Frankenstein movie screening

Hello readers !

Welcome to my world. Here in this blog I am sharing my viewpoint on Mary Shelly's Frankenstein and the movie Frankenstein by Kenneth Branagh. Mary Shelly's work we find that the real representation of her life. As thinking activity i am giving my viewpoints.

•  task :

1) what is the difference between novel and the movie ?

If we read the novel Frankenstein then and then we find the difference between novel and movie. So the essential part is to read a novel. If we look for major difference  then we can say that in novel Shelly don't introduce lady Monster. But in the movie Kenneth Branagh introduce lady Monster as a character. Otherwise the movie is faithful to the novel. So here we can say that the perspective of Kenneth Branagh is different from Mary Shelly. That's why he introduced new character.

2) Does the movie help you to understand narrative structure of the novel ?

Yes , definitely the movie helpful for us to understand the narrative structure of the novel. 

" Images speak louder than words".

Visual media always better for understanding the exact words and things. So the movie through we clarify the narrative structure that is used by Mary Shelly. How narrative changed with particular scene and situation. 

3) Do you think the movie is helpful to understand the viewpoints of different characters ?

Yes, when we see the movie is helpful to understand the viewpoints of different characters. When we read the book at that time we imagine the character and his thoughts. But in the movie we listen to the voice of character and his style and all the things. So the movie is helpful to us. How they think and how they react on other things that we find in the movie.

4) What do you think about the creation if lady monster in the novel and Elizabeth' s look of a Monster in the movie ?

In the novel we see that monster wants to a partner. With whom he spent his time. And he forced  Victor Frankenstein to make a Lady Monster. What is the importance of Lady Monster in novel. Because of Monster's misdeed Victor destroyed Lady Monster. When Monster killed Elizabeth after that  Victor try to alive Elizabeth and go through the process of Monster. Elizabeth's look is similar to the Monster. Here we can say that now time Victor don't feel fear from her. He makes monster for his loved ones that's why his perspective is change towards his second creation.

5) Think about victor's acceptance of Elizabeth and rejection of the Monster ?

Victor Frankenstein is the protagonist and narrator of the main portion of the story. He was studying in Ingolstadt. He was made a Monster. But he doesn't like his creation. He made eight foot tall, hideously ugly. Victor reject his creation. But we think for lady monster then his perspective is different. Elizabeth is beloved of him, may be that's why he likes Elizabeth's monster. He made a monster that is an experiment for him and he was not attached with him that's why he rejects the monster. And Elizabeth is the beloved of him and without her he not live life. That's why he accepted the Elizabeth.

6) Do you think the director is faithful to the Novel ?

The movie Frankenstein is directed by Kenneth Branagh. All over the novel Frankenstein is covered by him. Wec say that at some point director is faithful to novel, But we can not say that director truly faithful to novel. For example, in the novel we can not see the character of lady monster, but Kenneth Branagh came with the character.
