Product: Gods and Monsters (1998)
Rating: 5.0
Fantastic Underrated film
There is so much to love about this film it's hard to know where to begin. Ian MacKellan is brilliant as the director James Whale; Brandon Fraser is perfect as his "monster", and Lynn Redgrave is wonderful as his long-suffering maid Hanna. The three are the perfect ensemble and compliment each other perfectly.There are so many layers and dimensions to the story. Each time I watch it, I discover more to love about it. I heartily recommend this movie although not everyone will understand the deeper meaning. And it's definitely not for those who are homophobic, but those with an open mind will love it.
