I just saw this film recently. Now my autistic ass has stayed up all night researching Polidori and his tragic life. I even red one of his essays he wrote, staying up til 5 am reading all 63 pages. And of course Alex looks like Cupid throughout this entire film. How dare they abuse him? 😢 That scene of him crying tore me to pieces! Damn you Lord Byron! Damn you all for disrespecting Polidori until his death at just 25! Even after his death he was disrespected. His grave was dug up and hewdstone supposedly crammed with many others surrounding a tree while his body was dumped into a pit with the others that were dug up. I love Alex and love Polidori. 🥺
Alex really has an incredible charisma in this film - he seems so vulnerable, really like an angel. His performance also really touched me, especially the scene where he cries... it's just so extremely heartbreaking.😢 And of course I also feel so sorry for poor Polidori.🥺
@cachal I just bought the soundtrack from the movie and I plan on getting the DVD too since it's such an obscure film (apparently). I can't explain to you the feelings I felt when I first heard the opening track and saw the opening scenes/credits. I felt like a little girl on Christmas morning, discovering something magical and whimsical. But it only broke my heart in the end so I totally relate! 😢😭 I also plan to get a book of Polidori's poems to read as well.
What sucks is Byron historically took credit for The Vampyre, then when it was revealed to be Polidori no one cared because Byron was better known and more well liked. So even in real life Byron was as much of a bunghole as he is in film
I am amazed. This never happened. How could they! 😢 So much calumny! Byron is not what you have heard of. I have made my research and Byron was not like that. He was just a divorced man and like any divorced man he met a new girl and he tried to built what was then destroyed. But Clara was too modern with her feminist ideas and Byron was about a normal traditional woman. Women approached him, not the other way around. He did not have a father and that affected his behavior. Unhappy married women for some unusual reason fell for him. Maybe because he seemed to be the ideal romantic man, or even because he was famous. And Clara had been persecuting him to exhaustion at a moment he was vulnerable. Also he never did such a thing to Polidori. Never at all!!!!

Interestingly, Dr. Polidori wrote the short story "The Vampyre," and then Alex Winter ended up playing one in Lost Boys. ;D
It's all connected XD

@@brideofcthulhu347 Tragic about Polidori. I read his essay on the source of positive pleasure, he seemed like a fascinating mind.
I love him so much 🥺💕
He is so adorable!
WHY HE SO FUCKING FINE😩👋
He is marvelous, isn't he? ♡
Even Stendhal commented that Polidori was a very handsome, tall man.
I got so sad when he started crying :(
Me too! It kills me every time ;_;
Me too
I feel so sorry for my baby it makes me wants to cry 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Between all those devils, the only one who interest me, Polidori
😮😮😮😮😮😮
