Young Frankenstein (1974) Review
Young Frankenstein is one of the great American comedies and the highest achievement in Mel Brooks's filmography. Mel Brooks directed and cowrote the screenplay with Gene Wilder.
Marty Feldman had severely protruding eyes from a thyroid condition and Graves’ disease, which he used as the basis of an entire comic persona. Young Frankenstein gives him Igor, whose hump moves between shots as a running joke he devised himself. He was a successful comedy writer in Britain before performing, and died at forty-eight.
