Halton Hills This Week, Wednesday, March:3, 1993:— Page.11 Dracula tempts the senses By Lawson Oates and Dawn Wood In making Dracula, Francis Ford Coppola has been successful in capturing the sensual and passion- ate side of Bram Stoker’s late Victorian novel. This is without a doubt a com- plex film not only in its plot, but also in its mix of the supernatural and the Victorian scientific ratio- nale The movie begins in the middle ages with Dracula’s (Gary Oldman) rejection of Christianity following his defeat of the invading Turks in his homeland Transylvania. In the hour of victory his beloved princess is deceived by the Turks into believing that her prince was killed. She throws herself off the castle battlements into the icy river below. Adding to this personal loss, the church pronounces: her damned for her suicide. Unable to accept Hacrisoa Pub School enjoyed a visit by Theatr "ABMNAtDG a group ‘hursday morning.

By renouncing his religion, Dracula joins in league with the sinister forces of darkness. We are then fast-forwarded four centuries in time to late Victorian London. Count Dracula is in the process of moving to London and a solicitor (Keanu Reeves) is dispatched from a London law firm to Dracula’s Transylvania castle to complete the paperwork. Here the battle between good and evil begins, as Dracula first makes a prisoner of the solicitor then seeks out Mina (Winona Ryder), the solicitor’s fiancee. Passion, sexuality and immorali- ty become the sub-themes.

A most welcome addition to the cast is Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Van Helsing. Hopkins provides the comic relief in an otherwise ten- sion-packed plot.

The difference in the centuries and culturally diverse locations are linked together through the literary imagery used in the novel. In the film, we see the recurring images of water and blood. Fans of Dracula movies will not be disappointed in the Coppola ver- sion of the classic as there is a req- uisite amount of neck champing (good sound effects) and flashing canine incisors.
