"Frankenstein" had its world premiere at the 2024 Venice International Film Festival and later screened at the Telluride and Toronto International Film Festivals. It received positive reviews for its direction and adaptation by Guillermo del Toro of Mary Shelley's beloved, iconic novel, as well as incredible craftsmanship from all areas of production, and performances from Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, and Mia Goth. Members of the cast and crew were kind enough to spend some time speaking with members of Next Best Picture over the past few weeks, which you can listen to below. First, we have Nadia Dalimonte speaking with del Toro, Isaac, and Elordi. Then, we have Daniel Howat's interview with cinematographer Dan Laustsen, followed by Ema Sasic's interview with Costume Designer Kate Hawley. Then we have Will Mavity's interview with the film's Prosthetics Designer, Mike Hill, followed by Howat's interview with composer Alexandre Desplat, and Sasic's interview with production designer Tamara Deverell. Then we return to Nadiaas she speaks with Mia Goth to close things out. Please be sure to check out the film, now playing in theaters and available to stream on the Netflix platform starting November 7th. The film is up for your consideration for this year's Academy Awards in all eligible categories. Thank you, and enjoy!

A Behind The Scenes Look At "Frankenstein"

05 noviembre 2025 - Campaña de vacunación contra el VPH

Another classic Gothic horror is remade for the modern age: first we saw Robert Eggers' Nosferatu, and now Guillermo del Toro brings us his adaptation of Frankenstein. Like Nosferatu, Frankenstein is astonishing to look at, and, like Nosferatu, also written by its director, it probably would have benefitted from the attention of a professional screenwriter. Still, it's a pleasure to spend time in the word del Toro envisions, and we talk wide angle lenses, the range of performances - Oscar Isaac's busy, Jacob Elordi's brooding, Mia Goth's underwhelming - the difficulty of understanding dialogue in screen two at the Mockingbird, and what this Frankenstein thematically shares with One Battle After Another.

Recorded on 4th November 2025.

Frankenstein - The Four Brothers of the Oscars Race - Ep 507

Sticking closer to Mary Shelley's novel than most other adaptations, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is the culmination of a lifelong dream. His vision echoes the gothic maximalism of Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula, starring Jacob Elordi as a sympathetic interpretation of Frankenstein's Creature. But does this movie measure up to GDT's past hits? Steffan and Gavia have mixed feelings, delving into the film's characterization choices, production values, and relationship with the novel.

Ep. 328: Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein

Heute heißt es Artsy Fartsy - Kunst und Künstlichkeit liegen ja eigentlich nah beieinander und demnach setzen sich Isabella und Tobit zusammen, um über aktuelle Filmchen zu reden, deren Anspruch manchmal jenseits der guten Unterhaltung geht. Netflix hat Guillermo del Toro gewährt, seine Frankenstein-Fantasien umzusetzen, Kelly Reichhardt inszeniert den wohl gemütlichsten Kunstraub aller Zeiten und Jennifer Lawrence ist unglücklich im Wald. Und obendrauf hat Tobit eine zum schaudern schlechte DRACULA-Verfilmung gesehen, während sich Mastermind Isabella ein anspruchsvolles Spielchen überlegt hat.

236: Monster, Mütter und Masterminds

With a commitment to his telling of the story and infectious enthusiasm, Frankenstein is another home run for del Toro.

Episode 1040: Frankenstein

¡Te informamos lo bueno, donde quiera que estés!

A podcast by NextBestPicture.com that reviews the latest film releases and discusses various topics within the world of film and the awards race.

Overinvested is a weekly podcast from pop culture obsessives Gavia Baker-Whitelaw and Morgan Leigh Davies. Each episode, Gavia and Morgan dive into a film, TV show, or comic they just can't stop thinking about.

Are You Movie Mad? Is the podcast that asks the most difficult question one man has ever faced. Cinephile Andrew Jones is perpetually flabbergasted that Johnny Ellis uses the online moniker 'Movie_Mad' yet at any given moment seems not to understand any movie references. Join Andrew as he journeys through a collection of films to educate Johnny and ask if Johnny is Mad about the movie he watched or remains Movie Mad.

MMO is talk radio for movie fans with weekly news shows, reviews, previews, and special guests. We celebrate the Oscars by making awards season year round, without the stuffiness. If you love cinema, if you love showbiz, welcome home.

"I have this romantic idea of the movies as a conjunction of place, people and experiences, all different for each of us, a context in which individual and separate beings try to commune, where the individual experience overlaps with the communal and where that overlapping is demarcated by how we measure the differing responses between ourselves and the rest of the audience: do they laugh when we don’t (and what does that mean?); are they moved when we feel like laughing (and what does that say about me or the others) etc. The idea behind this podcast is to satiate the urge I sometimes have when I see a movie alone – to eavesdrop on what others say. What do they think? How does their experience compare to mine? Snippets are overhead as one leaves the cinema and are often food for thought. A longer snippet of such an experience is what I hope to provide: it’s two friends chatting immediately after a movie. It’s unrehearsed, meandering, slightly convoluted, certainly enthusiastic, and well informed, if not necessarily on all aspects a particular work gives rise to, certainly in terms of knowledge of cinema in general and considerable experience of watching different types of movies and watching movies in different types of ways. It’s not a review. It’s a conversation." - José Arroyo.

"I just like the sound of my own voice." - Michael Glass.
