Question / "Shadow of a Vampire"
* SPOILER *
I enjoyed "Shadow of a Vampire" (2000) very much... mostly because I have always liked 1922's "Nosferatu." I rememeber reading that Max Schreck was a little odd! I even read that he thought he was a vampire (I can understand that). But what I don't understand is the ending... when Max's shadow is not seen in the mirror and then the sunlight kills him. Isn't this movie suppose to be a TRUE story?? I mean, I was following along just fine until the end. I think the movie lost its authenticity at the end... it had the "Amityville Horror"-effect... a little TOO Hollywood... don't you think? Fiction is one thing, but are we suppose to believe Max really did not see his shadow? What's the deal?
