spread some dust on the corner.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38GRUNTING AND HEAVY BREATHING

0:24:54 > 0:24:57Ah!

0:24:57 > 0:24:59There you are.

0:24:59 > 0:25:03HE LAUGHS It's incredible, no?

0:25:03 > 0:25:05I wish you could all see your faces.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Ladies and gentlemen, this is Max Schreck,

0:25:07 > 0:25:11who will be portraying our vampire, Count Orlock.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14As you no doubt have heard, Max's methods are somewhat

0:25:14 > 0:25:16unconventional,

0:25:16 > 0:25:21but I'm sure you will come to respect his artistry

0:25:21 > 0:25:23in this matter. Now,

0:25:23 > 0:25:26Yes...places, everybody.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29Let me have the chair, please. Quickly.

0:25:29 > 0:25:33Count Orlock, you will sit here at the head of the table. Please.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35Very good.

0:25:36 > 0:25:40In this scene, the Count is reading the papers you've brought him

0:25:40 > 0:25:44and you are about to make a considerable amount of money.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47No, no make-up!

0:25:48 > 0:25:50Forgive me, Herr Doctor.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53Albin, clear the set!

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Count, you're reading your documents.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06- That's it. - It isn't right.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09Well, try acting it, for God's sake.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11What should it say?

0:26:11 > 0:26:13It's meant to be a contract.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15A real estate contract.

0:26:17 > 0:26:19I'd like some make-up.

0:26:19 > 0:26:23Well, you don't get any. Right, are we ready to begin?

0:26:23 > 0:26:25Elke, the phonograph?

0:26:32 > 0:26:35SPEAKS GERMAN

0:26:35 > 0:26:38Iris in.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41And...concentrate.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44Begin.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47Right, Orlock, very good, you're reading your papers.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50Read your papers very intensely.

0:26:50 > 0:26:55After all, how often is it that you get correspondence from the living?

0:26:55 > 0:26:57No, don't look up. Concentrate on your papers.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02Not that you actually care about the details of the contract.

0:27:02 > 0:27:07All you're interested in are all those juicy throats waiting for you

0:27:07 > 0:27:09the moment you get to Germany.

0:27:11 > 0:27:15Now, Hutter, even though it may repel you, creep in,

0:27:15 > 0:27:19creep in. Let us see the expectation on your face.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22You're about to make the biggest sale of your life.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25Point out a few details of the contract. Yes.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29Tell him that's particularly beneficial to you.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31Reach into your bag.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35This will seal the deal and something falls out.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Count, what is it? On your left on the table.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40It's a locket.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48This is Greta Schroeder.

0:27:48 > 0:27:50- You don't know her. - You're meant to ask who it is.

0:27:50 > 0:27:52Oh. Oh.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05No. End.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10- Jesus, Max. - Henrick, can you explain to him?

0:28:10 > 0:28:14- His motivation. - All right, Count,

0:28:14 > 0:28:17think about this.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19What is it

0:28:19 > 0:28:22that inspires the most longing in you?

0:28:22 > 0:28:25That is most desirable

0:28:25 > 0:28:28and yet most unattainable.

0:28:28 > 0:28:30Delight of the sun.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34That is the emotion. Use it.

0:28:36 > 0:28:40Nospheratu, you read your papers.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50Who is this woman?

0:28:50 > 0:28:52Ellen, my wife.

0:28:52 > 0:28:56She has a beautiful bosom.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59- Oh, Jesus! - Gustav, snatch it back from him.

0:28:59 > 0:29:03Yes, go on. And vampire, you signed the papers.

0:29:03 > 0:29:05Take your quill, sign the papers.

0:29:05 > 0:29:07Yes, go on.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12I understand

0:29:12 > 0:29:16we are going to be neighbours.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25Very nice addition, Count. Yes.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27And Hutter, how does that make you feel?

0:29:27 > 0:29:31Yes, snatch back your papers. You're happy to be his neighbour?

0:29:34 > 0:29:36And iris out.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41End! Excellent.

0:29:41 > 0:29:44Excellent.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46Give the lip readers a thrill.

0:29:48 > 0:29:51- Wolf, do you have it? - Yes, I got it.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54- Wolf, have you got it? - Yes, I said I got it!

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Excellent. Thank you.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10Do you think Schreck is all right? We've left him up at that castle.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13He's not in danger.

0:30:13 > 0:30:16He's a fine actor, but all this preparation,

0:30:16 > 0:30:18it's very strange.

0:30:18 > 0:30:21Strange enough for him to go so deep inside his character

0:30:21 > 0:30:25- that he forgets he is Max Schreck altogether?- I forgot.

