    Dracula (1931) cardboard debacle

    A strangely interesting analysis of this "mistake"...

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Ha. I remember Kim Newman (I think it was Kim Newman) talking about this years ago.

    I don't think this is a set mistake though. I think it really was meant to be an improvised shade deliberately put there by a character. But the scene of it being placed has been cut.
