Young Frankenstein directed by Mel Brooks (US 1974) Filming in glorious black and white, Brooks parody re-created the Frankenstein laboratory using the same equipment from the original Frankenstein. The story, of course, involves Frederick Frankenstein (Gene Wilder) and his effort to resume experiments in re-animation pioneered by his late father. From a career that includes some of the best comedies ever made, this is the film for which Mel Brooks will be most fondly remembered. (102 minutes)
The underground film series is sponsored by Indiana University's Department of Communication and Culture. All screenings are on alternating Fridays at 7 p.m. in room 251 of the Radio-TV building on the IU campus. All screenings are free and open to the public, and free parking is ample in the lot adjacent to the building, provided you clearly display an underground flyer on the dashboard of your vehicle.
