We have been streaming silver screams since midnight last night the stroke of midnight for Eastern time, and we've been going we have been going I tapped out after three or four movies. I made it till 7 a.m. I said something about Dawn. I remember saying something about Don and then I didn't make it. So don't I said that in the comments when I woke up I checked out and it was like 7 10 and then I didn't make it the other eight minute. That's insane.

Caligari. Yeah. This is our first time talking silent film on the podcast. I think we've wanted to do it for a while, but we just didn't really have an excuse because it's just like, how are we gonna get our our 90s loving mm loving audience, you know all the way back to 1920. We're like, holy shit. 2020 so that's why we birthed this January theme all month long at the podcast and on our website and ofs podcast.com. We are celebrating silver screams. So it's a new decade. We're honoring the film of yesteryear. We're going to be talking silent horror and black-and-white horror modern and classic. So it's going to be great. Yeah.

Of yesteryear not just silent film but occasionally silent film and you know your fan your favorite Vincent Price movies anything black and white just like pitch dark contrast.

And if you've considered yourself the kind of person that has a hard time with black and white horror movies. We are here for you. We get it it's harder to watch their Lately different viewing experiences, but I think we've got a lot of great recommendations that even you will like if you're not necessarily into that genre also, it's just really cool to watch movies from the 20s in the motherfucking 20s. There's something really I don't know. It feels like we're in a really special place in time that we can kind of exist a century after the birth of Cinema and the birth of horror. Yeah. These movies are almost at the movies we're talking about today are almost a hundred years old. Yeah. Wonderful. Yeah, it's crazy that they still exist. It's awesome that we get to watch them and they're in the public domain. So technically you own them. They belong to all of us because it's culture. Yeah, actually if you missed out on our silver screams Marathon all of the movies that we played this New Year's Day have been in the public domain so they are on our Facebook page and you can watch them at facebook.com slash Nightmare On Film Street, including Nosferatu and Cabinet of dr.

They're like, we're here in 2024. Oh that does sound. Yeah. It doesn't say that year like a one of those clocks that that's got square numbers wake up Carl. It is 8:43 a.m. You have missed your bus. Carl you're late for work. It's the year 2036, but I want to give a quick shout out to our most recent Patron. So, you know in true silent film fashion. Let's throw up that title card.

No one's gonna stop us that's good ankles at it's great. It's the sequel to knives out. It's the prequel denies that really ankles out ankles out. But without further Ado, let's get into the silence scares of this week's episode that we are calling coffins and cabinets and let's kick it off with 1922 s not Sera to nice variety or Nosferatu. I don't know depends who you ask if you ask Joe Hill has a zero son of a bitch. From 1922 FW murnau? I don't know it's pronounced but sure his famous film Nosferatu is currently sitting at a seven point nine out of 10 on IMDb 4 out of 4 from Roger Ebert 97 percent on Rotten Tomatoes and 3.9 and a 5 on letterboxed guys. I don't know. We brought this up in the intro because that's in the future. But it's the 20s Roaring 20s are back in the 20s talking about the 20s. Jin is cheaper than it's ever been vampires are plentiful with funny ears funny copyright infringing years confetti was just invented and no one's sick of it. Yeah. Yes 20s, that's so cool. You start dressing like a flapper. I have already started. Okay, just lots of beads frilly stuff knees out while you're dancing sneezed out. So I know there's lots of friends. Yeah and a feather a single feather all but like hella long feather. Yeah, like an antenna I so we're talking about NOS ferrata to Chances Are you've heard of this movie? You've seen his great works SpongeBob SpongeBob SquarePants. That's right, flick a light switches and shit. But have you actually seen it if you haven't it's on YouTube for free. It's not Public domain check it out. In fact, this movie isn't supposed to exist. That's my favorite part about it. That is my favorite part about it. This movie is a I can't even say loose adaptation other than the name and Cara, I believe I believe the the phrasing on the poster and in the movie is is freely adapting Bram Stoker's Dracula. Yeah. It's a very free wielding. Oh, yeah Temptation. The plot is similar enough to Dracula. It's got all those main beats. We don't have sir. And Helsing but count or lock is both very much like Dracula and not like Dracula at all, which is really cool. But yeah, the estate of Bram Stoker was like nope, and the court was like they're right and they ordered all of the copies to be ripped like deleting. Yeah. Don't eat it first at the funeral pyre py re yeah from what I understand in an article that was published. On Blum has a few years ago. Somebody sent her the the Widow of Bram Stoker a poster and I don't know if it was like a brag or a dig or what but they somebody involved probably the director sent her a poster and that was what started everything went. Well and I don't I don't know why it still exists. I from not exactly sure who in particular kept copies of this film. I like to imagine it. Like theater owners who had copies of it in their own possession and they're like, yeah. I'm not deleting this deleting why I think the craziest thing about this story though, is that okay? So we're flashing back a hundred years. Ninety eight years to 1922 when Nosferatu is out. It is based off of a novel from like 1879. So it's only a novel that's like 40 years old that is blowing my brain. Yeah. It was my brain. And that that's like when this That 70s Show came out in the 90s for the show for what I know I brought this up before but I'm just like I don't how we should have like that. So 90s show or whatever when we when we did House of Wax and they were doing a period thing and they were doing it in like the 50s. I was just like this is bowing my mine. It's also probably because the 90s it's also probably because when you think of Nine, that's a 200-year old property. Yeah, I gots hello. So you think because Frankenstein Dracula? They're all their buds right you at least I do my gonna speak for you think of Dracula as being as old as story Bram Stoker's Dracula is hella old bro. He in my head not quantifying it with this new Millennia. It's just a decade. I don't know. I'm making it such a big deal. I'm done. 30 of these know I've done three. