Q: Build a movie plot around this: What word does landlady mutter? Nosferatu
A: Bram Stoker's widow has refused to sell the film rights for Draculato F.W. Murnau, so Murnau [John Malkovich] decides to film it anyway, changing the names ofthe characters, the title, and the locations. Thus, Dracula becomesNosferatu, Transylvania and England become Germany, Count Draculabecomes Count Orlock, and Mina becomes Ellen. After filming the beginningsof the movie on a soundstage in Berlin, Murnau is anxious to get cast andcrew to Czechloslovakia where they will be meeting up with Max Schreck [Willem Dafoe],the vampire hired by Murnau to play an actor playing a vampire.Murnau introduces Max Schreck as a character actor from the ReinholdCompany and explains that Schreck will remain in character at all times.Yet no one, not even producer Albin Grau [Udo Kier] knows anything about him. As avampire, Schreck is no Dracula. He is old and bald. He can't remember hishumanity; he knows only that his turning had to do with a woman, whoseface has long ago passed from his memory. He has lost most of his powers,e.g., his strength and his ability to pass through locked doors. He hasn'tseen the light of the sun for centuries. He lives in the filth of anabandoned abbey, keeping himself alive on the blood of the occasional rathe can catch. He thinks the saddest part of Dracula, which he read afterMurnau gave him a copy, is when Dracula was forced cook for Harker becausehe had no servants. He reads and angsts over Goethe's poem about Tithonus,a mortal who wished for immortality but forgot to ask for external youthand is now aged, powerless, and yet must endure...just like himself. Hehas agreed to make this film only because Murnau has promised to providehim with blood during the filming and, at the end of the movie, Murnau haspromised that Schreck can feed on Greta [Catherine McCormack], the actress who is playing EllenHarker.As the filming progresses, Schreck's performance is both inspiringand creepy, inspiring in how he captures the essence of the vampire andcreepy in his own personality...

Q: Build a movie plot around this: How was the film? Its illustrates that even against incredible odds
A: Its November 1999, and five days are about to rock the world as tens of thousands of demonstrators take to the streets of Seattle in protest of the World Trade Organizations Ministerial Meeting. Among them are Django (Andre Benjamin), Sam (Jennifer Carpenter), Lou (Michelle Rodriguez) and Jay (Martin Henderson). Each has a unique story, but they're united in a common desire to be heard and to make a difference in the world. For these four protesters, this is very personal and the stakes are higher than mere politics.A peaceful demonstration to stop the WTO talks quickly escalates into a full-scale riot, and soon a State of Emergency is declared by the Mayor of Seattle. The streets are mayhem, and the WTO is paralyzed. Caught in the crossfire of civil liberties and keeping the peace are Seattle residents, including its beleaguered mayor (Ray Liotta), a riot cop on the streets (Woody Harrelson) and his pregnant wife (Charlize Theron). The choices they all make will change their lives forever.Writer/Director Stuart Townsend brings together this talented ensemble to intertwine different points of view from protesters and police to delegates and doctors -- each of whom intentionally or accidentally find themselves on the streets of Seattle in those last days of the millennium. Townsend seamlessly merges footage of the real event with his fictional narrative. Ultimately, Battle in Seattle illustrates that even against incredible odds, ordinary people can change the world.
