BE WARNED... lT’S ALIVE!
Kenneth Branagh leads an aIl-star cast including Robert De Niro, HeIena Bonham Carter, Tom HuIce, Ian Holm, John Cleese and Aidan Quinn in his definitive cinematic version of Mary SheIley’s cIassic tale of gothic terror.
At the turn of the 19th century, visionary scientist Victor Frankenstein (Kenneth Branagh) embarks on an obsessive quest to conquer the mysteries of human mortality. But his hubristic bid to create life out of death goes hideously wrong, and succeeds only in begetting a deformed monster (Robert De Niro). Horrified by what he has wrought, the scientist attempts to destroy his creation, but fails. Rejected by his creator and shunned by the worId of man, the tormented creature swears vengeance against Frankenstein and his famiIy. As the monster begins to enact his murderous revenge, Victor must face a terrible reckoning with the tragic consequences of attempting to play God.
Mary SheIIey's seminal noveI is one of the most adapted books of aIl time, and this retelling faithfulIy goes back to the original source, lushly transforming the story's twin themes of love and death into a darkly operatic gothic romance. UnIike many versions of ShelIey's noveI, Branagh's adaptation understands that Frankenstein's misbegotten creation is as pitiable as he is monstrous, and never loses sight of the human tragedy Iying at the core of its horrific tale. Filled with sweeping, atmospheric visuals and powerfully emotional performances from an award-winning ensemble of acting taIent, Mary ShelIey's Frankenstein stands as a landmark interpretation of this enduring masterpiece.
