Title: GODS AND MONSTERS (1998) Post by: alandhopewell on August 27, 2013, 02:02:57 PM (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b3/Gods-and-monsters.jpg/225px-Gods-and-monsters.jpg)
I bought this thinking it to be about the making of BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN. As it turns out, GAM is a study in frail humanity, played out in the life of director James Whale. The film pulls no punches, yet makes no judgements, nor did it make me want to judge Whale (played masterfully by Sir Ian McKellen), or any other character. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gods_and_Monsters This one's not going in the buy-back bag; excellent film. |
