There is apparently still some justice in the world because Nosferatu is doing well at the box office, and a bunch of you listened and went to see it over the holiday weekend. We love to see it. We can hope that Focus Features continues to allow director Robert Eggers to make absolutely buckwild insane movies that seem like a terrible idea on paper but end up ruling. The cut currently in theaters is already damn near perfect, but if you wanted to spend more time in the beautiful world that Eggers created, you’re going to get the opportunity. Eggers, Willem Dafoe, and Bill Skarsgård all sat down with Esquire UK to break down specific scenes in the movie, and when examining the trailer, Eggers points out a scene that is in the trailer but doesn’t make it into the final cut of the film.
At the moment, we don’t know how extended the extended cut of Nosferatu will be, but the movie is already well past two hours, nearing two and a half, so depending on how extended it is, this new cut could be three hours long. Usually, I’m against long cuts of films, and maybe the theatrical version of Nosferatu will be better for being edited down, but getting more of this beautifully created world at the expense of the pacing for an extended cut? Sign me up.
