* ForeignFanservice: According to her interpretation of Guy Maddin's stage-to-screen adaptation of the ''Dracula'' ballet, Maddin sees Dracula as a symbol for Lucy's sexual awakening, who feels more drawn to the foreigner that to the proper British gentleman pursuing her romantically/sexually. This becomes an EnforcedTrope, when revivals of the production [[RaceLift cast a person of colour]] in the role of Dracula, while slotting white actors on the other roles, to highlight Dracula's "foreigness" and "exoticness".