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just an idiot, but I just think that it's really interesting when you get to like have something to Stanford and time like okay a hundred years ago. Dracula was only 40 years old like Dracula wasn't even a cougar yet. Yeah, like people were still very familiar with Dracula. The books had not gotten tested. There was maybe only a second edition print is basically the it like with the equivalency of like a Stephen King adaptation for them. That's so true. Yeah. Oh that the seller is finally getting adapted. Oh, I can't believe they finally made the man stoker Thriller and by all accounts a technical achievement of its time especially in regards to the stop-motion animation of his tombstones his his coffins his Covenant and stores and stuff. Yeah, I mean doors are easy to accomplish the coffins. That's an impressive shit. They did a good job and fucking or lock when he comes up in the boat when you like whoop anything he stands up amazing. My favorite is when he is loading Kaufman's himself onto a carrot. Yes, and then he gets into one and the coffin levitates up on top don't live and I didn't the carriage just directs itself to the port where I assumed he'd even need a ship crew. I have no idea. Why don't ya why yeah, he needed somebody to eat the actual visual effects in Nosferatu surprise me. Every single time. I see them. Yeah, and I don't know if that's because I don't watch enough like really classic horror films. Like I think the farthest I generally go back in my watching and probably Dracula 1931. So I'm not watching a lot of silent film and the great thing about silent film is it's got this cool marriage between ween theater and the cinema we know and love now. Yeah that doesn't quite exist today because there's especially with like the German expressionism films because of all the skewed angles and like Picasso Enos of them, but there is a lot of staging that you see typical to stage plays and they're playing to the back of the house till yeah, and it just makes everything look so hyper stylized like in especially when you're looking at the women of the Like with the long thin eyebrows and the little black Cupid bow lips and they're so caricature E. I just fucking love it. Yeah it reminds you how good your brain is it just deducing facial expressions because one of the things I love about silent film is that it like there are there is always music you are never just plunged into absolute silence there is accompaniment, but for the most part the dialogue cards that you're seeing are not the Higher conversation. It's just like the key parts that you would need. It's almost like a tldr of what just happened. But the facial expressions you can actually watch the majority of a conversation and get everything without getting any of the details and that's because there's so expressive in these movies because yeah, it's like a play in there, you know, whether or not you can hear them. They still you still need to be able to pick up on the information from what you can see. Yeah, and your brain is so good at that your brain totally understands what's happening. When people are being given bad news or they're elated about something you are with them on that journey and more than just going to a movie theater now silent film regardless of where you watch it takes you in immediately because you have to pay attention to it. And that's I guess what I'm saying. I really appreciated watching silent film. It's been a long time and I love how much your brain and your eyes are a detective for things. Yeah, and it's so similar and very different from when we watch foreign films because with foreign films we watch them with captions. So you are stealing time from one or the other like you're understanding what everybody's saying, you're not getting all of the visual cues from the actors. Whereas with silent film you get to do both. Yeah, and there's something to be said about the fact that the dialogue cards come after the scene. So you get to see everything play out and it's like you you brought into the written portion of the text with all the emotion. From the scene acted out. So like you know, the wife is distraught that cutter is it hunter or Huger? I'm not sure Huger sounds more like a German name, but you can tell that she's very distraught by her body language and how she's acting and him running around and packing his suitcase, you know where they're coming from in each of the seeds as almost like a silent films version of emojis. Like it's giving us, you know, how we we send texts and stuff now we we filter them. M with a lot of that emotion like because you're like, oh is this going to be taken the wrong way even with emails like I and emails with Smiley's how unprofessional that is because you're trying to force like a connotation to the words you've written. Yeah. Nobody's laughing out loud. It's just to show that there's some sarcasm or cheekiness to what you're saying. Yeah and silent film basically executed being able to condense emotion and context of a film down to a couple sentences, which I did a crazy a really good point, but you're so fucking right like cuz you know, how Everybody's feeling before you get context for why they're feeling that way. It's such a cool way to watch movies. And I mean just going back to what you were talking about in terms of special effects or lock count or lock looks amazing my God amazing so good. And the thing too is that like all these movies these really classic horror films have been restored. So they're all in like pristine condition. Apparently, we watched a 4K restoration, but fucking like I saw we're logs eyebrow up close and it's just Just his fingers and shit two right hands and my hands are so good Max Schreck the actor playing count or lock. It comes from German theater. So there's a pretty good chance. He did his own makeup. That's just how it was. You did your own makeup in theater. That's so cool. And that's the scene that comes to from an understanding of like Silhouettes and how things are going to play because even the sets in oarlocks Castle Mansion, whatever are designed for what his character looks like when he stands in a doorway and it is only an inch taller than his head and its got like a Pointy Peak he looks amazing and every location he stands in the contrast of his white pointed Claws and his black squared off cloak and he's standing in like a column and you're just like, oh are you talking specifically about that? One moment. How did it shows up? Yeah, they're all started. There is a uh moment later on. It's maybe the first night maybe a second night in where hutter is in his room and either the door opens by itself or I think the door opens at the by itself or huh door opens it just to see what what's going on outside and you can see count or lock like down the hallway just his fucking and are oh my God, I forgot about that that was on and we've seen this movie before that was one of the most unsettling things. I've seen all year it gave me my theory for how I think count oral or like my fan theory on count orlok. That's what that when he's wearing his hat turbine thing. Oh, yeah, he's a man. Yes. And when when you see him bald he is Vampire or Lockheed is the count. Yeah, because whenever you see him at his most devious he's bald head and the pointed ears and you see like the bat like form, whereas when he's wearing the like the hat to