Decades Later, 'Bram Stoker's Dracula' And 'Mary Shelley's Frankenstein' Make For A Sublime And Fascinating Double Feature

Decades Later, ‘Bram Stoker’s Dracula’ And ‘Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein’ Make For A Sublime And Fascinating Double Feature In 1992, when Francis Ford Coppola releasedBram Stoker’s Dracula, his tragically romantic take on the gothic horror story was well-liked enough.

Donald Sutherland And Gillian Anderson Join William Hurt For TV Moby Dick

Donald Sutherland And Gillian Anderson Join William Hurt For TV Moby Dick It’s rare that I look at a TV project and wish that it were a $100m theatrical production instead of a much smaller television affair.
