Ruth Landshoff, Hans Ludwig Yorck von Wartenburg

Man Ray, 1930

[cannibalmukbang]

researching Victorian and early 20th century fashion for Kingmaker reasons has made me aware of something in the movie Nosferatu (1922) that I now consider one of the funniest things about Nosferatu (1922) and that is the fact that they chose to style Ruth Landshoff Like That.

See I had, between viewings, kind of forgotten that, unlike Dracula, which is set contemporaneously in current year Eighteen Ninety Whatever, Nosferatu is specifically meant to be set in 1838. And everyone else in the movie is like, as period accurate as you were probably going to get in a movie from 1922 that was aiming to be deliberately surreal and non-representational. The men have their cravats and tail coats and tight pants and Ellen has bell sleeves and a floor-length hoop skirt. Orlock's jacket is kind of atemporal but he's a vampire, that works for him. But then you have Ellen's friend Ruth.

Because I know many of you are not freaks in the way that I am I will break down the look. We have a flared bob. We have an ankle-length a-line day dress with a v-neck collar. We have paired this dress with a pair of pumps. So, in summary, very extremely EXTREMELY late 1910's-early 1920's. Why did they style her like that.

Like look at this group shot.

This is the 1920's version of ipad face, to me. To put it into perspective- 1838 was 83 years before they started shooting Nosferatu. 83 years ago from now times was 1941. literally can you imagine how funny it would be if this year they released a movie set in WW2 and there was one recurring cast member who is wearing a hoodie and yoga pants and it's never addressed.

And I'm not pointing this all out to be like 'cinemasins ding! immersion broken!' because I know Nosferatu is not meant to be a realistic-looking movie. It's German expressionism. It's supposed to be weird. I am pointing this out because like, this character has the same name as her actor, and she's not super plot-essential, and she looks extremely contemporary, so I think it's funny to imagine they put her in the movie last minute. like she's some rando who just showed up on set one day and they didn't have a costume for her but they let her be in the movie anyway.

Max Schreck in Nosferatu (F.W. Murnau, 1922)

Cast: Max Schreck, Gustav von Wangenheim, Greta Schröder, Alexander Granach, Georg H. Schnell, Ruth Landshoff, John Gottowt, Gustav Botz. Screenplay: Henrik Galeen, based on a novel by Bram Stoker. Cinematography:  Fritz Arno Wanger, Günther Krampf. Art direction: Albin Grau. 

As Bram Stoker first described him, Count Dracula was by no means hideous. Creepy, yes, but with his long white mustache, his aquiline nose, and his "extraordinary pallor," he must have been at least striking to see. Most of the incarnations of Count Dracula on screen have been more or less attractive men: Bela Lugosi, Christopher Lee, Jack Palance, Frank Langella, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, among many others. And lately, since Anne Rice's novels and Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Angel (David Boreanaz) and Spike (James Marsters), the tendency has been to portray vampires as hot young dudes like the ones seen on the CW's The Vampire Diaries and The Originals. Vampires have been getting more human. But not the very first version of Dracula portrayed on screen: With his steady glare, his beaky nose, his batlike ears, his long taloned fingers, his implacable stiff-legged gait, and his posture suggestive of someone who sleeps in a coffin, Max Schreck's Count Orlok (the name has been changed to protect the studio, which it didn't) is decidedly non-human. He's a mutant, perhaps, or an alien. He is also not sexy, which is something of a paradox because vampirism, with its night prowling and exchange of fluids, is all about sex -- or the fear of it. And yet this is probably the greatest film version of Dracula, even allowing for the fact that it's a ripoff, designed to allow the producers Enrico Dieckmann and Albin Grau to avoid having to pay the Stoker estate for the rights. They were sued, and according to the terms of the settlement all prints of the film were supposed to be destroyed. The studio went out of business, but Nosferatu was undead -- enough copies survived that it could be pieced together for posterity. Undead, but not undated: Some of the opening scenes involving Hutter (Gustav von Wangenheim), the novel's Harker, are a bit laughable given the actor's puppyish grin, and the character of Knock (Alexander Granach), the novel's Renfield, is wildly over-the-top. But Murnau knew how to create atmosphere, and he keeps the action grounded in plausibility by using real locations and natural settings. The scene in which a long procession of coffins filled with plague victims moves down a street (actually in Lübeck) is haunting. But most of all, it's Schreck's uncanny performance that makes Nosferatu still able to stalk through dreams after more than 100 years.

OHNE DICH

Wenn du nicht mit mir sprichst ist mir die welt zu still / Ich hör dich nicht und hör das rauschen nicht / Vom wind der hauchend in die zweige geht / Vom regen nicht der auf die blätter klopft

Wenn du nicht auf mich hörst dann pochen meine worte / An meiner lippen rand und sind so sehr / Auf luft und freiheit gierig und verdrossen / Weil sie im munde mir verschlossen stehn

Wenn du nicht mit mir schaust versinkt die welt / Das feld trägt keinen halm der boden bricht / Der dürre nebel steigt daraus empor / Und rückwärts geht zum herz der welt die see
