God created human Adam and fulfilled his obligation as the creator. He made a companion Eve for Adam and arranged them to live happily and happily in the Garden of Eden. And scientists, like a creator like God, created Frankenstein. He has no companions and is locked in a dark and damp dungeon, threatened by torches.

The monster was burned to death, and the scientist who was responsible for it had a happy marriage. He was not responsible for it, and his values ​​did not agree with him. He did not come into this world for long, as if he had a baby-like cognition. Since there is no standard of right or wrong, he killed the hunched man because the man threatened him with fire and intimidated him; the professor strangled him to avoid being dissected out of self-defense. ; Killing the little girl was just playing with her. He didn’t know that the little girl could not float on the water like a flower; approaching the heroine was just out of jealousy.

He is not human, but he expects gain, safety, friendship and love. He killed people, and he was a monster, it seemed that his death was justified. If I stand from his perspective, I personally feel that I will feel sympathy.

    It looks better than expected, and you can see many bridge designs imitated by later generations, and the photography also has an aftertaste of expressionism. What is even more commendable is that he did not make the weirdo inhuman, and he also tried to make his image a little fuller. We must praise the director's advanced taste.

    Although the direct legacy of German expressionism lacks the exaggeration and surrealism of the former set, it still inherits the characteristics of most genres (lighting, close-ups and exaggerated performances). In fact, the play has benefited from Greek mythology, but the presentation of tragic scenes actually criticizes the arrogance of human beings to gods (the desire for creation), so it is essentially a modern retelling of myths. But the strange thing is that his attitude towards Frankenstein was ambiguous and ambiguous, so he survived at the end and became a witness of sin, but he really had no intention of repentance. This discussion of creation and identity will continue until the appearance of "Alien", and it is even mentioned in more recent science fiction movies.