0:30:25 > 0:30:28Schreck's peculiarity is like lovemaking games.

0:30:28 > 0:30:30You believe them when they happen

0:30:30 > 0:30:34but they always stop short of anybody being seriously hurt.

0:30:43 > 0:30:45HEAVY BREATHING

0:30:49 > 0:30:51HE GASPS

0:30:57 > 0:30:59The walls decay.

0:30:59 > 0:31:03The walls decay and fall.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08The vapours reap their burden

0:31:08 > 0:31:10to the ground.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13Dinner?

0:31:15 > 0:31:18You set a very mean table.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21No rats?

0:31:27 > 0:31:30There was a time

0:31:30 > 0:31:35when I fed from golden chalices.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38But now...

0:31:38 > 0:31:40Don't look at me that way!

0:31:42 > 0:31:45In my old age,

0:31:45 > 0:31:50I feed the way old men pee.

0:31:51 > 0:31:54Sometimes all at once,

0:31:56 > 0:32:00sometimes drop by drop.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05I told you,

0:32:05 > 0:32:08I feed erratically.

0:32:11 > 0:32:15Often. Enormously.

0:32:19 > 0:32:23Yes, Max, you may give the locket to Elke.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26Now, Gustav, this is a scene from the previous night.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28You have met your host,

0:32:28 > 0:32:32he has brought you home to his castle, he is giving you dinner.

0:32:32 > 0:32:35You can start eating. Very well. Excellent.

0:32:35 > 0:32:40And Orlock, you're merely reading your papers and totally ignoring your guest.

0:32:41 > 0:32:45Good. Wolf, roll camera.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49And...begin.

0:32:51 > 0:32:53Yes.

0:32:54 > 0:32:56A thought occurs to you.

0:32:56 > 0:32:59Look at your host. Very good, Gustav.

0:33:00 > 0:33:04Do you think he might've been the stranger

0:33:04 > 0:33:06who drove you to the castle?

0:33:07 > 0:33:10You watch. Is he even human?

0:33:10 > 0:33:15How does it feel to be eating next to him...

0:33:17 > 0:33:20knowing that you're spending the night with him

0:33:20 > 0:33:22in the castle alone?

0:33:22 > 0:33:26You watch him. Orlock, drop your paper.

0:33:26 > 0:33:28You look at Gustav.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32Gustav, keep watching him.

0:33:32 > 0:33:34Take your right hand and reach for the bread knife.

0:33:34 > 0:33:38Watch him...breathing.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42What will happen?

0:33:42 > 0:33:45Reach out, take the loaf of bread

0:33:45 > 0:33:48and cut yourself a slice.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Yes. Slicing. Slicing.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55You're slicing

0:33:55 > 0:33:59towards you. Watching him.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01Slicing. Slicing.

0:34:01 > 0:34:04Watch out. Slicing.

0:34:04 > 0:34:06Watch your... FINGER!

0:34:08 > 0:34:10Look, Nospheratu, blood!

0:34:10 > 0:34:12Blood!

0:34:14 > 0:34:17Stop it! I really did cut myself!

0:34:17 > 0:34:19- Check the generator. - You did that intentionally.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21That knife was sharp like a razor.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24Gustav, remain in character!

0:34:25 > 0:34:28Jesus Christus, get him off me!

0:34:28 > 0:34:30WOMAN YELLS

0:34:30 > 0:34:33STRAINING Schreck!

0:34:35 > 0:34:37What is the matter with you?

0:34:37 > 0:34:40He's a Stanislasky lunatic!

0:34:40 > 0:34:43I have contracted you in secrecy and at great expense.

0:34:43 > 0:34:45You will not damage this production.

0:34:45 > 0:34:49Herr Muller, when will you have your equipment functioning properly?

0:34:49 > 0:34:53I am tired of your lack of enthusiasm!

0:34:53 > 0:34:55I saw you.

0:34:55 > 0:34:58Gustav, bring the girls to the car.

0:34:58 > 0:35:00- I am not happy. - Move.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Herr Doctor, the man is barely breathing.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06I told you to fix the generator!

0:35:06 > 0:35:09No, leave the equipment and take the camera.

0:35:09 > 0:35:11- We are done here for today. - Albin!

0:35:11 > 0:35:14Everybody to the automobile!

0:35:14 > 0:35:16Herr Doctor, we're leaving. Schreck?

0:35:16 > 0:35:20No. No, he stays.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Albin?

0:37:02 > 0:37:04HE 'SIGHS

0:37:06 > 0:37:09- Yes, Friedrich?- Do you think Wolf's assistant can finish this film?

0:37:09 > 0:37:13Paul? No, he has not enough experience.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16What about you?