disguise. He's doing business stuff. Like yeah, we're more human type things and when we see him brooding in the corner, he looks like he's not human. Yeah. Oh man. So like we're like never really looks human. But like he really looks like he has no human qualities behind his eyes. He's carrying around coffins full of dirt. That's some heavy shit. He's lifting that luggage. No problem. I love how fast or look just like fucks off in this. Yeah. He really does soon as he catches wind of hunters pretty girlfriend and the property Deeds are all signed and good. There's no Brides that hold her back. There's none of that like there's the mosquitoes you your that's how we got those two identical marks. This is the teal your mosquito better. Tell my wife and three months right, but then he just leaves. He packs up his coffins and he's out of there. And so Hunter begins his really long journey of chasing after him, which this movie does dedicate a lot of time to boat travel. Like there are I think I do I think life just had to dedicate a lot of time to boat travels like to ax where they're on the the boats. Yeah. Did he try we didn't see him travel by boat, right? I just assumed it was also my boat. Yeah. Okay, my my one of my absolute favorites It's because hutter I'm cuter. I'm not sure his expression his emoting in this movie is so good. He is so carefree and just like really excited about thing. You know, what I pictured Kenneth Branagh as gilderoy Lockhart Harry Potter. That scene where he's he's exclaiming that he's going off to Transylvania and and and Alan is very upset about it. And she just had not have a good feeling but he's practically yeah, it breaks my heart because she's just like move the window and he's like throwing suitcases in the background were like Kermit with his hands in the air just flailing and stuff. But my absolute favorite is when we we are at the cabin before he's making his Trek up to or locks. Castle and he's gotta wait out the night is these the idea because there's werewolves about it like a hyena, but I do love in this movie how we have there's multiple ways that our information is given to us. Like we see the books people are reading. We are actually looking at the letters people are riding. And in this one, we have a book about Nosferatu about the vampires and how they come out and they essentially we're giving the rules of the vampire and when we cut back Take cuter. He goes ha ha the funniest thing that he's ever seen in his life. It's it's so great because like we're reading the horrors and we're being scared but like this guy is really not buying it and to his detriment the effects win or lock for shows up her pretty great though. The the Phantom Carriage. Oh, yeah when he picks him up and it's basically just like a carriage on Fast Forward running through the woods. Yeah, and there's one part where it kind of goes off the road a little bit like they catch themselves, and it's great that you Definitely back then one take the first take was the best take like unless something absolutely went wrong. They do do a ton of little tricks though with the camera because there are there's quite a few moments where or lock will back out of a room and then not seamlessly obviously by today's standards, but for back then would have been pretty fucking amazing. We're just the doors black at the end like and he's not there at all. Yeah, and I mean by the restoration standard you can kind of see the cut. It like there are some moments where there's some like we filmed an empty room and then we filmed something on top of it and we do a little cut here and it looks crazy cool. Yeah, it's nuts. I can't get over how much or lock just carries his own coffins around especially when he shows up to town because the boats everybody in the boats been killed. There's some fear of a plague so nobody wants to go near the boat because he brings rats. With him. Yeah. Well, yeah, they break open one of those coffins it's full of rats, but he just kind of carries those coffins from the boat to his abandoned house to his new house has its own fucking moat. No one notices. Yeah. No one sees its great. I re-read an article that one of our contributors Heather powderly wrote in 2018 actually about Nasser ah to and it's a great read. You should check it out at NOS podcast.com just search for Nosferatu and then I remember editing it. I See the movie in a while. I re-watched it afterward but like bolded italicized underlined like carries his fucking coffins. No one notices it I died laughing reading it. Oh man. The cool thing about or lock is that he's got kind of a different motive when he gets to the Americas and the do you think I assume no idea or England? I don't know sir. I just assumed we went from Germany to Transylvania, which I did. Don't think needed a boat ride, but I guess said you gotta Point wherever he ends up. Yep. He's gotta go across new world or whatever is that he's basically starts drinking the whole town. But or lock doesn't make new vampires. No, he is just killing people and so he comes like the plague and which is the plague and that's what if the plague never existed. Well, that's the thing too is that that's that's the lore that vampires were birthed out of yep, because these diseases Is would come in the night and take your family members and like different houses would be affected and people would get sick and they would they would come ill and they get weak and then they get weaker and weaker and they finally died and people were very religious during this time because obviously like medicine wasn't caught up to the diseases that were rampant. And so like the these crazy lures were born in these fictional stories about like Monsters coming in the night and yeah vampires if you think about them like they are the plague. Yeah, and it was something about like a area as well that would lay dormant and could survive for a very long time. So like you would get sick weeks or months later and it would be the exact same thing and the idea would be that like in Salem's Lot your family member was coming back from the grave to kill and drink your blood just fucking nuts because like yeah, like families would would slowly get infected over months and years until the whole family was gone. Yeah. I mean like until we understand things we will always have myth and it's how we are able to L each other such great stories and you know now that we live in an age of Science and everything is in explaining age of son sighing. We have left our superheroes. This is why we don't have Original Stories We need myths guys, we need tragic no kidding. Um, we need unexplainable things and we just need ways to rationalize them. And I love that about human beings. I think that's so great. And I think that's why the stories that have persisted for so long like Frankenstein and Dracula are born out of and a needs to And the world around us and in some way they still do like I have watched and read versions of Frankenstein so many times and every single time. I see I feel like I learn more about the human experience, but the stories never changed and it's okay because it's