The Blood Is the Life: The Making of 'Bram Stoker's Dracula'

Fifteen years after this stunning reinterpretation of Dracula was released (1992), we go behind the scenes and watch master director Francis Coppola reinvent a classic with screenwriter James V. Hart, and cast members Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Anthony Hopkins, Keanu Reeves, Richard E. Grant, tom Waits and Sadie Frost. Bram Stoker's Dracula was filmed entirely on the sound-stages of MGM (then recently acquired by Sony and Columbia pictures) and the visual style included vintage special effects and screen magic at a scale not seen in decades.\u2014Kim Aubry
