A lavish and literate adaptation of the classic novel, reimagined as empathetic and emotion-forward by one today’s singular artists, Guillermo del Toro’s FRANKENSTEIN (2025) was honored with an AFI AWARD, recognizing it as one of the year’s most outstanfing achievements in the art of the moving image. According to the official rationale, “FRANKENSTEIN electrifies Mary Shelley’s classic novel with a bolt of fragile beauty. Guillermo del Toro’s creation is a monument to the art of cinema – celebrating all that came before while looking to the future with a beating heart. Among the gifts of a brilliant all-star cast including Oscar Isaac and Mia Goth, Jacob Elordi stands tall in this tale of monsters and men, fathers and sons and, ultimately, the power of forgiveness.”
