A good night for mad scientists
Jun. 25th, 2012 10:39 pmSaw Frankenstein for the second time in ten days tonight, and then came home in a thunderstorm. As I was walking from the train station the gaps between the light and the boom got shorter and shorter, so I'm on the wifi now.
I think I like the version with Jonny Lee Miller as the creature best. Benedict Cumberbatch makes a better Victor -- it's easier to see him getting suddenly fascinated by what he's wrought. And JLM is more physical as the creature. But both versions were very good. Please NTL, someday, consider DVDs! Not only for this, but for earlier performances as well. I want to see Nation!
