FRANKENSTEIN (1931)
Special Features: FREE for SCC members on Oct. 26!
“It's alive! It's alive!” Colin Clive’s Henry Frankenstein determines to create life itself, but proper brain procurement proves the sticking point. James Whale’s horror classic deviates wildly from Mary Shelley’s source novel — and film history is all the better for it. Boris Karloff poignantly conveys the Monster’s own terror and humanity beneath memorably grotesque makeup by Jack Pierce. DIR James Whale; SCR Francis Edward Faragoh, Garrett Fort, from the play adaptation by John L. Balderston, the play by Peggy Webling and the novel by Mary Shelley; PROD Carl Laemmle Jr. U.S., 1931, b&w, 71 min. NOT RATED
