11/20 Viewing • Why I chose YF… • One of my favorite comedy films • My mother and I used to watch it and laugh a lot; my father never understood the humor.
11/20 Viewing • Why I chose YF… • Literarily, it’s a spoof on the whole Frankenstein story, with a few comic twists: • Frankenstein pronounced Frahnk-en-steen • Igor pronounced Eye-Gore…also, his hump moves from one side to another. • “Frau Blucher’s” name makes the horses whine; “blucher” is German for “glue,” which is made from horses’ hooves.
11/20 Viewing • Why I chose YF… • Movie-wise, it’s filmed entirely in 1930’s style black and white • Iris out, fade to black transitions
11/20 Viewing • Movie Legacy… • Aerosmith song “Walk this Way” inspired by Eye-Gor’s “no…walk this way”
