About Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
Victor Frankenstein is a promising young doctor who, devastated by the death of his mother during childbirth, becomes obsessed with bringing the dead back to life. His experiments lead to the creation of a monster, which Frankenstein has put together with the remains of corpses. It's not long before Frankenstein regrets his actions.
Directed by Kenneth Branagh, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein leans on a strong ensemble — Robert De Niro, Kenneth Branagh, Tom Hulce — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1994.
