Book: Young Frankenstein: The Story of the Making of the Film by Mel Brooks
Young Frankenstein was made with deep respect for the craft and history of cinema-and for the power of a good schwanzstucker joke. This picture-driven book, written by one of the greatest comedy geniuses of all time, takes readers inside the classic film’s marvelous creation story via never-before-seen black and white and color photography from the set and contemporary interviews with the cast and crew, most notably, legendary writer-director Mel Brooks.
Film: Young Frankenstein (1974) Dir. Mel Brooks
An American grandson of the infamous scientist, struggling to prove that his grandfather was not as insane as people believe, is invited to Transylvania, where he discovers the process that reanimates a dead body.
Private screening and discussion will take place at Sidewalk Cinema October 29th at 7:00pm.
