Holy shit. An interview about film with actual useful information and not just calling everything they do "phenomenal" or "amazing." Seriously great interview. Others need to take notice
True. Sadly however he ruined the movie by making it Dracula the mustachioed zombie instead of Orlock proper. This was a terrible rip off for anyone expecting Orlock. This Is just Dracula
@@JakeBlake-m3d nothing funnier than people bitching about an adaptation not being identical to their favorite version. just go watch the original if you’re this mad about it
@@JakeBlake-m3d He based this off earlier versions which the movies/media you're likely thinking about are themselves adapted from, taking their own specific liberties which one may prefer, or not. He's done his research. He just hasn't based it entirely off of what you happen to be familiar with or prefer.
This is absolutely the best interview Rob Eggers has ever given. In no small part, to the incredible film critic, Anna Bogutskaya. The first time I heard her, was on a review she did of a movie I can't recall right now, alongside Mark Kermode. I have the Blu-ray for The VVitch, and she has the other commentary track after Rob's own. She is very knowledgably of the occult, and is very well articulated as such, so her track is a treat. Here, she is picking Rob's brain so well, and for me, it has told me so much more about him and his process, than I ever read or heard in the last 10 years combined.
I've watched several interviews with Robert about Nosferatu so far but I have never seen him laughing and joking that much. He gives off such a light-hearted impression here, thank you for demonstrating this side of him, he is so talented and adorable!
The more I see his movies and his interviews, the more I feel like he makes movies just for me; I connect greatly with his obsession and passion for the past.
I don't remember him being so amusing and joker before. Good to see him growing confidence and being more comfortable not only in filmmaking but also in interviews and public press. Can't bloody wait to see Nosferatu!
As an archaeologist I love how committed he is to accuracy and I love how specialists talk him down from perfection. The Northman’s creative liberties add so much colour to the Viking world. If he ever wants to do some scary Neolithic conflict scary stuff based of Vrable, I would probably expire from joy.
I've really enjoyed watching interviews with Robert Eggers after seeing Nosferatu. He speaks about his art in a really approachable way, never too pretentious but not dumbed down either.
Great interviewer! I really enjoyed her questions, she got a lot out of Robert I hadn't quite heard before, and she had a good balance of friendly rapport and letting Robert speak
Incredible interview, huge thanks to Bogutskaya for these questions as well as the notes of humour in there, really a fantastic mixture. Could have watched 5hrs of this!
Interesting that he mentions "The Lighthouse" and "Nosferatu" as the films which are closest to his imagination, since those are clearly his best two in my opinion.
He is such a great artist and I love how generous he is with sharing his background, ideas, inspirations, and creative processes with the public. He's very inspiring to all young artists out there.
People get the impression that a filmmaker, such as Robert Eggers, doesn’t like big budget Hollywood films. But, he loves those movies. Back than, those films had heart and creativity
It’s crazy to me hearing that The Witch and The Northman weren’t actually what he envisioned because to me they’re both such thrilling, vivid, experiences.
I really appreciate when he talks about how its real to the characters. Thats what makes The Witch so impactful, because to these extremely devout Puritans they really are being haunted. The realization to them that demons can quote scripture, and their son really was possessed is terrifying to watch. Same with The Northman where modern norms have no presence. Revenge to this medieval Scandinavian man is real
It's fascinating to hear him speak self consciously about the VVitch and saying its not what was in his head, when it's a straight up masterpiece. Imagine if it turned into what WAS in his head!
Some of his sketchings of witches are such a clear influence on the design in The Witch. I remember seeing Bloom’s name in the “special thanks” credits and perking up. Match made in heaven!
So funny he mentions The Duchess of Malfi. Ever since I watched The Witch and The Lighthouse I keep thinking I'd love to see what his version of The Duchess of Malfi would be like.
might of found my new fav filmmaker this exactly how i talk about my shit , rambling extra and passionate while stuttering (i actually do stutter not making fun ) bro 3 for 3
Incredible, and now hearing you'll also have Denis, I'll be tuning in. Any spoiler warnings? I am familiar with Murnau and Herzog films and the original novel.
I was concerned about Spoilers but I didn't feel anything was spoiled. I think they know many of us don't want anything spoiled. There is a lot of chat about his career.
@halcyondaystunes I managed to not watch the trailer and only saw a few promo pics. I adore the atmosphere of Robert's films and I don't wanna see anything too early! Unfortunately, the sadistic Polish distributor set the local release date for.. 25 February 😕It will be painfully exhausting wait - but it's Eggers. You MUST watch this in a cinema!
@@KlownKing14 so your logic is that since their friends they must be as talented as eachother? Clever... its pretty well known that both midsommar and beau if afraid is mediocre at best.. Guess u loved Borderlands also, since Eli Roth and Tarantino is buddies.
Something tells me Robert Eggers would get a lot out of going to an Orthodox Liturgy. You get a traditional form of symbolism but instead of it focusing on a self will to power like the occult/paganism you’re focusing on the transforming power of love, beauty, and heroic self sacrifice. Historically you can see the effects of both on societies in the past as i’m sure he knows ☦️🙏
I wish interviewers would ask the more thematic/esoteric questions on how develops characters for example: in the VVitch Thomasin name literally means gemini or twin which eludes to her dual nature while at the same time they had the gemini twins who actually made contact with black Philip and called her out to be the actual witch. Very interesting
Eggers is really good. Not a fan of the lighthouse, but that is more taste than criticism. I like him cause he makes movies about something and say F what is popular or politically correct.
