Altough I have not seen all of Robert Deniro’s full version of Frankenstein I could easily tell from the couple clips we watched it looks quite different. I am a film major and I know what decisions are probably involved in changing some of the scenes for visual effects. Sometimes things on a page will not read as well when they are presented on screen. In this short paper I will concentrate on why they may have changed certain details for the screen.
First of all, the laboratory scene. In the book we never really see or hear of a lab like the one in the movie. Although this is not how Mary Shelly wants us to think of the creation of Frankenstein it is very visually moving. With respect to whether the movie improved on this scene I would say yes. I know it is a bold statement but the visuals of the lab and Frankenstein being created is very entertaining. I think that if they tried to do it exactly like Mary Shelly did in the book it wouldn’t have been as visually stimulating.......
