the other night i found the time to finally sit down and watch f.w. murnau's nosferatu. i'd never seen this before, and i think i like it more than dracula. it was interesting to see this after having seen shadow of the vampire, as certain scenes were familiar and i'd kept thinking of things from that film while watching it. the problem is that shadow of the vampire is a fictional account of the filming of nosferatu, so i was never sure if what i remembered seeing in shadow of the vampire really happened or was just their fictionalized account of it.
