@@stevekinlough588 although that was an interpretation more faithful to the book (tbh), lugosi's interpretation was more iconic cause' dracula wasnt a horrible criature, he was "attractive and beutiful" for the public
i think lugosi's performance is brilliant and far more thought out than people realize. dracula is a 600 year old vampire and, other than the three wives (based on the three witches in Macbeth) he is totally alone in the castle. he hasn't tried to interact with human beings for hundreds of years (prayed on them yes, interacted with them, no). i think lugosi has thought through this and is playing him as someone who is trying but can't quite remember what it's like to be human. particularly eerie when he says, "goodnight, mr....renfield," in such a way as to give you the idea dracula is thinking, about renfield, "Isn't that cute...it thinks it has a name."
He also was playing late 19th/early 20th century Romanian aristocracy to a 't' (at least, that is, a certain kind of stereotype to which the contemporary audience would have related). It wasn't so beyond belief that an insulated Count would be this socially awkward. Lugosi had stunning intuition into the role, that defined it for generations, if not forever. Where attempts in film at vampires to date had depicted them as ghouls, the touch of eerie creepy class he added made the monster just familiar enough to terrify.
In the novel, Dracula was a Szekely. They were (and are) an ethnic group that lived in Hungary and Romania. They were often militarized to defend the lands against the Ottoman Empire. The medallion Dracula is wearing contains their ethnic symbol, the sun and crescent moon. Which ironically looks like the symbol of their sworn enemy. Stoker did his homework.
what gets me about Lugosi's performance is it gives me the feeling he's a six hundred year old vampire trying to remember how to act human for the guy who arrives at his castle. well thought out on Lugosi's part.
Renfield never noticed the door opening by itself as Dracula approached it. "I have chartered a ship to take us to England...we will be leaving tomorrow EEEEVENING." The way Lugosi delivered that line of dialog still sends a chill down my spine. My Romanian grandmother loved this film.
this was incredibly awesome, how he said the line. very spellbinding. he was smiling a lot at that moment. he couldn't wait to drink the blood of all those sailors.
We now have nearly a century of Dracula caricatures for comparison but imagine experiencing Dracula for the first time in the 1930s....bet it scared the hell out of the audience.
@@scottmoore1614 Absolutely ! The famous german cinematographer Karl Freund emphasized Lugosis intimidating predator gaze by pointing a flashlight at his eyes.
everyone praises Lugosi for his performance but can we just appreciate Dwight Frye's INCREDIBLE performance as Renfield?? He played everything masterfully, and he gave me actual chills in some scenes.
I am Hungarian and when I meet English or American people they often ask me if Bela Lugosi was my relative. My reply ' yes, he was my grandpa" always arouses enthusiasm. I wait a minute and then I tell that my grandpa was not the Dracula actor but his name really was Bela Lugosi. (and later our family name has been changed to Lugossy but the pronunciation is the same)
I'm Polish-American not Hungarian, but and I still find your reply to people funny on so many levels. I'm just glad that the Witcher is popular now and everyone can know there is a lot more to Eastern European folklore than vampires.
That hypnotic stare by lugosi's Dracula is utterly frightening,...as the atmosphere builds up of that of an eerie darkness, ....with vibes of evil intent,...he plays the role with charismatic calculated calmness,... that is visually so creepy and unsettling,...but also so captivating
Lugosi did play Dracula on Broadway. Similar but slightly different. The audiences see his performance from two different vantage points. As fate would have it Universal wanted Lon Chaney Sr. for the part because he was an established Hollywood actor who played so many characters. But he died suddenly in 1930. So Lugosi got the curtain call. And we are thankful.
This is why no other Dracula actor can top Bela Lugosi considering that he was the first actor to play Dracula. Add to the fact that he portrayed him in the first Dracula movie ever made makes him even more iconic and unforgettable. Long live Lugosi.
@@moroaica3660 More accurate to the book too. Dracula as described by Stoker was more demonic. But Lugosi sort of introduced this idea of Vampire as suave gentleman.
"Never has a role so influenced and dominated an actor's role as has the role of Dracula. He [Dracula] has, at times, infused me with prosperity and, at other times, he has drained me of everything.” Bela Lugosi, born this day in the Kingdom of Hungary in 1882, died August 16th, 1956.
I don't know how much of Lugosi's performance was thought out - I'd like to think he was doing all this deliberately and I'm not just idly speculating - but Dracula's mannerisms and mode of speech are just perfect for both a 600-year-old vampire who hasn't interacted with humans socially for centuries, AND a perfectly human (if reclusive and eccentric) nobleman who doesn't speak the language well. For a young English solicitor who hasn't seen much of the world, it's easy to write off one's uneasiness at simply being in a strange place with unfamiliar customs in the company of someone who doesn't have a perfect grasp on the English language - the way he says "eve-ning" for example is both a vampire's ancient tongue trying to speak normally AND a foreigner's unusual intonation of an unfamiliar word. I like how his accent becomes less noticeable when he arrives in England - he speaks more fluidly and less stilted, because of course he was trying to learn how to blend in from Renfield and the others.
