Movie Reviews of The Bride
Movie Review: "The Bride" Is A Warmhearted Departure From The Frankenstein Saga
Summary: 4 Stars
Rock legend Sting ("Dune") gives a superb performance as Baron Charles Frankenstein who brings a beautiful dead woman to life. Instead of allowing her to mate with his male creation, he decides that he must have her for his own. The enraged creature (Clancy Brown) destroys the tower laboratory and flees. What follows is a touching, warm-hearted relationship between him and Rinaldo, a midget (David Rappaport) he rescues from children who are teasing him. The two misfits develop a close friendship and decide to travel to Budapest to join the circus. Rinaldo gives his friend the name of Viktor. Meanwhile, Baron Frankenstein names his female creation Eva (the gorgeous Jennifer Beals of "Flashdance" fame). Refusing to believe she was simply found in the woods, Eva becomes increasing more agitated as she searches for her true identity. Somehow, she shares a psychic bond with Viktor. They can feel each other's pain.
"The Bride" is a beautifully photographed gothic film with lush settings and costumes and a great musical score composed and directed by Maurice Jarre. It deals primarily with the strong bond of everlasting friendship. Also, it emphasizes the timeless theme found in "Beauty and the Beast" - true beauty comes from within. You can be hideously scarred on the outside and still have a beautiful heart. This version of Frankenstein has one of the most happiest endings I have ever seen. Baron Frankenstein, as usual, is greedy and selfish and it was fun to watch him receive his just reward. However, those he has harmed escape his evil clutches and are given a chance to make their dreams come true. "The Bride" is highly recommended for those, like me, who enjoy gothic horror, especially when it has a strong element of romance.