because they're Timeless. They're the reason why they're like the pedestal Horrors because they're so perfect for every human experience that even though we have computers in our pocket today and insulin. We still understand the most classic body horror. Now. What do you what do you think about the rules to kill or luck? Like you think it's just like oh if he if he's getting some of that good blood he's gonna lose track of time if he drinks after Dawn and he's fucked. Yeah. I think it's fun. I like it to have to make a simplified rule that's going to carry through a silent film. So they needed something that could be demonstrated visually and the the clucking of a A rooster at dawn and the clock tower is like that's as on the nose as you can get ya and the sun coming up which and I also fucking like that Ellen saves the day. Yeah, she fucking rules. Yeah, and because specially for how she started the movie and making her such like a sad little Wallflower. Yeah because she's just like lost her bones. What will I do and she was so sad at the lake waiting for the letter and then he was like, I got me a bit by mosquitoes. I miss you. So the fact that she is his undoing. I mean she also maybe dies but have yeah, she did it. She didn't need the help of anybody. She does it secretly and she just like lets it happen and she saves the day she's a fucking chance butter is too busy being Kenneth Branagh has such a good description. You know, I think it's worth saying especially given that we're talking about the sun coming up one thing that it was kind of hard occasionally was and it again, you know, It's silent film the cameras are not incredibly strong. We need a light source in order to capture. These pictures was trying to figure out what scenes took place during the day in which took place at night. Any time you saw or lock. It was supposed to be nighttime despite her, right it is yes. Well, it's just exterior shots. Look inside. You can fake it a lot like, oh we got candles no big deal like you have candles at night. There were so many scenes where it's just like it looks like he's walking around in broad daylight and you know the thing that was well. Yeah, but it's supposed to be nighttime the thing that fucks you up. The most is is Francis Ford Coppola has Bram Stoker's Dracula because they're like, oh, yeah Dracula, you know, you know against common belief can walk around during the day he could oh, yeah. It's very meets mean a meter like the Marco. You're right. He's like I have crossed oceans of time. Yeah, right and I wear sunglasses cause it's very bright. Yes step inside my top hat and I'll feed you some Essen. Let's go in the Seedy brothel. Oh, yeah. We're just like he wants to eat her. I can oh man. One thing. I really liked watching Nosferatu this time around is we're a lot more familiar with Salem's Lot now. Oh sure and it made no será to a funner watch for me because I know that the character design of Barlow lean really heavily on warlock. There aren't a lot of vampires that have that bat like look. Yeah. It's like the long pointed ears and the bald head but the story of Salem As lot seems so much more Nosferatu now that I'm comparing both of them. Okay Nosferatu is yes. It is a kind of like a bastardized Dracula but the coming of the plague kind of thing and like the nightly murders of people in the town and how he is still interested in Ellen, but he's more just there to like feast and party and ravaged this area. Yeah Phelps very similar with Salem's Lot. So that's a good point. I don't know if I I knew Enough about I was familiar enough with Nosferatu to draw those connections when we were watching Salem's Lot the school. Yeah, you know the interesting thing like because yeah, they move into town and Salem's lot and then they slowly just kind of like take over that is something that I continually forget about the Dracula story. Nobody comes knocking on his door to ask him to move to London, right? He approaches a real estate agent because he wants to buy property. He's already thinking of moving he's all right come and then like, oh, my reincarnated girl is there. Yeah. All the better really roll the dice on this one. It paid out now hard question for you. Are you ready Nosferatu? How do you rate this movie? Yeah. I don't know how to rate it because any other scale that we've used has been based on Modern filmmaking, you know what I mean? Yeah and a 4 out of 4 or something like that or like a three and a half out of four or three out of four even feels like like lip service like all those times. We were like, oh, yeah, but is it on Rotten Tomatoes when it Release kind of thing like anything that's really old gets that like retrospective rating where you just appreciate something. That's really good and it is a Marvel of filmmaking and it's wonderful for its time of its time, but it's actually like really great creature design for today. Yeah. That's the thing like you still looks good. It still has scares that play really well like the only weakness is that it had were weaknesses of the day. It still has a great story a great. Great presentation. It's just it's all done in 90 like early 1920s filmmaking where this was still a new media. Like the adaptation is even still fresh. Like if I saw a version of Dracula that was just Nosferatu today, I'd be like, these are some good decisions. Yeah. Yeah. I mean like the only thing that doesn't really play well with me in the movie. Is there bastardized version of the Renfield character as he just he's just kind of Yeah, cuz like he's just gonna cut him entirely could have but I think they just like the idea of him having power over a human being and she's never meet some though. I know he never meets them. It's just like it's like a Harbinger just like somebody who's waving a flag for Nosferatu to come into town. But yeah, he doesn't play into the story at all. He climbs the Prison Walls pretty efficient. Yeah eats bugs. I'm about it. I like Renfield characters that I don't I love I love rent. I know you do. I am all about I'm more of a Mina character. Yeah, she's great. She's integral to the story. But where are your character actors? Give me your Tom Waits has your I lost his name from 30 Days of Night rating everything. He's in he's so gross. Okay. So what's your rating? I don't know. Can we just say that it's super good and important and you should watch it. It's 1920s out of four. 18:22 out of four, I'm gonna give it a three and a half out of four. I'm doing three and a half. Yeah, we're all sorry Rin. Yeah. No, it's super great. It's amazing. Where would we be without it blows? My mind is like, you know, you'll say all the time. I can't imagine a world without a movie like this. We almost live in a world without this movie. I think it's even better though that that they were like destroy all the copies and they're like we will yeah like fingers crossed behind their back like the three baddies and Nightmare Before Christmas. Yeah, of course and they like threw them down to Oogie Boogie, but they kept set like they kept a few of them. Let's be real. Yeah. Here's the other thing too that we don't