Dracula searches
19th Century London for his soulmate....
"Eerie, romantic and operatic, this exquisitely mounted revamp
of the undead legend is a supreme artistic achievement. Francis Ford
Coppola's film is grandiose in visual approach and uses every cinematic
trick — from the basic atmospheric lighting of the silent era
to today's more sophisticated techniques — to accentuate
the poetic sensuality of Stoker's chiller rather than the more
exploitative blood-sucking elements. Keanu Reeves's acting may
not be to everyone's taste, but, as the tired count who has overdosed
on immortality, Gary Oldman's towering performance holds centre
stage and burns itself into the memory." - Radio Times Review
