p:abstract
  • Frankenstein: The True Story is a 1973 British made-for-television horror film based on the book Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. It was directed by Jack Smight, and the screenplay was co-written by novelist Christopher Isherwood. The film starred Leonard Whiting as Victor Frankenstein, Jane Seymour as Prima, David McCallum as Henry Clerval, James Mason as Dr Polidori and Michael Sarrazin as the Creature. The character of Dr Polidori, who did not appear in the original novel, was based on the real-life John Polidori, an acquaintance of author Mary Shelley who was part of the competition that produced her novel. Polidori's own contribution was the first modern vampire story.A notable feature of the production is that the Creature is portrayed as physically handsome, but diseased, and therefore increasingly ugly as the film goes on. The make-up was by Hammer horror veteran artist Roy Ashton.It was originally broadcast in two 90-minute parts, but is often seen edited into a single film. Its DVD debut date was September 26, 2006.

  • Frankenstein: The True Story er en amerikansk TV-film fra 1973 basert på romanen Frankenstein av Mary Shelley og regissert av Jack Smight. Tittelen kan kanskje indikere at denne filmen skulle vært den mest historietro versjonen av Mary Shelleys bok, men det er den ikke. Denne filmen er en mer psykologisk fortelling og har et helt annet type monster enn romanen fremstiller. (no)