0:37:16 > 0:37:19You are the closest we have to a photographer.

0:37:19 > 0:37:23What are you talking about? The film ends here.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25No, Henrick, this film will go on.

0:37:25 > 0:37:29This film cannot survive even the briefest interruption.

0:37:29 > 0:37:33The financiers would take control. They hate your script.

0:37:34 > 0:37:38It may be advantageous because it makes the crew very edgy and I like that.

0:37:38 > 0:37:42Do you hear what you are saying? You're out of your fucking mind! You're a fanatic!

0:37:42 > 0:37:45Please don't behave like children, Henrick!

0:37:47 > 0:37:51I'll get a new photographer and fly him back here within the week.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54Henrick, when you wrote this scenario,

0:37:54 > 0:37:57you had demons of your own to work out, did you not?

0:37:57 > 0:37:59Now I have mine.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04Albin, you're the producer.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06Keep this company together.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21HEAVY BREATHING

0:38:26 > 0:38:30How dare you! How dare you destroy my photographer!

0:38:30 > 0:38:32You idiot!

0:38:32 > 0:38:36Did I kill some of your people, Murnau?

0:38:36 > 0:38:39I can't remember.

0:38:39 > 0:38:41We have an arrangement.

0:38:41 > 0:38:45Don't pretend you mourn, Herr Doctor. I know you.

0:38:49 > 0:38:52Why him, you monster?

0:38:52 > 0:38:55Why not the script girl?

0:38:55 > 0:38:57HE CHUCKLES

0:38:57 > 0:39:00The script girl.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02I'll eat her later.

0:39:02 > 0:39:07No, you will not. Our bargain. You agreed not to hurt my people!

0:39:09 > 0:39:14Listen to me. This requires that I go back to Berlin

0:39:14 > 0:39:18to find another photographer and then to fly him back here. And you,

0:39:18 > 0:39:21you will control yourself while I'm away.

0:39:23 > 0:39:27I don't think we need the writer any longer.

0:39:31 > 0:39:33I don't expect you to understand this

0:39:33 > 0:39:37and I am loathe to admit it myself,

0:39:37 > 0:39:40but the writer is necessary.

0:39:40 > 0:39:42All my crew is necessary.

0:39:42 > 0:39:45Do you understand?

0:39:47 > 0:39:50I don't think the ship is necessary.

0:39:53 > 0:39:55- What? - The ship.

0:39:58 > 0:40:03The ship? My god, what are you talking about?

0:40:04 > 0:40:07I have a dozen scenes on the ship.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10But I won't sail.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14Then I will replace you with a double!

0:40:14 > 0:40:17I will do every scene of yours with a double!

0:40:17 > 0:40:20You, you will have no close-ups. None whatsoever.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23How dare you speak to me that way!

0:40:23 > 0:40:26I have shots! I am the director!

0:40:26 > 0:40:28HE HISSES

0:40:28 > 0:40:32Why didn't you mention this before?

0:40:36 > 0:40:38You want to eat the writer?

0:40:38 > 0:40:41Be my guest. That will leave you to explain

0:40:41 > 0:40:44how else your character is supposed to get to Bremen!

0:40:49 > 0:40:53Yes. I will...

0:40:53 > 0:40:55shoot the scenes at sea around you,

0:40:55 > 0:41:00but you will still have to sail to Heligoland for your death scene.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04Or else what?

0:41:04 > 0:41:06Or else?

0:41:07 > 0:41:09Or else no Greta.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12We shoot her scenes there.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23I'll go to Heligoland.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25But I won't sail.

0:41:25 > 0:41:28Heligoland is an island.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32- So? - So, it can only be reached by sea.

0:41:33 > 0:41:35Or air.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48And if I agree to fly you in,

0:41:48 > 0:41:52you will leave my people alone?

0:41:52 > 0:41:54Or else what?

0:41:54 > 0:41:56Don't think I can't harm you.

0:41:56 > 0:41:59Tell me how you would harm me...

0:42:00 > 0:42:04when even I don't know how I could harm myself.

0:42:36 > 0:42:40Indignant work devils

0:42:40 > 0:42:42beat me down

0:42:42 > 0:42:45and marred and wasted me.

0:42:46 > 0:42:51And though they could not end me,

0:42:51 > 0:42:56left me maimed to dwell in presence of immortal youth.

0:42:59 > 0:43:03Immortal age beside immortal youth.

0:43:06 > 0:43:08And all I was in ashes.

0:43:51 > 0:43:57Albin, what is the most wondrous thing you have ever seen?

0:43:57 > 0:43:59Er, I saw...

0:43:59 > 0:44:01ectoplasm once.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03Ectoplasm? What is ectoplasm?

