Tender Son: The Frankenstein Project

Tender Son The Frankenstein Project Hungarian Szeld teremts A Frankensteinterv is a 2010 Hungarian film written and directed by Kornl Mundrucz, developed from his own theatrical play and loosely based on Mary Shelleys Frankenstein. The film was screened in the main competition at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival, where it was poorly received by critics.

Peter Brunette of The Hollywood Reporter was highly critical of the film One wonders what the grand poobahs at the Cannes Film Festival were thinking when they chose Tender Son The Frankenstein Project, a disastrously bad Hungarian film, for the competition. Its pokey and pretentious, and all character motivations, which are often contradictory if not ridiculously illogical, seem based on the films symbolic needs rather than on reallife psychological desires. In Variety, Boyd van Hoeij was disappointed with how the filmmakers had bypassed the original novels mythological allusions Mundruczo and regular coscripter Yvette Biro Delta, Johanna have completely neutered Shelleys clever notion of a hero sic incompatible with his surroundings by replacing the monster with a fleshandblood human with no backstory, turning him into a supposed equal rather than a misunderstood outcast. Without a clear understanding of his psychology or past How was he treated in the orphanage? How does he feel about his parents absence for most of his life?, his random killing spree seems simply incomprehensible and vile.
