Crazy how much this movie resonates with our current time. Comforting to have 70s nyc movies as a place to channel the anguish of our present historical moment- that’s what led me to turn to them in the past year, and part of what’s made them as a whole one of my fav moments in cinema. 
Watched it at the same time as Clavicular’s virality became mainstream. I notice some similarities between the figures, if not necessarily in purpose, then…

Incredibly disappointing.

So obviously there’s the Netflix look of the movie which gives it a corporate feel i can’t shake (perfect lighting, no interesting camera work, looks like a tv show). Honestly it is very sad because the sets were really cool as were the costumes. It’s a story about the sublime!!! Make it look sublime!!!!!!

Then the actual content. I have no problem with renditions of Frankenstein that are not faithful to the book, in fact, it is one…