0:44:03 > 0:44:07It's the mystical substance of ghosts.

0:44:07 > 0:44:11I saw a spiritualist pull it out of his mouth in Italy.

0:44:11 > 0:44:13What did it look like?

0:44:13 > 0:44:15Seaweed.

0:44:15 > 0:44:18Is that what we look like when we die?

0:44:18 > 0:44:21I hope not.

0:44:21 > 0:44:26What was for you the most wondrous thing you ever saw?

0:44:28 > 0:44:30I once saw Greta Shroeder naked.

0:44:30 > 0:44:32- No! - Yes.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34That beats ectoplasm.

0:44:34 > 0:44:36Jesus, Max!

0:44:36 > 0:44:38You scared me to death.

0:44:38 > 0:44:40How long have you been listening?

0:44:40 > 0:44:44We've been looking all over the place for your coffin.

0:44:44 > 0:44:46Maybe it isn't his resting place.

0:44:49 > 0:44:52Didn't we have something to say to him?

0:44:54 > 0:44:58Max? The great Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau

0:44:58 > 0:45:01went to Berlin to find a new photographer.

0:45:01 > 0:45:03Wolf is probably dead.

0:45:03 > 0:45:05So, you can take your funny ears off.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08Alb, please, the man is an artist.

0:45:08 > 0:45:10Ask him some vampire questions.

0:45:10 > 0:45:13When did you become a vampire?

0:45:13 > 0:45:16I can't recall.

0:45:16 > 0:45:18Where were you born? No, WERE you born?

0:45:18 > 0:45:22I can't remember.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24It's not funny any more.

0:45:24 > 0:45:28Come on, Count Dracula wouldn't say he couldn't remember.

0:45:28 > 0:45:30I read that book.

0:45:30 > 0:45:32Murnau gave it to me.

0:45:35 > 0:45:38This is a golden opportunity. Speaking as a vampire,

0:45:38 > 0:45:41what do you make of the book's technical merits?

0:45:41 > 0:45:44It made me sad.

0:45:44 > 0:45:46Why sad?

0:45:46 > 0:45:49Because Dracula had no servants.

0:45:49 > 0:45:54I think you missed the point of the book, Count Orlock.

0:45:54 > 0:45:57Dracula hasn't had servants in 400 years

0:45:57 > 0:46:00and then a man comes to his ancestral home

0:46:00 > 0:46:04and he must convince him that he,

0:46:04 > 0:46:06that he's like the man.

0:46:06 > 0:46:08He has to feed him

0:46:08 > 0:46:12when he himself hasn't eaten food in centuries.

0:46:12 > 0:46:17Can he even remember how to buy bread?

0:46:17 > 0:46:20How to select cheese and wine?

0:46:20 > 0:46:24And then he remembers the rest of it.

0:46:24 > 0:46:28How to prepare a meal, how to make a bet.

0:46:28 > 0:46:32He remembers his past glory.

0:46:32 > 0:46:35His armies, his retainers,

0:46:35 > 0:46:38and what he is reduced to.

0:46:40 > 0:46:45The loneliest part of the book comes

0:46:45 > 0:46:49when the man accidentally...

0:46:49 > 0:46:53sees Dracula setting his table.

0:46:58 > 0:47:03But if you're so lonely, why don't you make more vampires?

0:47:05 > 0:47:07I can't. I'm too old.

0:47:10 > 0:47:13Although, I seem to remember

0:47:13 > 0:47:16I was never able to.

0:47:16 > 0:47:20- Then how did YOU become a vampire? - It was woman.

0:47:20 > 0:47:24Now we're getting somewhere.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38Schreck, the German theatre

0:47:38 > 0:47:40needs you.

0:47:42 > 0:47:44We got together in the night

0:47:44 > 0:47:46and then she left me.

0:47:46 > 0:47:50At first, I had a painting of her in wood,

0:47:50 > 0:47:52then I had a relief of her in marble

0:47:52 > 0:47:56and then I had a picture of her

0:47:56 > 0:47:59in my mind.

0:47:59 > 0:48:01But now, I no longer even have that.

0:48:06 > 0:48:08That's what they think.

0:48:14 > 0:48:17The schnapps they make in these parts...

0:48:20 > 0:48:24I haven't tasted it in...

0:48:26 > 0:48:28Take it easy there, old boy.

0:48:41 > 0:48:45Henrick, what an actor.

0:48:48 > 0:48:50Dedication.

0:48:57 > 0:48:59You, Schreck.

0:49:06 > 0:49:09GROANING

0:49:43 > 0:49:45Herr Doctor!