necessarily think about when we're talking about movies like Nosferatu and the Cabbage. Dr. Caligari is that we're Super Lucky they exist for those reasons, but also because somebody hid copies from the Nazis the Nazis destroyed so much art so many films So many paintings books that just don't exist anymore. We have records of people who have seen them and remember them and can essentially give us a synopsis and who worked on them, but that is it and there are actually some really cool artists that do. I'm sorry. I'm taking us on a bit of a left turn here, but there are some cool artists that have taken films usually like artistic surrealist films. There's one I remember called ghosts for breakfast. It's really strange, but we only have a A video portion the audio is completely destroyed Nazis destroyed it like the accompaniment sound effects music does not exist. So lots of artists have redone their own version of the music for it including people like like Ergo Fizz myths and people like us if you like really weird experimental music sound collage artist getting into strange territory, but the simple fact is there was a great filter it a court system and there was a great filter. That you know destroyed not just art and film but also a lot of like a generation of people and it is amazing that we still have movies like this and you should see them if you haven't this has been John's corner. I'm sorry. I lost I realized like how preachy it kind of became but to make a sound bite for whenever you want a tangent. Well, here's the problem John's Corner. We live and die job. That's not bad. Bad, you know what I should do when I when I know that I'm going on one of these tangents is close my eyes because what you got to remember is I'm having a conversation with you out there right now, but also Kim here with him and I have to stare into her eyes and I can see her go. Uh-huh. I just like to thank and smile think of all the editing. I have to hear you're incredibly polite, but it does it does slow. It's like all of a sudden I'm in Spic water. Why do you hear I can't reply. Even if I want to do you like? Oh, yes, I've heard of these Nazis before that's about it. Yeah. Yes Nazis terrible. I had ghosts for breakfast myself this morning ghosty OHS. That's what you do when you're on a fast, you know, you just eat it eat ghosts for breakfast think of how many good poems. I could have come about ghosts for breakfast. We're doing it right now. Never gave me that chance. Do you want to talk about Cabinet of dr. Caligari? I think we should is it Caligari or Calgary think it's Caligari. I always say Calgary. I know there's not my in there but like any other eye and I before the gee thanks Kelly. Yeah, it's that Canadian accent Caligari. I like Calgary. Oh, no. From 1920 Robert wines Cabinet of dr. Caligari is currently sitting at an eight point one out of 10 on IMDb 100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes 4 out of 4 from Roger Ebert and four out of five letterboxed. I'm gonna be like full spoilers ahead. Uh-huh. This is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's pretty amazing. Right? It's pretty wonderful. Goddamn. Is it good the level of Whimsy? In the set design and the the character makeup is enough that even if the story wasn't good and in the whole point of the film wasn't good. I would still love it. Like there's absolutely not a moment where I don't want to have like my eyes burning into the screen. Yeah, isn't it? Isn't it? Great when a movie can make you upset that you have to Blink. I just want to absorb it all. Oh, yeah, no, like watching you watch this movie is great because you also come from a very artistic background visually. Thank you. So like you are pointing at things to me that I'm not necessarily noticing and when we watch these movies to I try not to talk to you at all because I like to log thoughts that I have to talk about them on the podcast. So obviously we were talking about them fresh here, but I found myself unable to not Point things out. I like look look - I'm glad you pointed out something. I definitely did not necessarily think about the lighting being painted on the oh my God, that's one of the things that this film. I know we kind of touched on the blending of stage and screen with the films in the 1920s and this this film exemplifies it more than any other film I have ever seen because of how exaggerated everything is this movie exists in a van Gogh painting so much so that you aren't actually sure of the proportions of the room. Umm, that you're staring at yes, like there's a lot of forced perspective. But because it is that van Gogh's style where what we've done is we've basically taken a photographic image and we've simplified it down to shapes and lines and what they have done is they then taken that thing that simplified down to shapes and lines and they've stretched it for depth like an accordion. So they're pulling it apart you like almost like string cheese. Yeah, and so we're looking at a bunch of shapes and lines with depth That are recreating like and accountants office a law office of fair cobblestone street and you can if you squint you can see a cobblestone street totally but you're really only staring at like a gray skewed bunch of boxes with some circles drawn on the ground and it looks like a fucking cobblestone streets. It's amazing. It's incredible. You know, those those art installations that you see sometimes when you're like scrolling through Facebook where it's like, oh, it's a ladder and then the person who's physically filming it like walks. Around and you realize that it's just a bunch of different weirdly shape things that are just staged in a room like with a bunch of depth at only look like a ladder when you're standing one specific spot. Yeah, that's literally what the fragmentation of the Cabinet of dr. Caligari looks like. Yeah. And so the the lighting that you would see like sunlight coming through a window or a lamp that's lighting the streets is actually painted in White in a highlight. Oh, yeah, and you can see it to even in The character design. Dr. Caligari, he's got white lines on his gloves. He almost looks like Mickey Mouse when you're looking at him when you're looking interpreting his character literally, but when you watch him moving his hands, it adds like an extra level of detail when he's moving his fingers because the motion allows you to like blur like what's a highlight and what's a low light. There are streaks painted in his hair to make him look like a crazy Doctor Who's got the like the graying streaks on the top of his head? But that's done in makeup. So great. Now you're I'm sure you're familiar with Nosferatu. It's very easy to get it's a Dracula Story You've seen Dracula stories before if you haven't seen the Cabinet of dr. Caligari or you just unfamiliar with it. It is essentially a recounting of a story this man is telling to somebody on a park bench about a troubling time that he and his fiancee went through recently focusing specifically on she walks my like a ghost. Yes, sir. And that is my wife. That's my fiance. We've had a rough patch. What the fuck