i'm in the middle of reading bram stoker's dracula (can't afford to go see it)
and i can't help but notice how often stoker tells of his characters' bathroom
habits. first, dracula tells his guest to go 'make a toilet' before he may eat.
later, lucy is described as 'making her nightly toilet' before she goes to bed.
i can't quite understand the importance yet, but i'm sure it will tie in
somewhere. i'm waiting to see if dracula himself will 'make a toilet'.

-jane

no 'making toilets' in the movie, i bet.
