    Happy Halloween, dear NBP listeners!! With the previous release of Francis Ford Coppola's "Megalopolis," and the upcoming release of Robert Eggers's "Nosferatu," we decided to take a look at Francis Ford Coppola's own vampire film, his adaptation of the classic "Bram Stoker's Dracula" from 1992 starring Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Anthony Hopkins, Keanu Reeves, Richard E. Grant, Cary Elwes, Billy Campbell, Sadie Frost & Tom Waits. Both hailed and critically scrutinized for its overblown visual aesthetic, style, and performances, time has been incredibly well to this take on the sexy, gothic vampire story. What did we think of it? Tune in as Lauren LaMagna, Cody Dericks, Dan Bayer, Brendan Hodges, and I share our thoughts on the cinematography, editing, costumes, score, performances, writing, its awards season run, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for all your support, and enjoy!
