Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) From this prodigiously talented writer comes a stunningly original fictional life of the German director F. W. Murnau (1888 1931). Murnau ranks as a founding father of the cinema, not least for his legendary horror film, Nosferatu. Here he is revealed as a hermetic genius who turns against himself, becoming in a sense his own vampire. What shadows Jim Shepard s Murnau through the airfields of the Great War to Berlin in the twenties and to the virtual invention of filmmaking is the conflict between his impossibly high ideals and his heartbreaking memories of love betrayed and love lost....