one of the best lines in that movie, delivered with awesomeness and brilliance. "I have chartered a ship to take us to England. We will be leaving tomorrow evening." So spellbinding the way he said it. He was smiling so deviously, while holding that handle.
His accent resembles that of any hungarian who has no "ears" for English, or just the capacity to leave all these hungarian twirls behind when speaking English.
Superb acting. This movie _unlike those of today_ didn't rely on fast editing or CGI effects to be scary, Bela Lugosi merely acts entirely evil, with scarily convincing results. Note how slowly he moves towards the table and pours the wine. Every gesture is thought through. He is both graceful and bone chilling at the same time.
Love the way Bela moves both arms together and simultaneously picks up the wine bottle and glass. Such economy of movement , while at the same time being a little strange or odd. And he never takes his eyes off Renfield. Chilling !
kids today wouldn't watch this or appreciate the horror in Lugosi's speech and every movement or look in his eyes- they're so brainwashed by CGI, and special affects, not to mention the horror of being forced to watch. movie in B&W, they could never appreciate his skills. Makes the comparison with the crap remakes since then ALL trying to imitate Lugosi in some way.
If memory serves, there was no music soundtrack in the original release of the film- which made it even more eerie to watch! Too, in the original stage version of “Dracula,” Lugosi had to learn his lines phonetically as he didn’t know English! And a nurse would be stationed outside the theater each night to handle medical emergencies! Dwight Frye (1899-1943), who played Renfield, was a well-known character actor in Hollywood in the 1930’s, especially in Universal’s horror films. He also played Fritz, Dr. Frankenstein’s assistant (not Igor), in “Frankenstein (also 1931- the same year as “Dracula”).” Frye died of a heart attack at the age of 44 while travelling by bus in Hollywood, a few days before he was scheduled to begin filming the biopic “Wilson.” He is interred in Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park.
I kinda liked it better without soundtrack, it felt more nefarious. Also i think what sells Dracula is, he seems like he could be a normal everyday person, and yet... there is something off about him? So the actor is pretty amazing in this regard
Lugosi is my favorite "Dracula" his presence, style, accent, the Tux, make him so believable. And I love the Black and White version more than any other. Second Christopher Lee !! 👍
Lugosi had long, beautiful fingers which enabled his fingers to "act." his long legs (6 feet 2) look fantastic in his suit and tails. gotta give it to him, Lugosi had a VERY nice physique.
Hollywood did not appreciate it's talent; Dwight Frye faded into obscurity, mostly assigned to small and often uncredited and cut roles, while Lugosi had to do low budget C-tier poverty row movies shot in a week and ended his career working for Ed Wood Jr.
also, that ring is on point and the way he holds the bottle after he puts it down; his long fingers drape the lower part of the bottle. again, beautiful fingers.
I think Lugosi's take on Dracula is interesting. Dracula was a six hundred year old vampire who lived with only other vampires for hundreds of years. I think Lugosi played him as someone struggling to remember how to act human.
Every Halloween I watch the 1931 version of Dracula with Bela Lugosi. It has been restored, so it's possible to enjoy the original quality of the photography. It's just such a classic.
An absolute MASTER CLASS in how to be utterly, but subtly terrifying. You know he has untoward intentions. You know he is effectively a demon...but he is so charming, welcoming and dare I say friendly that your psyche knows full well you wouldn't see him coming. As effective as The Alien is in 'Alien' by NOT being shown, Bela Lugosi is infinitely more terrifying by being hidden in plain sight.
Nice clip. One of my favorite scenes is when Van Helsing asks Dracula to look into the small mirror in the cigarette case. Lore states that a vampire casts no refelection but maybe that is only true to mortals because when he looks into it, he must have seen something totally horrifying to himself, of himself. Maybe his very unpleasant future ?
You know Mr Lugosi played Dracula on the stage..was a Hungarian actor. Very fine actor & person.....very attractive man as well...thats why ge was considered& chosen for the role....the rest....is history.............
To think all the stereotypical portrayals are beyond campy but the original where it all started still exudes such an air of genuine sophistication, class, and sinister evil.
I love Helen Chandler as Mina. She is so young compared to Lugosi. She is not this voluptuous woman sought after by the Count. But this charming, sweet, and delicate young lady whom one would love to simply cuddle. And yet when she suddenly is infected with the lust for blood she comes across so vividly as she approaches Johnathan Harker.
@@Laura-pr2di His hometown of Lugoj now belongs to Romania. Bela Lugosi (real name: Bela Blasko) was in fact only half-Hungarian by birth, as his mother was Serbian.
Just to think that the stereotypical Dracula we see every Halloween all came from Lugosi...the accent, the hair, the mannerism...it’s amazing
Just like what Karloff did with Frankenstein’s monster that very same year!
the template
It’s amazing to think about this. It was one guy’s interpretation of the character that became the standard for all Draculas afterward
Nosferatu was the first in the 20's

Perfect delivery of that line. That little pause is just perfect.

*Mr Lugosi
"Never has a role so influenced and dominated an actor's role as has the role of Dracula. He [Dracula] has, at times, infused me with prosperity and, at other times, he has drained me of everything.” Bela Lugosi, born this day in the Kingdom of Hungary in 1882, died August 16th, 1956.

In going from stage to film he knew how to maximize the shots for the camera that are not seen on stage.
