ON SCREEN: Frankenstein by Nick Dear, based on the novel by Mary Shelley

Presented by Third Rail Repertory Theatre

2011. Directed by Danny Boyle. Runtime: 2hr 11min. 

Childlike in his innocence but grotesque in form, Frankenstein’s bewildered creature is cast out into a hostile universe by his horror-struck maker. Meeting with cruelty wherever he goes, the increasingly desperate and vengeful Creature determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal.

Scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the nature of good and evil, are embedded within this thrilling and deeply disturbing classic tale.
