Horror comedy comes to life this episode with the Mel Brooks classic Young Frankenstein. This might be the first movie we’ve covered that almost everyone we’ve ever met has undoubtedly seen! The gags remain evergreen, but this watch through the hosts were primarily impressed by the beautiful filmmaking and imaginative storytelling on display. The writing, cinematography, performances, music, and direction are all the stuffs of geniuses working at the top of their game. The effect is almost symphonic. It was good luck indeed that the movie came along at just the right time when the creatives, as well as film comedy itself, still had a lot to prove. Topics include: A Long Strange Trip, Frankenstein Day, and Elena’s thoughts on Jim Carrey.