is going on with this girl. She's just like Allah. I said just troubled focusing specifically on a Carnival attraction. That's come to town called The Cabinet of dr. Caligari where dr. Caligari has a man who's been sleeping for 20 or 30 years that can answer questions about your future that maybe you don't want answered that then lead to some mysterious murders in town. And the rest of it's about trying to figure out who is committing these murders and whether or not dr. Caligari has anything to do with it. Hmm the entire movie you could literally put every single set inside like a tennis court because there's this sets are so claustrophobic but because they do such a great job staging them. I feel like we've seen the whole Fair. Yes, there's like umbrellas that are pretending to be carousel. Then like it's wonderful the entire movie made me jealous that none of us decided to speak up in high school. And since you why are we doing? This is a play could do it. It'd be so easy. It's just black and white and lines like oh man, like I wish we had a time machine I could go back and like really push for it. Anyway, it doesn't really matter but like like like a think about that school to do alien recently like they need to do the Cabinet of dr. Caligari. Ah, so cool and it's silent like the you could do something real cool. Cool with a silent film on stage just in how you're going to present the the language. Maybe you just have a screen behind you that occasionally the words come up on like that's the easiest solution but rather than trying to deconstruct how we would do it. Let's let's just talk about the movie. Do you remember the first time you saw images from this movie? No. Okay, I do I guess so I'll get into that. Yeah, another this movie Haunted me for a few years because I didn't know what it was and it was just Used in another movie where it's like characters doing heroin and watching the doctor cabinet, dr. Caligari because they wouldn't have had to pay for it. It's just it's free use. It's like it's like every horror movie has Night of the Living Dead and it because who do you got to pay for that? Right? It was just the scene where Caesar is coming in to Jane's room and he's brandishing the knife. Yeah. It's fucking incredible programs in the window. Yeah and how he just how he just breaks the windows apart because there's that there's literally a cut there so after he breaks a window, Oh, there's before breaks a window. There's a cut after he breaks a window. There's a cut so his foot is already inside the window and they just did I think to make him look more Sleek, but there's something that doesn't connect quite with your brain. So it's really creepy when you don't see him step in the wind. It's so funny you say that because I'm sure the audience that originally saw this in 1920 didn't have that same experience. I think what it is is it is a re-creation like there are missing frames that are just destroyed that you See there was a disclaimer at the beginning of the movie talking about the restoration process and how there are some scenes that you know, obviously don't look nearly as good and there are some jump Cuts but they've done their best to edit them. So I think it's just that you know, the movie has a hundred years old and we don't have a pristine copy of it and it's making it better by not having those connective bits where we see him step through the window. I could be wrong. Maybe that's how it was edited. And if it was I would not be surprised and good God is it great and like the staging that whole scene is amazing. I mean if we want to stay under that one seed for a minute when he destroys the window so he can come in was like the most mind-shattering part of it to me because the window looks like a general window, but the way he breaks it. It's like a Matchstick house good God is an amazing. And so I saw that in a movie and I never knew what it was from and I kind of I honestly I thought it was a Culkin like I thought it was a Coke again. It was like, how did I get this weird art movie that Macaulay Culkin did one time and then like the knife came up and we cut away and I was like, I need to know what the fuck that was and then just you know by happenstance like a few years later Halloween. This was on he became obsessed with it. And it was yeah. That was the first time I'd seen it from beginning to end was on how we night. Was it Halloween we watched it. We yeah, we watched it years and years ago. I was on TV and yeah, and there was just like it was such a great morning to such great quality and I just we were just stuck to it. Yeah, I don't even if we did intended to watch it, but we just like flipped and it was started in July started. Yes. This will happen is this is gonna happen. If you want to explore more silent films Turner Classic Movies still does silent Sundays, they are usually on a little later at night. But yeah classic movies as a great genre film lineup, by the way, John you would like to give them the weekend lineup that we've been on. Yeah. Okay, so at 2 a.m. Eastern standard time on Friday nights, you can watch Turner Classic Movies Underground. Kind of just like for weirdos and it's John Waters fancy camera film. Yeah, it's great. And if you have to stay up till 2:00, but yeah at least in our time zone and then I'm a big Noir alley guy. So Friday nights at midnight. I like watching noir films and if I fall asleep in the middle of them, I can watch them again on Sunday at 10 a.m. He bonded with an old man about that. I don't what he's I guess I'm too late and then they won't like shit knocked elbows over like but it's on its exam though. Weirdos up with the birds. You're gonna walk around the mall yesterday heading. Yeah. Also, if I only need to watch the second half it's 11:00 a.m. I don't need to get better. They're still serving make breakfast smoothies. Great. I love every fucking thing about okay. Can I talk about what another one of my favorite please? This is still going to be a sideshow of stuff. We like we're yeah, we're still on set design. We're never going to get away from it. He is fucking trailer how well did they nail his trailer? I like the inside of his trailer because he's Ian like a clown car the set is so big. When he when were inside it with dr. Caligari and his cabinet. Yeah, it's a full room and then you realize when they're outside knocking on his door how tiny the trailer actually is but when they cut back and forth between the scenes which are done really well for it being 1920. I will add. Yeah the skewed perspective. So I think I might not be right on directions. But when we're in the trailer with dr. Caligari, everything is skewed left, but when we're outside side and looking at the trailer the trailer is a slanty shanty skewed right? Oh shit, they take the slant is consistent from the outside to the inside. So great. This is what I love what even even when the door opens. So like when the door to the trailer opens a we get to peek inside you can see the lamp and you can see the armchair and the distance even though you can very obviously see that that trailer doesn't go to any know. It's