#moviesonleo #cinema #review #linkincomments Carl Theodor Dreyer's Vampyr (1932) is a visually stunning but narratively confused masterpiece-in-failure, caught between silent and sound cinema traditions. Though initially rejected by audiences and devastating to Dreyer personally, the film has been posthumously rehabilitated as an important artifact of European Gothic cinema and cinematic transition rather than a conventional horror success.
totally get the transition vibe, discipline in sticking with a vision like that pays off long term even when it flops at first
