Vampyr (1932) Screening With Live Score by Lori Goldston
Inspired by the cinematic storytelling and eerie, evocative imagery in current exhibition "Jamie Wyeth: Unsettled," Goldston’s music will amplify the film’s emotional tension and surreal atmosphere.
Dreyer’s interpretation of the classical vampire tale follows Allan Gray, a student of the occult, who arrives in a small French village only to find himself entangled in the plight of a family beset by unexplained illnesses, dark forces, and sinister living shadows. Reality and nightmare blur amidst chilling atmospheres and dense fogs.
Initially dismissed, "Vampyr" is now recognized as a uniquely haunting and influential treasure. As filmmaker Guillermo del Toro notes, “Vampyr is as close as you get to poetry in film. It’s truly a meditation on life and death and the beyond.”
This program is presented in partnership with the Grand Illusion Cinema.