only like a foot deep. Yeah, like you can go inside and close the door and that's it. But they've done a Little bit of interior decorating to that 1 meter square space when they cut to the inside of the trailer. You can see everything stretched out. Okay, quick question. Yes. What is the cabinet? It's the coffin thing. Is it is it the coffin thing that has seized are inside or is it the the cart that he has that is impossibly large on the inside that also houses a another mystery inside of it, or is it the town that is impossible that has the carnival that has the the cart that has the coffin inside or is it mate? I think you see where I'm going with this is a Russian doll scenarios because that's the story itself exists in its own little contained Universe. Okay, so I'm saying like if we keep pulling these pieces apart think the cabinet is our own fucking mind. I still think it's the coffin. That's he's ours. I mean, you're probably right. It's probably because he keeps pointing to it saying this is my cabin and I'm dr. Caligari, probably right but like the way we're Talking about it now and like I don't necessarily I don't think I was thinking about this at all while we were watching because he's got to let this fucking movie wash over you. I think we are in like a Russian doll. Scenario. Definitely man. This movie is good this then here's your like you're talking about how great this movie is to look at and you know, like how you know silent film has something to offer that other film doesn't especially in the experience of it. But like how often do you get something even of this period or modern day where? It's visually this rich but also the story is as satisfying because this I don't think I remember the end of this movie like I I'm almost positive either. I fell asleep and hid it very well when we first watched it on Turner Classic Movies years ago, or I'd forgotten the final moments of this movie because it's a mind-blower. I have to say that like when I first even this watch like every time I finish it, I'm just like no it's over and then you think about it and you're like that's really fucked. Literally when it starts to kind of unravel and we're not quite sure if Caligari is is dr. Caligari or if he's the head of this this Asylum and then there's that scene where he's running outside and we have the lettering on the actual set. Yeah. There's that like manic moment where he's I'm dr. Caligari. I'm dr. Caligari. Yeah, because he is reading a book about kalighat like dr. Jekyll. Mr. Hyde. Yeah. Yeah. And yeah, you got your time man everywhere. Yeah, but it's like he has to tell himself that story to reinforce it to believe it for it to become real and then he gets locked up because like, oh, you're a crazy person you were used to be mr. Doctor and now you're Caligari you've gone off the deep end and people are dead because of you. So they lock them up. But then later on after friend Francis has relayed this whole story to us and we're in the mental institution again where he's you assume. He's visiting his A all of a sudden a very clean-cut prim and proper mr. Doctor comes down and he starts accusing him of being dr. Caligari and how no one everybody thinks that he's cured and he's running the hospital again, but it's false and you can't trust him and then mr. Doctor. These are ya who's holding flowers? And is this like lovelorn sort of quiet boy. Do you kind of see that his fiancee maybe has like they kind of lock eyes for a minute and there seems to be something between them and not Francis and his fiance and you know, you know, obviously he he has this this explosion and he seems very erratic and they put him in a straitjacket lock him in the same room where dr. Caligari was, you know, 20 minutes ago. I would posit the theory that it's not a theory it's what happens occasionally. Okay, so he and his friend are in a love. Angle essentially with chain they both love this girl and you know lucky for Francis the next morning. His friend has been murdered by c-czar. Oh, so we're not on the same. I don't think we're on the same page. No, I have no idea what you're talking about now. So our lead character is an unreliable narrator. Yeah who's in a crazy house? Yes and has made a story surrounding people that he's just inhabiting that crazy house with totally. Yeah. I don't think anybody's been murdered. You don't think he ever actually killed his friend like he went off the deep. Append because he killed his friend and then he's been put so OK OK awesome pause pause. He's like there goes my wife. He's talking to another patient may be. Oh, yeah, totally ssion and crazy who uh, he thinks his wife is walked by cause she's like, I'm the queen every well. That's why she also has relationships with any of these. I don't think he does either I think we think the exact same thing. It's a usual suspects that area and he's making up a story based. People around him right because this is the original Usual Suspects Keyser Soze. No, I guess all I was trying to figure out is how he got in the mental institution by being I guess he could just be crazy, but I figured maybe it had something to do with him killing his friend and going off the deep end. I guess I just assumed that part was still real. Okay, but you're right and fuck that was a good ending in. Nine people were still going like on can you fucking believe he was crazy the whole time 19 20 1920 and it's so good and it's just like all of the set design like we still like the mental institutions still very weird and Industrial and forced perspective and stuff. But like it's at that point that you realize because we are in a story that he is telling that everything is so exaggerated and weird and I'm not a book. It's a story that he's telling that's great. What if what if the only reason Looks like that is because we are now Inside the Mind of the person hearing the story of somebody who's got a disjointed brain. Yeah. There are a lot of movies modern movies that look like this you would think there'd be more because of how Monumental it was it is for Cinema. You think that there would be a whole genre of film today that look like the Cabinet of dr. Caligari. The closest I would say that we have to the level of styling of this film would be Tim Burton. Yeah, the level of fantasy visuals. No other director. Could you name that goes as Fantastical in a grounding their films that make sense. Yeah, totally. I'm a Hunter with a lens which makes this a like a perfect pin in its time and place in cinema because as we evolved to better film quality realism became the ideal yeah and getting things as close to life as possible the 1920s. We were still doing plays and things were exaggerated and bigger than Life because because there was distance between the audience and the visual medium. So the films of the 1920s didn't necessarily have that goal that we have now with especially more K and like in the in the 60s like adding color and all of these Evolutions we've made to making film as close to real life as possible. I mean this pristine perfect person a real life. So yeah, I would say that the film's today that are like