	Bride of Frankenstein - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bride of Frankenstein is a horror film released on April 22, 1935, a sequel to the 1931 film Frankenstein.
		Although the name "Frankenstein" properly refers to the doctor, not the nameless monster, the "Bride of Frankenstein" of the film's title is the monster's mate (as intoned by Dr. Pretorius at the film's climax), not Frankenstein's wife Elizabeth.
		The bride's conical hairdoo, with its lighting–trace white streaks on each side has become an iconic symbol of both the character and the film.

		Their quest forms the inspiration for James Whale's "The Bride of Frankenstein" (1935), the best of the Frankenstein movies--a sly, subversive work that smuggled shocking material past the censors by disguising it in the trappings of horror.
		His inspiration for the Bride was Maria, the artificial woman from Fritz Lang's "Metropolis" (1927)--where he also borrowed ideas for Praetorious' laboratory, with its platform that lifts the Bride up to the heavens to be penetrated by lightning bolts.
		"Bride" belongs largely to Praetorious and the Monster, despite the subplot involving Frankenstein (Colin Clive) and his fiancee (whose wedding date is postponed by the doctor's distractions in the laboratory).

		Thus, Bride of Frankenstein is the definitive vision of the director.
		By kidnapping Frankenstein's wife, Praetorious and the monster force the doctor to once again generate life through electricity in what has become one of the most famous sequences in cinematic history.
		The Bride of Frankenstein is an undisputed classic and much of the credit must go to Whale's vision for the film.

		But Frankenstein has second thoughts and in order to put a little more punch behind his arguments, Pretorius befriends and teaches the creature, and eventually uses it as the ultimate weapon against Frankenstein himself.
		Unlike in the first film, Frankenstein plays a rather insignificant part in this movie and the focus is clearly placed on the creature itself as we watch it develop, learn and battle its emotions.
		Although it is not as complete as the release of “Frankenstein”, the film itself is historically much more important and shows many attempts to avoid the regulation system that was firmly established in Hollywood at the time.

		Colin Clive had to return as Henry Frankenstein, but he was being ravaged by the alcoholism that would soon kill him, and vigilance on the set was necessary to see he didn't drink.
		The Bride's hisses and shrieks were inspired by the angry swans in London's Regent Park.
		The Hollywood happy ending, where Dr. Frankenstein and his Elizabeth are allowed to live, paradoxically violated the censorship code which said that criminals had to be punished for their crimes.

		While there are some homoerotic undercurrents throughout Bride of Frankenstein, Whale was too much the prim and proper gentleman to rub his sexual preferences in the face of his audience.

		While Bride is generally thought of as the superior of the two films - it frequently appears in discussions of movies who offer sequels that surpass the originals - I think that while the two pictures are clearly quite similar, enough differences exist to make comparisons verge upon "apples-oranges" territory.

		The wait was worth it, as "The Bride of Frankenstein" not only broke box-office records, it is widely regarded as one of the few film sequels that is better than the original.
		I remember the first time I saw "The Bride of Frankenstein." It was years ago on a late night horror show called "Chiller." I remember that my parents went to bed, and I stayed up, camped out in the livingroom, waiting to be scared.
		Ironically, it was Karloff who was adamant that the monster don't speak in "The Bride of Frankenstein." Fortunately he lost, and his dialogue is some of the most affecting in film history.

	James Whale's Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
		When Henry Frankenstein's inanimate body lies on a table in his castle this reminds of a similar scene of the Monster lying on a table in the laboratory.
		Additionally, Frankenstein and Pretorius are filmed from weird tilted angles, often in combination with wide-angle close-ups of their faces, which gives the whole scene a restless, almost outlandish tone.
		Many viewers prefer Bride of Frankenstein to is predecessor due to its more complex, multi-layered structure and its unique, sometimes quirky mix of comedy, drama and horror.

	Bright Lights Film Journal \| The Bride of Frankenstein
		The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), in the guise of a comic horror tale, assaults the notion of the sanctity of standard sex roles and "family values."
		Even the bride's (Elsa Lanchester) true-life husband, Charles Laughton, was a noted gay masochist, a fact that fits her nicely into the film's schema of the camp assault.
		The film's major set-piece is the creation of the Bride, shot (by John Mescall) in a spectacular studio lightning storm with dazzling forced perspectives, tilted angles, and wide-angle close-ups of the crazed participants.

		Time has pretty much drained Bride of Frankenstein of any seriousness that it might well have once possessed (and I'm under the impression that the film was probably originally supposed to work as both horror parody and as the thing itself).
		The film culminates in the unveiling of the Monster's bride which, for the record, doesn't occur until the film is five minutes from ending.
		Having Elsa Lanchester play both Shelley and the Bride make her both the nominal mother of the creature and its intended mate, which is pleasantly deliriously Oedipal.

	The Bride of Frankenstein
		In the Bride's case, you actually get a much more fleshed-out ending that is ultimately more satisfying than the rather abrupt ending that characterized the first one (Henry gets dumped on his head off the top of the windmill by the Monster, then he's resting comfortably in his bed).
		Well, the Bride is made, cranked up on a platform during a big storm and is brought to life.
		This one steers completely away from all that, substituting healthy doses of dark comedy and a surreal quality (what was with all those little bitty people in the jars?) that made you wonder if it wasn't based on the works of the Brothers Grimm, than that of Shelley.

		Though Frankenstein professes to have learned his lesson regarding fiddling about with the Things Man Was Not Meant to Know, Pretorius’ pitch intrigues him, and he agrees to stop over at the other man’s lab to have a look at the results of his experiments.
		It is Pretorius’ hope that Frankenstein’s skill in reanimating dead tissue can be harnessed to his own capability to grow new living tissue to get around the problem Frankenstein encountered in his work, that is to say, his dependence on the supply of available human brains.

		Frankenstein is pressured by the mad scientist Dr. Pretorius to continue pursuing his research and create a bride for his creature.
		Having produced what would turn out to be the most memroable horror film of all time with Frankenstein, director James Whale went on to achieve the impossible by improving on his own work with the funnier, broader and far more developed sequel Bride of Frankenstein.
		Making the Bride of Frankenstein' is hosted by fast-talking director Joe Dante, covering every bit of background on the film from James Whale's reluctance to make a sequel to the development of the make-up, with contributions from author/director Clive Barker, make-up specialist Rick Baker and numerous film historians and experts.

		Although forced, Henry Frankenstein is soon once again obsessed by the thought of creating life from dead tissue, and we get to witness the memorable birth of the bride of Frankenstein.
		The film is almost exploding with these kinds of references that give it depth, but also show very nicely how well Whale understood to combine the macabre with the almost blasphemous humorous without ever becoming persiflage.
		The same is true in many other instances that make "The Bride Of Frankenstein" such an exceptional film.

		Frankenstein is approached by Dr. Pretorious who wants to construct a bride for the monster.
		Equipped with a four star cast with Colin Clive reprising his role as the infamous Baron Frankenstein and Dwight Frye as a shifty henchman named Karl, The Bride of Frankenstein is the horror film of the age.

		Naturally it means the bride made by Frankenstein for the Monster, but it does invite other interpretations.
		Since Frankenstein all but exhausted the terror potential of the scenario, the sequel has more fun with the dialogue and characters, and even takes a few stabs at religious iconography, while also presenting a tight narrative that offers other subtextural readings.
		Given the soft nature of the transfer and the age of the source print, edge enhancement problems are not apparent.
