something about how informal blogs sometimes work like diaries but better because you don't get as overexcited and stressed about starting a whole new thick book you have to fill up nicely. instead it's just you and your friends and you're all in this infinite world together and it's never empty and never full and you can add whatever you'd like to it

hey here's me putting out my liveblogs on guillermo del toro's frankenstein because obviously i like yapping into the void. but it's also nice if the void yaps back so feel free to reply. whether you agree, disagree, or are adding on i'd love that tbh
anyway, here we go:
mmmmm the shaded out face so we don't get to see the "monster"'s face …
starting off strong with some quotable lines already
-CHILD-
OHHHHH THE COLORS. RED FOR THE MOTHER … EVERYTHING ELSE IN MUTED GRAYISH TONES … GOD THIS IS GORGEOUS ALREADY
the father in black. hm
veiled face of mother
victor in white … prayer … mother in white now
generational trauma baby
"no emotion in a muscle" GOD
i adore that half-shadowed lighting with the whip to the face
the bloodied handprint on victor's white sleeve, on the side of his face, goddddddd
the red scarf around victory's neck at the funeral for claire (mother)
mostly black clothing after death of mother, with the red scarf reappearing
"no one can conquer death."
always the little bits of red over their white/black
white in sleep and praying to the angel
-ADULT-
"but if we are to act as immodest as gods, we must deliver miracles" or something whatever
not to be that one guy but how is the "monster" not affected by hypothermia already
… the red puddles on the floor that victor jumps over?
"clutching your new pet so tightly you are strangling it"
drinking so much milk ?? turns out this is symbolism i am unaware of, look back at this
lady elizabeth harlander, face turned away, dressed in aqua blue, holding a skull (reminiscent of hamlet, which i have neither read nor attended in performance but have read about to some degree) -> in hamlet, message: life is fleeting, death is inevitable
even as an adult the color scheme!! rahhhhh
"not this war, the war before that (…) i cannot remember" oUGH. i don't know man. violence and conflict
god that GORGEOUS AQUA BLUE FOR LADY ELIZABETH HARLANDER
those scenes with the picking good bodies from dead soldiers(?) and the criminals off to be hanged … made me think
oh elizabeth red all of a sudden coming into the workshop of victor
"god's design" and stuff from elizabeth all the time grahhhhh
"believing something does not make it true" - elizabeth harlander godddd
is the trapped butterfly, a prisoner between victor and elizabeth, some sort of symbolism?
choice is the one gift god gave, something like that, godddddd -> quote from elizabeth: choice is the one gift god grants us
henrich harlander <- i keep forgetting his first name help
"our new adam" - henrich harlander
"i want to be placed in this new body" oh to cheat death, sighs
herr herlander falling and dying, but victor continuing on anyway because there is no stopping now. despite the violence, or maybe because of the violence and death—without it, after all, henrich would have remained a threat to his work.
"the sun is life" some sort of significance?
something about the color of elizabeth's gown being like the beetles she adores - weirdo
how victor treats the creature like a child in words but then keeps the creature imprisoned, held in the darkness, away from the sunlight victor once claimed was life itself.
"did not consider what would come after creation" yeah no duh
do the candles hold some sort of significance? the hesitance before the last flame blown out?
to treat a mistake with anger … lashing out … god this hurts me (parent/child relationships or generally caretaker figure/learning figure just GETS ME)
fear, recoiling from the creature … hhhgghghhjfjfhhhghh
will elizabeth be a taste of kindness? or simply a sampler of the outside world? or something else altogether?
a sweet gentleness …
victor: "it doesn't know any better."
elizabeth: "but you do."
"victor, did you ever wonder, of all the parts that make that man, which one holds the soul?"
"no, i didn't."
"perhaps, for the time being, that word means everything to him."
"in those eyes i saw pain, and what is pain if not evidence of intelligence?"
"only monsters play god, baron."
what is WRONG with you, victor. henrich died of fall damage bro ghkdlfjs (future note: hey i swear i come back to this topic with more insight later)
organs a facsimile of their original function, if now the resources are not all needed, air, oxygen, temperature, internal environment
like a lost child calling out for help
"in seeking life, i created death."
-PART 2-
in being so desperate for life even the potential of harm to the self does not deter from the actions toward escape, slamming cuffs against walls with scarred wrists and forearms
oh to experience the wonders of the world for the first time
but it never lasts long enough, always to be rejected, hunted, harmed, to be cursed to never exist without violence and pain
dehumanization
seeing others speak of you from an outside perspective
anne-maria and the blind man are PEAK i love them
"the hunter did not hate the wolf. the wolf did not hate the sheep. but violence felt inevitable between them. perhaps, i thought, this was the way of the world."
^^ dude the way i accidentally addressed this in "hate parades"
"i understood that i was nothing. a wretch. a blot. not even of the same nature as man. this hurt clung to my mind. it never let go."
"i am the child of a charnel house."
dudeeeee lying down on the snow like that must be soooo comfy i remember that feeling
angel takes off the mask to reveal a skull with an inhuman screech … meaning? meaning evil influence disguised as good? something else?
now that i think about it, victor saying (to william, i believe?) that henrich harlander's death was the fault of the creature … perhaps he really does believe it. after all, their quarrel was about the birth of the creature. how hesitant he is to take blame for anything, it seems
"i know it is bad luck to see the bride before the wedding"
"only for the groom"
"yes, that's right. not for me"
hELLO??????
does the shot of victor talking to elizabeth pre-wedding mean anything? we only see his back and then his reflection in the mirror …
the lace wrapped around elizabeth's arms for the wedding is so cool to me idk it reminds me of the spine dress with lace along the back that mimics the look of a human spine
projecting much, victor? you want a wife SO BAD DON'T YOU
victor refusing to acknowledge the humanity of the creature
"obscenity perpetuating itself."
"i am obscene to you, but to myself i simply am."
now talking with the creature ANOTHER MIRROR SHOT:
on the left is victor, back to the audience. we only see him front-facing in the middle as a reflection.
"the miracle is not that i should speak, but that you should listen"
"if you are not to award me love, then i will indulge in rage."
GOD VICTOR STOP SHOOTING PEOPLE. IT'S LITERALLY NOT GOING TO WORK. ARE YOU STUPID
always love me some images of red staining white <3
"to be lost and to be found, that is the lifespan of love. and in its brevity, its tragedy … this has been made eternal." - elizabeth harlander
"you may be my creator, but from this day forward, i will be your master."
"you hunted me past the forests, past the mountains, past frozen horizons, until there was nothing left. just you … and me" INSP WHGEJDFKSL
"you only listen when i hurt you."
"my incessant heart" resentment for life. as said before, life was not the creature's choice. oh god elizabeth's quote about choice being the only gift god grants us …
"forgive me, my son. and if you have it in your heart, forgive yourself into existence. if death is not to be, then consider this, my son. while you are alive, what recourse do you have but to live?"
"say my name. my father gave me that name, and it meant nothing. now i ask you to give it back to me … one last time. the way you said it at the beginning. when it meant the world to you."
