Task 1: Movie Adaptations of Dracula Watch a twentieth- or twenty-first-century movie adaptation of Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula. Some popular adaptations include a 2006 BBC telefilm, Dracula; a 1931 movie by the same name; and a 1992 Francis Ford Coppola film called Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Consider the way that the movie depicts the plot of the story, and compare this to Bram Stoker’s narrative in his novel. How and why do you think the representations of the characters, themes, or plot sequences are different? How does the medium of film alter the way the story is presented? How might the difference in the historical period when the novel was published versus when the movie was produced influence how Dracula is adapted?
