video reflection 3- FRANKENSTEIN



                                                       FRANKENSTEIN


                           








I chose this movie because I truly like it. It is amazing. In the plot a brilliant scientist called Victor tries to create a man. He believes he could do that. With the help of new inventions of that time especially with the help of electricity he believes he to do that. It is overreaching human restrictions. Yet, he manages to create a man. However, that was not actually a man but a living thing that a monster. Victor was very disappointed with his creation so he cannot even look at him and he escapes from attention from environment. Everyone frightens from him and escapes.  Finally, the monster could not tolerate the situation and desires create a woman creature from the scientist. However, due to the monster’s behaviors he did not do that. Therefore, the wrestle between the scientist and monster begins and at the end even the monster kills many of the close people to scientist, Victor did not kill him.

This plot is written by Mary Shelley. She started wrote it in her nineteen and published her work in her twenty one in 1823. The period that she lived in is called Romantic Period. In that period women writers did not start write yet. She was one of the first women writers. At that times writing about gothic stories were so popular because it was the new kind of writing at that times. Then once writers decided to write the best gothic story among themselves. Percy Shelley also was that time’s well known writer and he joined as well the competition. While he was doing that his wife Mary Shelley also began write. Looking at her work her husband supported his wife and she became a writer.

The time was the beginning of human invention period. As a result some people at that time want to go beyond the limitations like creating something alive. Yet, people who wanted do that got what they deserved. I mean overreaching the limitations bring at the end something unpleasant results. They saw what brought their hope or desire.
