Young Frankenstein 1974
Mel Brooks‘ brilliant Gothic farce about the legend of Dr Frankenstein, with a humorous spin on it that only Brooks could do! I’m sure Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley is smiling down upon Brooks and Wilder’s adaptation of her iconic contribution to literature, culture and film!
Starring some of THE funniest people in the world, Gene Wilder, Madeline Kahn, Teri Garr, Peter Boyle, Marty Feldman, Chloris Leachman, Kenneth Mars. and Gene Hackman
