    I think your audio commentary is well done, even if I haven't listened to it completely yet. You have my respect for the fact that you are commenting on the whole film, not just a short excerpt! There is a lot to discover in this film; one interesting thing is the gestures of the main characters. In a book that deals with this film more intensively, I read the following passage: _Finally, it is the woman who tears her gaze free and calls the vampire to her (with the same gesture with which she had previously received her husband) - while her husband's gesture at the window is ironized by a scarecrow - and Nosferatu follows her as if in her sleep._ It's true: in the end, when Ellen opens the window and invites the vampire, she imitates the pose she took at the beginning of the film to greet Hutter. Especially striking is the scene with Hutter and the Scarecrow! When Ellen shows Hutter the house across the street, and Hutter calms her down, he shortly after moves back from the window, and has the same posture as the scarecrow, which can be seen a few scenes later. I have always wondered why he holds his arms in such a strange position - but now it makes sense.

    This was taken from the Laserdisc and DVD versions. This was not his commentary meaning the uploader.

    Unfortunately, the version of the film you're showing is shortened, and there are intertitles missing. Example: 1:06:40 A scene is missing here that shows how Ellen reacts to the text in the book. She throws her head back and has an almost lustful expression on her face. That's unfortunately missing in your version! Or: 1:16:58 When Nosferatu´s shadow clutches Ellens heart, in the uncut version her reaction to it is about a second longer, in which you can see her facial expressions. This second is also missing here.
