Outstanding tribute to the "Father of Frankenstein"
Excellent filmaking. This fictional account of a portion of James Whale's life pays tribute to his flair and vision. Bill Condon manages to mimic some Whale's style, always making the viewer feel as they were part of the "inside-joke." (see movie to get meaning)McKellan and Redgrave are phenomenal, and Frazier is able to feed off them enough to keep from looking foolish. The interviews with cast and crew were also highly enjoyable and informative.
