ICC"s “Between the Lines” - The Many Faces of Frankenstein

On the 200^th Anniversary of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, we will look at the various versions of Frankenstein in movies. From comedy to horror to action, this story has transcended across genres in a way few other stories have. In their adaptations of the original book, these films make the story come alive in new ways. But, when is an adaptation no longer an adaptation? These movies increasingly often diverge from the original source. Come see how these movies relate to each other and where they do (and do not) relate to the book. This discussion takes part in ICC’s year-long celebration of Frankenstein through the One Book, One College program.
              “Between the Lines” is a lecture series presented by the faculty members of the English, Humanities and Language Studies Department at ICC. The goal of the series is to offer literary presentations that will interest students and people in the community, as well as promote reading literacy and scholarly study.
               The programs are free and open to the public.
