Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein: Look how they massacred my boy
Om avsnittet
Quick film review before we get back to the final part of Moby Dick.
Guillermo del Toro's long-awaited Frankenstein adaptation is absolutely cleaning up in the Oscar nominations, including a nod for Best Picture.
Benny and Rich make the comparison with Mary Shelley's source material and find it to be sadly wanting (altho we do have some nice things to say).
On the dumbing-down of nuanced morality stories, and the ubiquity of daddy issues/therapy speak in modern media. Can't a guy just be a crazy hubristic scientist anymore??
Plus: a brief detour through the horror of quantum immortality.
