Bram Stoker's Dracula I have seen this movie at least 70 times. The thing that stands out above all is this beautiful/complicated love story that spans centuries.A monster that can change form or become formless. The "Monster" is not the Dracula you remember from Lugosi or Christopher Lee. This monster is very powerful, very powerful. The only part of this movie that is hard to believe; is that this creature/man has survived centuries, has ample opportunity and the means to kill everybody in the cast, yet allows himself to be slain and be separated from his lifes love. The first time I saw this movie I wasn't all that impressed, but something about this movie attracted me, and I had to watch again, and again. This is first and foremost a romance. Watch everything, especially the shadows. Dracula got my respect on this one, the only problem is, that now I want to be Dracula. To have power over the beasts and the wind,to be able to cross oceans of time. Congratulations to everybody involved in this film, and thank you very much. And to Mr. Gary Oldman; I don't think Sir that you will ever have a better role. I have been impressed by Gary Oldman in everything I have seen him in. Bravo