0:49:47 > 0:49:49Herr Doctor!

0:49:49 > 0:49:51You wanted reality. Here it is.

0:49:51 > 0:49:55I'm not a doctor, but I have dabbled in pharmaceuticals.

0:49:55 > 0:49:58You're the new cameraman? We're trying to shoot it now.

0:49:58 > 0:50:00- Ah, good.- Art can never move as fast as life, huh?

0:50:00 > 0:50:02Ah, sure it can.

0:50:02 > 0:50:05So, what's the lens?

0:50:05 > 0:50:07It's 35mm, sir.

0:50:07 > 0:50:10Not my ideal weapon of choice, but it'll do. Are you loaded?

0:50:10 > 0:50:12- Yes, sir. - Good, so am I.

0:50:12 > 0:50:17Move the camera 10cm to the right and I'll contrive a two-shot, but wait for my signal.

0:50:22 > 0:50:25SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE

0:50:25 > 0:50:27- Did you get that shot? - Yes, sir.

0:50:27 > 0:50:29- And the gate is clean? - The gate's clean, sir.

0:50:32 > 0:50:36I hadn't time to properly prepare the shot. What I should've done

0:50:36 > 0:50:38was film the thing in slow motion.

0:50:38 > 0:50:40It would've been incredibly moving.

0:50:40 > 0:50:42What's slow motion?

0:50:42 > 0:50:47I run the film through the camera too fast, then when it's projected at normal speed,

0:50:47 > 0:50:49things appear to be unnaturally slow.

0:50:49 > 0:50:52Gives everything a kind of resonance.

0:50:52 > 0:50:59It's a shame you won't have a chance to demonstrate your more esoteric skills on my production.

0:51:00 > 0:51:03I'm Albin Grau, the producer.

0:51:03 > 0:51:08And at dawn, Hutter tried to fathom the horrors of his nights.

0:51:08 > 0:51:12Excellent. Fritz, roll camera.

0:51:18 > 0:51:20Iris in.

0:51:23 > 0:51:25Begin.

0:51:49 > 0:51:51And end.

0:51:51 > 0:51:53Excellent, Gustav.

0:51:53 > 0:51:56Extraordinary discipline in the face of ridicule. Fritz?

0:51:58 > 0:52:00Yes, well, that's his performance style.

0:52:00 > 0:52:04I'd like to move in for another angle on the crypt, please.

0:52:04 > 0:52:07Mark the shutter with some chalk.

0:52:07 > 0:52:10Well, I am exhausted now and I'm hungry as well.

0:52:10 > 0:52:14You will get a nice hot meal after we're done with the ship.

0:52:43 > 0:52:46And end.

0:53:45 > 0:53:48Have you ever considered acting?

0:53:48 > 0:53:53- Really. You have a very interesting face.- Are you a producer?

0:53:53 > 0:53:56Why can't Herr Doctor film in a studio like everybody else?

0:53:56 > 0:54:01Henrick, would you take my dog for me? Choo-Choo.

0:54:01 > 0:54:04Oh, and thank you. Fou-Fou. Lovely.

0:54:04 > 0:54:10Wismar. Is there anything here that even vaguely resembles a cabaret?

0:54:10 > 0:54:13I'm suffering for my art, Albin, believe me.

0:54:13 > 0:54:16Melodrama. I mean, what's going on here anyway?

0:54:16 > 0:54:19Friedrich tells me to lock my door at night

0:54:19 > 0:54:22and Gustav says everybody's vanishing.

0:54:22 > 0:54:26Oh, and you can imagine what they're saying in Berlin.

0:54:26 > 0:54:27Hello, Greta.

0:54:27 > 0:54:29Hello.

0:54:31 > 0:54:34You look...vaguely familiar. Where did we meet?

0:54:34 > 0:54:37Morocco.

0:54:37 > 0:54:41Ah, yes, of course, you brought me treats.

0:54:42 > 0:54:45- What was your name again? - It's...

0:54:47 > 0:54:49Er... Fritzy!

0:54:49 > 0:54:52- Ia, ia, Fritzy. - Fritzy.

0:54:52 > 0:54:56Fritzy. Would you care to join us for a drink?

0:54:56 > 0:55:00No, no, no, we have to pre-light the set.

0:55:00 > 0:55:02What? What set?

0:55:02 > 0:55:04What the hell are you talking about?

0:55:04 > 0:55:07We need you to see the sets with us tonight.

0:55:07 > 0:55:10Well, give me back my dogs then.

0:55:12 > 0:55:14- Thank you. - You're welcome.

0:55:14 > 0:55:17Left all alone, as usual.

0:55:17 > 0:55:19Come here, Fou-Fou.

