About this poster
Count Orlok's shadow climbing the stairs, a real frame from Murnau's 1922 film in its teal night tint, under the hand-lettered title from the original title card.
Nosferatu – Eine Symphonie des Grauens is a German silent film by F. W. Murnau, written by Henrik Galeen and produced by Prana Film. It premiered on 4 March 1922 in the Marmorsaal of the Berlin Zoological Garden. It was an unauthorised adaptation of Dracula, with Max Schreck as Count Orlok.
The poster uses a real frame from the film: Orlok's shadow climbing the stairs, claw raised, in the teal tint of the night scenes, sinking into black towards the bottom. The title is not a font. It is the hand lettering of the film's 1922 title card, lifted from the frame, cleaned and recoloured pale yellow. Below it comes the first sentence of one of the film's intertitles, in German: „Tönt dies Wort Dich nicht an wie der mitternächtige Ruf eines Totenvogels.“ with a translation underneath: "Does this word not sound to you like the midnight call of a bird of death?" Then "Max Schreck · Graf Orlok" and "Ein Film von F. W. Murnau · Berlin, 4. März 1922".
A shadow on the stairs
Almost everything is black and sea green, like an old cinema print. The film grain is kept; it is part of the picture. Hang it in a living room, by the TV or in a dark bedroom, wherever you watch your films.
