The Bride Of Frankenstein (1935)

The more we look back on early Hollywood, the more certain we are in declaring that MOVIES ARE GAY. Movies Are Gay not just in June but 24 seven, 352 days a year. Cultural repression of adult sexuality is a terrible thing but sometimes we can look back with modernity on our side and realize what many likely missed when they first watched Boris Karloff and Elsa Lanchester in James Wale’s 1935 sequel “Bride of Frankenstein”. What they might have missed was that this movie is very very gay and also very very fun. From the baddie bey, Doctor Septimus Pretorius to The Bride who rejects her arranged union, this movie has a lot of subtext. At least that’s what we projected onto it. Shout out to Minnie, the goofball baddie and Valerie Hobson, the 28 year old 17 year old. We belong dead.
