“Nosferatu”, interview with actor Willem Dafoe
Manage episode 456017422 series 1225738
“Nosferatu” by Robert Eggers, coming out in Italian cinemas on January 1st, marks the third collaboration between the director and actor Willem Dafoe.
Dafoe was indeed among the protagonists of “The Lighthouse” and “The Northman“, the second and third film directed by the American director who made his directorial debut in 2015 with “The Witch“.
“Nosferatu” draws inspiration from both the 1922 masterpiece by F.W. Murnau and Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Dafoe plays the role of professor Albin Eberhart Von Franz, a doctor specialized in the occult, demons, vampires, creatures from above.
He’s the only one who’s able to cure and understand Ellen (Lily Rose-Depp), a young wife to real estate agent Thomas Hutter (Nicholas Hoult), a woman that, since childhood, has become the object of a powerful vampire’s lustful attention and obsession.
As producer Chris Columbus said that Eggers’ office looked like the one of a vampirology professor, Albin Eberhart Von Franz might have been the role the director would have chosen to play himself. Basically Von Franz is Eggers and Eggers is Willem Dafoe.
Willem Dafoe admits that there’s some truth in this affirmation and adds: “ You can say Eggers is me in the respect that I’m his creature, he sends me out and take his landscape and I like that relationship with a director”
