Young Frankenstein

He does the work he swore off, and the film is glad he broke the promise.

The review

A lecturer hates his grandfather's reputation right up until the castle is his. Then he builds the creature anyway. The comedy loves the old horror films instead of mocking them empty. There is a blind hermit. The creature wants a life. That affection is why it still plays for people who know where the jokes came from.

The vow gets a shrug. The work he said he would not repeat is the fun, and the fun never sends him a bill. Fine with friends who already like that joke. No help if you wanted the promise to matter. He did the grandfather's job. The movie is pleased with him.

Keep Young Frankenstein in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 41. Yours can differ.

The glance

Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth are the thin ones.

Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

A Christmas Story

53 instead of 41

A Christmas Story is still a comedy film, and it scores 53 instead of 41. What you gain is household: Parents, a brother, a want.

The eight

7
Industry
A lecturer leaves the classroom and does his grandfather's laboratory work.
5
Household
The creature wants a life, not only the scream the old films used him for.
3
Piety
He swore he would not repeat the work, and he does it anyway.
4
Courage
Taking the castle is nerve spent on the exact vow he had already made.
2
Republic
No town is owed a thing; the castle is a private repeat of the old work.
4
Temperance
The laughs take his side, so doing the forbidden work is the pleasure.
3
Truth
The promise not to repeat the grandfather's work does not hold, and he is not billed.
5

Buddy

41Leave it.

Forced cheer is a cage. The child who says no is the one the show cannot bear.

The review

Inside a 1990s children's program, an orange unicorn leads the songs. A boy will not join the dance. He vanishes, and the host tells the others he has gone to a perfect city. Another child finds what he left, and it is not a postcard. The public story stops at the crack: the cheer was the lock, and the no was the thing the lock could not allow.

Do not put this in front of a child who still loves a show like it. The measure is for the adult who presses play. A smile that punishes the child who will not wear it is not friendship. It is a host.
