"Definitely not a sweet fairy-tale for children. This is for adults with a glass of something strong in hand and a free evening."

Movie Favorite

"Sturges’s improbable, implausible, yet completely believable fairy tale about Hollywood, about filmmaking, in all of its nonsense and its life-changing glory. Sturges digs deep into farce, but on the way finds something deeply thoughtful and moving. It’s the film I turn to whenever I think my career is devoid of meaning. Joel McCrea transcends himself, and Veronica Lake was never better."

A real-life twist on an old familiar fairy tale. It took me a little bit to get into this story, mainly because the tone was a bit stiff and formal. But once I did get into it, I fell in love. I enjoyed this story so much and I can't wait to read the rest of the Modern Fairytale series!

Movie Favorite Watch

"Bride of Frankenstein is absolutely perfect. It has the innocence and beauty of a fairy tale, but has the darkness of a gothic horror tale. So the combination is irresistible. [On hearing that Hellboy comics creator Mike Mignola also named Bride of Frankenstein among his favorite films, del Toro said with a smile, “Well, we are alike in some aspects.”]"