0:55:35 > 0:55:37She's here, isn't she?

0:55:37 > 0:55:40The glorious child.

0:55:44 > 0:55:46- No. - I want to see her now.

0:55:46 > 0:55:49- No! - I won't act for you again

0:55:49 > 0:55:51until you bring her to me.

0:55:51 > 0:55:54You are destroying everything.

0:55:54 > 0:55:58My people have to trust me for you to get what you want.

0:55:58 > 0:56:02You and I are not so different.

0:56:04 > 0:56:06Greta is in your last scene.

0:56:06 > 0:56:09That is when you can have her.

0:56:09 > 0:56:11- After my death scene? - Yes.

0:56:11 > 0:56:14Don't expect realism there, Murnau.

0:56:14 > 0:56:18- What do you mean? - Don't cheat me.

0:56:18 > 0:56:21You will stay away from her.

0:56:21 > 0:56:24You will stay away from my crew!

0:56:24 > 0:56:26I will finish my picture!

0:56:27 > 0:56:30This is hardly your picture any longer.

0:57:03 > 0:57:05LAUGHTER

0:57:07 > 0:57:10- You're ready? - Yes, Henrick.

0:57:26 > 0:57:28Oh, mind your head.

0:57:32 > 0:57:35This is it.

0:57:35 > 0:57:37- He's in here? - Yeah.

0:57:37 > 0:57:39Are you sure?

0:57:47 > 0:57:49Well, that answers that question.

0:57:49 > 0:57:52How did you find this place?

0:57:52 > 0:57:55I followed Murnau here.

0:57:55 > 0:57:58I think you are in the wrong part of the building.

0:57:58 > 0:58:01There's probably a sadistic brothel upstairs.

0:58:19 > 0:58:21WOMAN SCREAMS

0:58:27 > 0:58:29Aaaaarrrgh!

0:58:33 > 0:58:36- What's wrong? - It's all right.

0:58:36 > 0:58:38Everyone back to bed.

0:58:39 > 0:58:42Greta! Greta, what is it?

0:58:42 > 0:58:44Greta, what is it?

0:58:44 > 0:58:47Greta. Greta.

0:58:47 > 0:58:50What's happened, Greta?

0:58:50 > 0:58:53- It's morphine. - Morphine?

0:58:56 > 0:58:59Photography and pharmaceuticals.

0:58:59 > 0:59:01Fritzy, that's just what I need.

0:59:01 > 0:59:04- Friedrich knows all about it. - What do you mean?

0:59:04 > 0:59:08He knows all about it. She's fine. Get some sleep.

0:59:12 > 0:59:15GRETA LAUGHS

1:00:06 > 1:00:08Are you all right there?

1:00:40 > 1:00:42This set is not ready.

1:00:44 > 1:00:46Can we get any natural light in here?

1:00:46 > 1:00:51The set is not ready and you're talking about natural light. Please.

1:00:52 > 1:00:54What's the matter with you?

1:00:54 > 1:00:57You seem a little anxious lately.

1:00:57 > 1:01:01You don't understand. I'm ruined. I'll never make another picture again.

1:01:01 > 1:01:05My reputation - gone, and you talk about natural light. Please.

1:01:05 > 1:01:09Don't worry. It's the same on every picture.

1:01:09 > 1:01:11Not on MY picture!

1:01:48 > 1:01:51Friedrich! Open up!

1:01:51 > 1:01:53MUFFLED GROANS

1:01:55 > 1:01:57It's me, Albin.

1:01:59 > 1:02:01Friedrich, let us in.

1:02:07 > 1:02:09Jesus.

1:02:17 > 1:02:20- What is it? - It's laudanum.

1:02:20 > 1:02:23There is no Max Schreck.

1:02:28 > 1:02:31If he's not Max Schreck,

1:02:31 > 1:02:33who is he?

1:02:34 > 1:02:36I don't know.

1:02:36 > 1:02:39Well, where did you find him?

1:02:39 > 1:02:43In a book when I was a student.

1:02:44 > 1:02:50A series of paintings portraying a long line of despotic kings

1:02:50 > 1:02:52who were meant to be vampires

1:02:52 > 1:02:56living in Slovakia for hundreds of years.

1:02:57 > 1:03:02I had forgotten all about it until she gave me the other book.

1:03:02 > 1:03:05- What other book, Friedrich? - Dracula.

1:03:05 > 1:03:08Then I went to scout the locations...

1:03:10 > 1:03:14and there he was, living in an old monastery.

1:03:15 > 1:03:18What kind of bargain did you make with him?

1:03:18 > 1:03:22That he would play the part of an actor

1:03:22 > 1:03:24playing the part of a vampire.

