“It’s a vampire movie!” : This film legend did not like Twilight at all and prefers this film

To say that Lauren Bacall was a tremendous actress. An absolute legend of the Golden Age of Hollywood, known for one of the most hypnotic and sublime looks in cinema (nicknamed “The Look”), he created one of the most famous couples in American cinema with Humphrey Bogart, whom he met on the set. In the port of Anguish, in 1944.

and with whom he shared his life until his death in 1957. In 2010, he was awarded with an honorary Oscar, he gradually moved away from the shooting field. Until his death in 2014 at the age of 85.

In 2009, the actor released a delicious slice of life on his Twitter page. A minor afterlife experience watching the movie Twilight with his young daughter.

“Watch Nosferatu instead!”

“Yes, I saw Twilight, my grandson made me watch the movie, he said it was the best vampire movie of all time. When the movie was over, I wanted to kick his shoe.

But hey, I don’t want a comprehensive book to be written about me. Instead, I handed him a DVD of Murnau’s 1922 masterpiece Nosferatu and said, “It’s a vampire movie!” And this applies to all of you! Watch Nosferatu instead!”

Lauren Bacall’s advice is quite tasty, considering that a new version of Nosferatu, directed by Robert Eggers, is coming to the screens at the end of the year. Nevertheless, his recommendation is more valid than ever. 102 years (!) after its release, Murnau’s film remains a pure masterpiece. One of the greatest films in the history of cinema, almost lost forever due to a dark case of plagiarism. Finally a miraculous vampire.
