For Silja

“I would like to have done a vampire sequence in one of my films, even though, personally, I cannot even look at blood, let alone drink it… But the vampire is a concept too strong for fantasy.”
I, Fellini,
Federico Fellini
“It is time for our culture to abandon Dracula and pass beyond him.”
Burying the Undead: the Use and Obsolescence of Count Dracula,
Robin Wood
