🎃 Horrorthon 2022 #30 🔥 100th Anniversary
Wanted to watch this 100-year-old film for the anniversary this year, but I had to be very careful... because every other time I've tried to watch it... I'vefallenasleep.😅 Almost happened again this time, but I ultimately made it through!
The restoration version I watched was very well done. Here's all the info about the restoration process posted at the beginning of the film:
NOSFERATU was restored by Luciano Berriatúa on behalf of Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-Stiftung, Weisbaden in 2005/06. A tinted nitrate print with French intertitles from 1922 from the Cinémathèque Française, Paris, was used as a basis for the restoration.
Missing shots were completed by a safety print from 1939 from Bundesarchiv-Filmarchiv, Berlin/Koblenz, drawn from a Czech export print from the 1920s. Other shots were taken from a nitrate print of the 1930 version, distributed under the title DIE ZWÖLFTE STUNDE [THE TWELFTH HOUR], preserved at the Cinémathèque Française, Paris.
Most of the original intertitles and inserts are preserved in a safety print from 1962 from Bundesarchiv-Filmarchiv, Berlin/Koblenz, originating from a print from 1922.
Missing intertitles and inserts were redesigned on the basis of the original typography by trickWilk, Berlin. They are marked with F.W.M.S.
