Lecture--Caries M. Carel, Vice President Bankers Trust Room 20, Burden Hall...
DEWITT: Anything with Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. You think I'm joking, right? No, I love those Hammer things. Horror of Dracula: erotic as hell. Fangs into big-busted women in low-cut night gowns...Dracula's a fun guy. They're bringing him back in a new movie with Frank Langella. I snuck into the theater when he was in Boston with it...hated the production, but Langella was terrific-the most cuddlesome vampire ever to suck a jugular. Laurence Olivier will be Van Helsing-I'm gonna be first in line. Then Werner Herzog has remade Murnau...
...walk back to your car? There's more in Boris Karloff's monster in Bride of Frankenstein than in Interiors. God, what a wheeze-bag bore. I was embarrassed for Woody Allen. Oooh, were those actors acting. Oooh, spilling their guts out into the camera, "I'm so empty I'm so depressed I've got so much anger in me Watch me crack up Boo-hoo isn't life depressing Look at those waves I'm gonna walk into the surf Whoosh whoosh crash splash." Bleah. That's Woody Allen trying to be arty. All that Freudian bullshit...
DEWITT: Well I don't do it, but I like to watch it. I'm a voyeur. Hitchcock, DePalma, Scorcese's Taxi Driver. They keep me out of trouble. It's a crazy world, y'know Chaim? A crazy world. What else is this week? The Third Man. A thrilling Carol Reed movie, with those magnificent camera angles out of German expressionism and Orson Welles's Harry Lime, a slippery, outrageous performance by one of our greatest filmmakers. Touch of Evil is also in town. Best first and last scene in film history. Am I boring...
DEWITT: I'm a bit of an exhibitionist at heart...
