Frankenstein (2025)
di Guglielmo del Toro
Guillermo del Toro has been chasing Frankenstein for more than ten years. He has read it, studied it, imagined it.
This year, that long-pursued vision has finally taken shape: an adaptation that restores the myth to its most intimate, sorrowful, and deeply human dimension.
Del Toro — poet of shadows, archaeologist of wonder, craftsman of impossible bodies —
has reanimated Frankenstein without betraying its emotional core.
He does not choose the path of triumphant horror nor that of gothic spectacle:
he prefers to bring the story back to its philosophical roots,
where the monster is nothing less than the reflection of a human violence that precedes every act of terror.
