Gothic Romance; Stellar Adaptation
20 September 1998
Francis Ford Coppola and Jim V. Hart deliver in so many ways on this wonderful, heart breaking film. Gary Oldman is the tortured demon, who for once is given a soul. Winona Ryder is the reincarnation of his long lost wife who becomes the object of his all-consuming desire. The production values are absolutely flawless in every category, the acting is all top notch (besides Keanu Reeves, obviously struggling), especially, Oldman, Ryder, Sadie Frost, and Tom Waits. The tragic, crushing ending is one of the most emotional Hollywood has ever created. A success on many different levels, and the most faithful adaptation of Stoker's timeless classic ever made.
