Whenever the "Disney ruined men for me" quips and jokes come around I'm always like "Dracula ruined men for me" because Johnathan Harker loves Mina so much and I feel like Thomas Hutter is the best representation of that we've seen in all the Dracula iterations.

He doesn't understand but he loves her.

And then he begins to understand.

He experiences the darkness she's lived with her whole life.

And he loves her even more.

Then Ellen sees this and knows what she has to do. Because she loves him too.

Love is a verb. It's active and shown by what you do.

And sometimes it hurts.

I think one of the things I appreciated most in Nosferatu was the framing of Ellen and Thomas’s marriage. Despite the fact that he doesn’t quite understand Ellen’s otherness he still loves and accepts her completely. Their deep love for one another is still so palpable even in the thick of Orlok’s manipulations. I just think it would’ve been so easy to make Thomas a witless and uncaring husband and Ellen an unsatisfied wife. But no. Despite everything, they love each other completely. And that only makes it all the more painful.

🪻Analysis time because I cannot stop thinking about this film.🪻

I’ve been thinking a lot about language in the film and how it functions symbolically.

Each final word of each character points to that which they desire most.

Orlok’s final word is “mine,” with respect to Ellen: his utmost desire is to possess Ellen, to reclaim her, and be with her eternally.

Ellen's final word is “more," pointing to her insatiable appetite for touch, sex, and intimacy of which Orlok is the manifestation.

Orlok’s and Ellen’s final words of course mirror one another as iterations of the appetite.

Thomas's final word is “Ellen,” because what he desires above all is the person of Ellen whom he has known as his wife—he prioritizes her companionship and her safety.

Friedrich’s final word is “sleep,” pointing to his constant desire for peace, stability, and comfort. Even long before the main conflict of the film impacts his family, he complains to Thomas about the demands of his role as shipmaster.

Von Franz’s final word is “Nosferatu,” because what he desires above all else is to vanquish the creature for the preservation of the city but also for his scientific and philosophical fascination.

Finally, interestingly though perhaps less important, Sievers' last word is (appropriately given his profession) “madman.”

That’s all I’ve got.

The symbolism of the flowers in this movie is amazing, because in the final scene you can see that the lilacs are there with them at the end, alive when they're not 🖤😭

Let us put them in water. They will only die in a few days, throw them out. What? Throw them out! What are yo—? You cannot leave. What is this? I must tell you my dream.