1:03:25 > 1:03:27Why?

1:03:27 > 1:03:30What did you offer him in return?

1:03:32 > 1:03:34Everlasting life.

1:03:36 > 1:03:38And Greta.

1:03:39 > 1:03:43Greta? How could you do this, Friedrich?

1:03:43 > 1:03:47I did it for science.

1:03:48 > 1:03:50To preserve it for posterity.

1:03:52 > 1:03:55Friedrich! Friedrich!

1:03:58 > 1:04:01He's gone. Come on.

1:04:04 > 1:04:06What are we going to do?

1:04:06 > 1:04:08The call is for two o'clock.

1:04:29 > 1:04:32Albin, listen to me.

1:04:34 > 1:04:36There's no way off this island.

1:04:36 > 1:04:40- What about the aeroplane? - No, no, I already checked.

1:04:41 > 1:04:43The fuel tanks are empty.

1:04:43 > 1:04:45God.

1:04:45 > 1:04:47No...

1:04:48 > 1:04:51we're going to have to film Schreck's scene tonight.

1:04:55 > 1:04:57WAVES CRASH

1:04:59 > 1:05:02You know I don't like these late shoots, Friedrich.

1:05:02 > 1:05:06Where is everybody? Why don't I have an assistant?

1:05:06 > 1:05:08Greta...

1:05:09 > 1:05:11did you put on this make-up with a broom?

1:05:11 > 1:05:14- Stop fussing, Albin. - You look beautiful.

1:05:14 > 1:05:16- Can I have a cigarette? - Sure.

1:05:18 > 1:05:20Where's my script? Henrick?

1:05:20 > 1:05:23- He's indisposed. - What's the matter with him?

1:05:23 > 1:05:25Don't ask so many questions. We're busy.

1:05:29 > 1:05:31Thank you, darling.

1:05:33 > 1:05:36Why does everybody look so depressing?

1:05:38 > 1:05:40Hey, who died?!

1:06:17 > 1:06:20Jesus, look at you.

1:06:25 > 1:06:27Friedrich?

1:06:28 > 1:06:32- Herr Doctor! - Yes, Greta, what is it?

1:06:32 > 1:06:36Yes, what is it? What's the shot? What are we doing here?

1:06:39 > 1:06:42Can you stand for me?

1:06:43 > 1:06:46Look at you. Yes.

1:06:46 > 1:06:48Very well.

1:06:48 > 1:06:51Now, let us take her robe, Albin. Please.

1:06:54 > 1:06:57And she'll need her wooden stake.

1:06:59 > 1:07:02Also Greta, you will be here, lying on the bed.

1:07:04 > 1:07:06Yes.

1:07:06 > 1:07:08Here.

1:07:17 > 1:07:19Now, in this scene,

1:07:19 > 1:07:24you make the ultimate sacrifice for love. Yes?

1:07:24 > 1:07:26Yes.

1:07:26 > 1:07:29You will seduce the Count

1:07:29 > 1:07:32and with your wooden stake,

1:07:32 > 1:07:34just before you die,

1:07:34 > 1:07:36you will dispatch him. Yes?

1:07:36 > 1:07:39Very good.

1:07:40 > 1:07:42Er, in other words, all you have to do

1:07:42 > 1:07:45is, as they say, relax

1:07:45 > 1:07:48and the vampire will do all the work.

1:07:48 > 1:07:52You had me leave rehearsals in Berlin just to do that?

1:07:53 > 1:07:55Hey! Watch it, handsome.

1:08:01 > 1:08:04And for your lean-in, please, Herr Schreck.

1:08:04 > 1:08:07Thank you.

1:08:10 > 1:08:12And Albin, her shoes, please.

1:08:14 > 1:08:16We must go aboard.

1:08:16 > 1:08:19- Friedrich? - Yes?

1:08:19 > 1:08:21I don't wish to question your authority,

1:08:21 > 1:08:24but are you sure you know what you are doing?

1:08:24 > 1:08:26Yes, exactly. Roll camera.

1:08:26 > 1:08:28And Fritz, ready?

1:08:28 > 1:08:30Higher.

1:08:33 > 1:08:36And...iris in. SHE SCREAMS

1:08:38 > 1:08:41- What happened? - I saw... He...

1:08:41 > 1:08:44Calm down.

1:08:44 > 1:08:46He casts no reflection.

1:08:46 > 1:08:49- Calm down, Greta. - No, look at him!

1:08:49 > 1:08:52Look at him! Look!

1:08:52 > 1:08:55Please help me! Help me, please, Friedrich!

1:08:55 > 1:08:58- I'll give you something to calm you. - No, don't do that.