How are his films not "politically correct", as if that's even a concept substantial enough to aim for? He's promoting a film here where he himself notes that he wanted to place more emphasis on a female protagonist, for one thing.
He is good, but there are great British filmmakers as well. The UK film industry needs the biggest help after Hollywood has crushed our industry this year in 2024 with a recession.
He has said he has no interest in Contemporary or Sci-Fi films, and even if he did it would end up being something like a Tarkovsky imitation. But alas the slop lovers just want everyone to do a superhero or star wars film
As he said, it was a big production and he had to get used to being more of a little fish in a big pond and the end result was farther from his personal vision as a result. There may have been some studio meddling, he alluded to it with the "no penises so it could be shown on airplanes" comment, but it's still a much more unusual and unmarketable film than most at this budget level so he wasn't entirely under the boot of the Money Men. My guess is that the storytelling was just more influenced by traditions we're not used to, even in Eggers films, and it falls at a budget level where it can't quite be a personal and singular vision nor a large epic blockbuster which leaves it in a strange limbo space. I still think it's a really good film despite it all though
What is he talking about? Approx. every second part Dafoe takes is a character based on another Dafoe character from the past. Something he's done to an extent which has rendered some audience weary of him.
Nosferatu is not exacly a Happy family freindly chrsitmas movie seems an odd time to bring out a horror film. Xd Nosferatu Movie vs Sonic 3 vs Mufasa The Lion King
@@TarotTheater I just hate to see these directors who are known for their auteurism being posted to directing Fucking comic book movies. That’s all. If that is what they want, whatever. It’s just sad to see.
@@49dwalin55the problem with that - the way Robert shoots his movies make them too chamber-esque, you might say. It results in their pacing being extremely slow to the point where they feel almost meditative. He cares little about full-dynamic action unless it’s serving his cinematographic ideas. And Batman is the type of material that requires this sort of action in a substantial amount. I’ve seen a lot of people criticizing the pacing in the latest Batman movie. And we’re talking about Matt Reeves who’s way more “mainstream” director than RE. Also his storytelling style is too obscure and metaphorical for such familiar (even archetypical) character as Batman. We can always remember how Nolan deconstructed “Batman idea” through post-9/11 context. But Robert’s approach is rather historical/philosophical than social (unlike Nolan). He likes to keep his general ideas open to interpretation. So that version will be difficult to understand for the mass audience. I personally think that: 1) this character is too “narrow” for Robert, 2) his version will most likely fail to appeal to the mass audience and result box-office flop. And I’d hate to see unique talent like him becoming the victim of the corporate machine. Though I’d say that movie about some sort of parallel-universe variant of Batman (like Gotham by Gaslight or Dark Nights Metal) done by Robert would be interesting. But anyway I’m still convinced that it’s better to keep things as they’re now.
The directors' reason behind the Hondo mustache makes it all the more silly... because Peter Jackson had to add particular scales to the dragon for historical reasons?!?! lol I would argue that if the norm were to have a mustache, then Orloc, being an antisocial freak, would buck those norms and shave his face, looking like the weird, creepy, scary-ass freak that he is!
The movie would have been perfection if it wasn't for Willem Defoe's goofy performance. The man has become a parody of himself, oscillating between Liberace and Vincent Price. It's unfortunate because the overall story was spectacular, but every time Defoe appeared on the screen I was transported from Biedermeier Germany to a Vincent Price Halloween Special.
In your eyes perhaps. Eggers has been a heavy-hitter since The Witch and his movies are always some of the most anticipated by the public. Him and his names are known already!
He ruined this great looking movie by doing "nosferatu" in NAME ONLY! Count Orlock? In NAME ONLY! This is NOT Nosferatu and it is NOT Orlock. This is 100% Vlad Tepes Zombie in a remake of Bram Stokers Dracula for 2024. Sadly that's all this is. He had a chance to honor the classic look of Orlock and FAILED! He had a chance to give him his own story separate from Dracula...he failed! This shouldn't have been called anything but Dracula AGAIN
I think she used the word they,reffering to the family of Thomasin. "As the family was expelled" from it(the community they lived in). Don't think she would use a stupid pronoun for a young woman in a movie that's taking place in the 17th Century.
@@Aesopos Stupid pronoun? Bro, it's basic grammar lol and the use of they/them for only one individual predates the era where The Witch takes place. Quit saying nonsense!

Yeah
I don't remember him being so amusing and joker before. Good to see him growing confidence and being more comfortable not only in filmmaking but also in interviews and public press. Can't bloody wait to see Nosferatu!
i've also noticed he's gotten much more confident and enthusiastic in interviews. love to see it
I noticed that too. He was very stiff & dry before. I prefer the relaxed, relatable version.
Nobody makes movies like him. His Nosferatu is now my favorite film!
I love that he’s very passionate about historical accuracy and he loves history and folklore. It’s also cool that he comes from a theatre background
I saw The Witch a few years ago and an obsession was born. Have eagerly looked forward to every film he's done since and he never disappoints. ❤
Such a thoughtful interviewer
The best new director. I love all his films. Such an artist and faithful to history.
This man rekindled my interest in cinema! I haven't watched anything in years, but his movies are different and have such atmosphere. I love it!
