An extremely interesting documentary although not usually quite like this. It relates to a film being made by Jess Franco of Count Dracula (1970) during General Franco's regime, by Pere Portabella which is a mix of footage and other angles, also of his own bits along the way. He often uses surrealist like solarised images by overexposure shots. Especially in the woods with the horse and coaches most affective, also with the dry ice used for the mist and plays around with it. The sound, but no dialogue, is rather clever although rather annoying near the end as if the sound has been stuck. It is really good seeing Christopher Lee here in black & white and silent with a lot of age added. It was also good to see Herbert Lom here but of course it is really great to see Soledad Miranda, and the odd smile for us, and then killed in a crash weeks away.
