Frankenstein (1931) Movie Review
As I continue going through some of the Universal Monster Movies, this classic had to come up…
Frankenstein is a 1931 horror monster film from Universal Pictures directed by James Whale and adapted from the play by Peggy Webling, which in turn is loosely based on the novel of the same name by Mary Shelley.
The film stars Colin Clive, Mae Clarke, John Boles and Boris Karloff and features Dwight Frye and Edward van Sloan.
The Webling play was adapted by John L. Balderston and the screenplay written by Francis Edward Faragoh and Garrett Fort with uncredited contributions from Robert Florey and John Russell.
The make-up artist was Jack Pierce. A huge hit with both audiences and critics, the film was followed by multiple sequels and became one of the most iconic horror films in movie history.

YOO-HOO – -WITH HAL ROACH ALL-STARS! UNIVERSAL – 1932.
I recently came across an old 16mm print of YOO-HOO – a Universal 2 reel comedy from 1932 starring James Gleason. Besides Gleason, everyone else connected with the production seems to be from the Hal Roach Studios. The cast includes Bobby “Wheezer” Hutchins, Anita Garvin, Billy Gilbert, Fred Kelsey and Frank Austin. Behind the camera too are a number of Roach luminaries: Direction by James W. Horne, story by J.A. Howe and George Stevens. It was even photographed by Len Powers.
This seems like a very deliberate attempt by Universal to bolster the quality of their shorts by this wholesale hiring of Roach cultivated talent. From what I can tell by checking out IMDB, this arrangement didn’t last long. I contacted Richard W. Bann, film historian and Hal Roach Studios expert about all of this Roach talent turning up at Universal and he gave me an explanation of why this happened. It turned out that long tenured exec at Hal Roach Studios, Warren Doane, had left and was setting up shop making shorts at Universal at a time when lot of HRS talent was becoming available owing to an economy drive at the instigation of the cost-cutting studio manager, Henry Ginsberg, newly installed at HRS to watch the money there. Ginsberg felt that to save the studio money, talent like this was expendable! Well, that’s show biz.
This is a very cute film. Not quite in the vein of a Hal Roach comedy, but with many nice and familiar touches nonetheless. Well worth 20 minutes of your time. Enjoy!
A word about this print: This 16mm copy of this film I have was printed in 1944 and is starting to deteriorate. It is infected with something known as “vinegar syndrome.” I have stabilized the print a bit by cleaning it with a film preservation and cleaning solution called Vitafilm and it is now carefully stored, but someday my 16mm copy might be rendered unwatchable. Only time will tell. This film also had its share of damaged sprockets which I have repaired the best I could. The film runs fine and only jumps a bit 3 time or so during the course of its 20 minutes running time.
