Shadow of the Vampire
A magnificent film that very few people actually have heard of, much less seen. It always amazes me how distubringly original this movie is. Taking a real life situation and story about infamous director FW Murnau trying to make Nosferatu being denied Dracula, then exaggerating it with a REAL vampire. I always find myself loving this movie each time I watch it.
The acting is spectacular in this movie and the writing is even more brilliant. Special props and priase to mad man Willem Dafoe, who personally if you ask me, gives his greatest performance ever in this movie. Even better then his portrayal of Green Goblin in Spider-Man.
