New Movie Blog & Count Dracula Feature
Welcome to my new blog on movies based on history! I plan on using this blog to post information about some of my favorite history films and offer some critiques of how Hollywood has handled history.
I also just want to talk about some of my favorite films and books.
So for starters, I want a place to post one of my YouTube playlists. One of my favorite books I read for the first time in 1989. It was Dracula by Bram Stoker. I have seldom, if ever found a movie version that was very faithful to the book. I thought the "Bram Stoker's Dracula" version from back in the early 1990s attempted to be faithful, but changed several things for appeal. I did not like that version. But I recently found this version from a BBC drama back in 1977. I wanted to post the playlist here so I can be watched from YouTube straight through. I think this might be pretty close to the book. Here it is. Enjoy!