1:08:58 > 1:09:01Albin, look at him, please!

1:09:01 > 1:09:04Please! Please!

1:09:04 > 1:09:05No!

1:09:05 > 1:09:09No! I don't understand

1:09:09 > 1:09:11what... No!

1:09:21 > 1:09:24It is the role that will make you great as an actress.

1:09:30 > 1:09:34Consider it a sacrifice for your art.

1:09:40 > 1:09:43That's better. Now we can work in peace.

1:09:46 > 1:09:48HE PANTS

1:09:57 > 1:09:59I want her now.

1:09:59 > 1:10:03No, I need a shot of you clutching your heart first.

1:10:03 > 1:10:05- My death scene? - Yes.

1:10:05 > 1:10:07You must do that for me.

1:10:09 > 1:10:11Very well.

1:10:12 > 1:10:15Roll camera and begin.

1:10:17 > 1:10:21Yes, Count. You kneel down. We'll have your head on her shoulder,

1:10:21 > 1:10:24but you're not feeding, Count.

1:10:26 > 1:10:29No, you're not drinking her blood now

1:10:29 > 1:10:33because you have been drinking her blood all night.

1:10:33 > 1:10:36In fact, you can barely move.

1:10:38 > 1:10:41You are intoxicated

1:10:41 > 1:10:44with blood and desire.

1:10:44 > 1:10:46Greta, can you hear me?

1:10:46 > 1:10:48SHE GRUNTS Yes?

1:10:48 > 1:10:51Flutter your eyelids.

1:10:51 > 1:10:53Yes. Now, Greta...

1:10:53 > 1:10:56you start to awaken.

1:10:56 > 1:10:59Find your stick.

1:10:59 > 1:11:02Yes, where is it? Find your stake.

1:11:03 > 1:11:06Count, as she raises her stake, what do you see?

1:11:06 > 1:11:09Yes. Yes.

1:11:09 > 1:11:12A wooden stake. Exactly. You look at her.

1:11:12 > 1:11:15Betrayed. Yes, you turn.

1:11:15 > 1:11:18You rise. You look around.

1:11:18 > 1:11:22The sun is coming. You grab your heart

1:11:22 > 1:11:24in anguish.

1:11:24 > 1:11:27Yes, and you start to die.

1:11:27 > 1:11:31Yes, you start to die. Alone in anguish. Die!

1:11:31 > 1:11:33You fucking rat bastard

1:11:33 > 1:11:36vampire pig! Shit!

1:11:36 > 1:11:41Yes, die alone! The weight of the centuries bends you!

1:11:41 > 1:11:44And...end!

1:11:47 > 1:11:50- Fritz? - Ia, got it.

1:11:50 > 1:11:52That's enough, Murnau.

1:11:56 > 1:11:59- Hey! - OK, ia.

1:11:59 > 1:12:02- I want her now! - Herr Schreck...

1:12:03 > 1:12:06- Bitte. - Go to hell, Murnau!

1:12:06 > 1:12:08Begin!

1:12:13 > 1:12:17GRETA GROANS

1:12:35 > 1:12:37Very good. Yes.

1:12:37 > 1:12:40Now slowly move the camera.

1:13:01 > 1:13:03HE SNORES

1:13:10 > 1:13:15(Friedrich, he's sleeping. How can I get the best camera angle?)

1:13:37 > 1:13:39He cut the chain! We're trapped!

1:13:47 > 1:13:51So, you would break our bargain?

1:13:53 > 1:13:56You think you know so much,

1:13:56 > 1:13:59but I can still kill you.

1:14:00 > 1:14:03I can break your neck.

1:14:05 > 1:14:07Drink your blood, and I can...

1:14:09 > 1:14:11You tried to trick me.

1:14:15 > 1:14:18It's daybreak, is it?

1:14:18 > 1:14:21So what? All I need

1:14:21 > 1:14:25is to sleep in darkness.

1:14:25 > 1:14:28I will stay here until dusk.

1:14:28 > 1:14:32And then, only I...

1:14:32 > 1:14:35will walk out alive.

1:14:41 > 1:14:43Idiot!

1:15:07 > 1:15:11Frankly, Count, I find this composition unworkable.

1:15:11 > 1:15:15Could you return to your original mark, please?

1:15:30 > 1:15:35If it's not in frame, it doesn't exist.

1:15:59 > 1:16:01SHE WHIMPERS

1:16:23 > 1:16:25DISTANT VOICES

1:16:27 > 1:16:30BANGING

1:17:07 > 1:17:11Then, finally, you must turn to meet the sun.

1:17:13 > 1:17:17The death of centuries, moon chaser, blasphemor,
