So, 'Memories of Frankenstein' is quite a unique documentary, you know? It dives into this little-known production from 1966 that Jerome Hill orchestrated at his outdoor theater by the Mediterranean. It’s got this intimate vibe, and there's a palpable sense of place, with musicians like the Julliard Quartet enhancing the atmosphere. The film captures the essence of the Living Theatre's approach to 'Frankenstein', which I find intriguing. The pacing leans more towards contemplative rather than action-driven, allowing the themes of creation and existential dread to breathe. The practical effects and performances feel raw and visceral, giving you a glimpse into a time when theater was about pushing boundaries. It definitely stands out in the sea of Frankenstein adaptations.