the Cabinet of dr. Caligari don't necessarily have that. German expressionism look to them but their movies like Pleasantville or that director who does those drug trippy movies where they're like cartoons, but they're actors. Oh you're talking about Richard linklater is like Scanner Darkly exactly. Okay stuff like that it timbered. I was actually going to bring Scanner Darkly have them so glad people who play with with real to life stories, but they choose like a visual left. Turn for the sake of art. Yeah. Or doing something that isn't pristine like a heightened real? Yeah, David Lynch's Eraserhead sure creating a hard. Stop visually just to be an artist is yeah, like the new Twin Peaks tough. For sure. Yeah. Yeah, it's crazy like and I were recording this in December. So I apologize if I've already talked about this a bunch in a mini episode or something but to keep it short that is the strength of silent film and black and white film in General really is that it is already unlike reality. When you go see a movie, you know, you're not looking at real life but like movies nowadays especially will make you want to feel as though you are immersed in the real world black and white film is unlike life. There is nowhere you can look where it looks like a black and white film. So you already accept it as something that is not reality and it can do strange things like force perspectives that you cannot get away with in real life. We're already in a fantasy world. So you already giving more of yourself over to accepting it and no film now color for k8k wherever we go. We'll be able to achieve the same things that black and white and silent film could okay. So I have a question for you. Yeah, they are remaking cabinet Valkyrie. Okay, not that they are but this is the scenario. I'm I'm proposing who you're talkin. Okay Culkin. Yeah, I got it honestly, and this is This is actually really great for this is a dumb tweet of mine from like two years ago and he Culkin I don't care which you like. It doesn't matter to me. You want Rory Culkin? I'm there. Yeah. I know the Culkin's you do know like, okay and then so I didn't finish my question Who Would You cast? Yeah as everybody else. Yeah, so as dr. Caligari Brendan Gleeson from In Bruges, oh and 28 Days Later, he would be mine. For Caligari Francis the crazy person if we can clean them up a little bit for the front half and honestly, maybe maybe our remake every doing straight shot for shot remake or do we maybe play around with the storyline little it's your remake? Okay, so I'm going to I'm going to leave things open and I'm gonna cast as Francis a very clean-cut initially Caleb Landry Jones. Oh you you're going dark with you forever. Well, yeah. Well, here's the thing I think and kill Landry Jones and a Culkin. In would make a great cabinet. Here's the thing. What if at the end we there is no separation between our two characters. That's what I'm saying. We we leave our options open by doing that casting. Who would we cast as Jane? Unfortunately. Jane doesn't have much to do in this movie. I want it mean I don't know Jane Levy cause I like her I honestly don't know who he would cast. You know, you know what I know, Rooney Mara. Whoo, there's my casting one's great Rooney Mara Caleb Landry Jones and Rory Culkin. I'm Brendan Gleeson, I think secured and cold. Yeah, one of them was available. Okay my cast it'll be like a dog like we've got four dogs to play one dog of a movie. We got four Culkin's one of them is a mystery that's even better because if it's all like in a crazy person's mind and this is just a little bit. Yeah. I'm into it's pretty good. That's like The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Exactly. What's gonna bring up Parnassus are NASA's another Tom Waits. It's Tom Waits in that. Yeah, he's one of them the Renfield. Okay, so my casting as dr. Caligari hmm, Kelsey Grammer. Oh shit. Yeah as Caesar now if this was made in like 90s, I would say Josh Hartnett for c-czar, I think. Oh, wow. That's okay because he's got this Like sad Loverboy look about him. Sure - like a Lucky Number Slevin Josh Hartnett was that we're talking about here like faculty Josh okay with this hairbrush down. Yeah until it's out of the pillow. He sleeps out of that movie today Robert Pattinson. Probably probably no one would be upset. And then what's that guy's name Caleb lender Jones know the prince Hagen is Francis, Francis Francis. I would cast your I don't know if you're going to agree with this one Jason Segel. No, I like it. No, I'm not gonna lie. My Caleb Landry Jones is a bad pick because from frame 1 you go that guy's crazy. Like there's there's there's no point in that movie where you think this guy is a reliable narrator Jason Segel great choice. I think he's due for like a serious role. And also I believe when he talks to me, so I wouldn't he also looks you in the eye like he was leaving kind of guy. Look you in the eye and also he looks a lot like the actor that plays the original I think you're right. Yeah. Oh what if we can use that same D aging like technology from the Irishman on Willem Dafoe and what if we got him to play every role like my good doctor include images are but yeah, so if we had Jason Segel as Francis, I would cast that actress from Freaks and Geeks as Jane. Oh, wow. Yes. So if you're gonna do that, I think you should really go like the full stretch. He said that's right. So like Seth Rogen Caligari and Franco James Franco is this is the friend that got killed. Yeah. That was fun. That was fun. That was really good. Yeah. Yeah. I got my Caleb Landry Jones is a bad pick but it but whatever I would agree with it Freddy anything you want your like. We're going to put kill blood runs. Isn't a good idea. No, that's that's my problem is like any this has happened a few times where people like what's your dream cast for this movie? Like well, we start with Caleb Landry. Yeah, then we follow through with Jay Levi. It's just so fucking good and everything. Yes good. So I assume you're ready for ratings in order for yeah, four out of four. Fuck this movie is good. They movies hate to talk about the desks in the the permit office for in your fair installment. Yeah, the guys in the desks are like the desert Like Elephant desks. The front legs are taller than the back legs. Every single frame of this movie is fucking incredible. There is there is no moment. That isn't just like you just want to take it in. I don't even know like I just I want to eat this movie. I just I just want this movie to be like if you could like cut open your eyes so that your eyes became Mouse. Oh sure just like help with your eyes. Yep. Yep. Did you give it a rating I gave? Yeah, I gave it a 4 out of 4. Okay, you were too busy like replaying the movie and your mind. Sorry Black Death. It was very pretty but where I turned my eyes and no mouth. Damn is movies good. Oh boy. Well, let us know what you thought of Nosferatu and the Cabinet of dr. Caligari. We're about to go watch it again. Obviously. Oh definitely. Yeah, but who likes off in la-la land 74 minutes. You can watch this movie twice so good so fucking good happy. Year.
