#454 - Young Frankenstein - WatchThis W/RickRamos

A Mary Shelley Dick Joke: Mel Brooks's  Young Frankenstein There's absolutely no caption, intro, blurb, or description that can capture the magic and brilliance of Mel Brooks's masterpiece (arguably one of three), Young Frankenstein (1974). From a script by Brooks and star, Gene Wilder, two comic geniuses salute, honor, and show great love for the Classic Universal Horror films of the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. With a brilliant supporting cast (possibly the greatest ever committed to film) including Marty Feldman, Cloris Leachman, Teri Garr, Kenneth Mars, Peter Boyle, Gene Hackman, and Madeline Khan, Brooks and Wilder's continuation of James Wales's Frankenstein (1931) and The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) faithfully recreates the Frankenstein World Cinema has come to know and love. Take a listen as Mr. Chavez & I shine a light on this incredibly loving and - often times - hilarious film.   If you've listened to us over the years, or if you're new to the podcast, and you'd like to support us you can click on the link below and donate to this long-running labor of love.
