Robert Ebert’s review on the Bride of Frankenstein spoke about the feminine actions and homosexuality that Frankenstein showed. From his review, I thought about the possible different ideas or thoughts of James Whale. In analyzing, I would speak on the homosexuality. Is Whales trying to prove a point? Even if the monster was a homosexual, what is the difference? Homosexual or not, people and or monsters have feelings too. We all think, feel, touch, etc. Some of us may be unattractive and some attractive, and still need that emotional bond somewhere. Maybe Whale wanted the monster to represent humans or those who are not accepted in society. To go further with Ebert’s review, during the time of homosexuality, maybe something or someone felt accepted, or comfortable enough to reveal their selves. Society puts a trap on things that are not accepted, by own personal opinion, and attack the opposed. Even with just being an abnormal, a monster, this added on to the opposition of something or someone who just wanted to be heard, felt, and accepted.

From Gary Morris point of view, he talked about just the overall encounter with the rest of the characters, which were mainly men. There were a few characters that understood the monster, and understood his desires. They maybe represented the few people who would take the time to accept the unknown. Or, like the blind man, those who feel the same feelings will accept those who understand completely, no matter what one looks like or acts like. Some people are desperate to accept and appreciate the unordinary things.

New York Times revealed the transformation of the monster from his meanness to kindness. He found someone who not only accepted him, but took him in, fed him and gave him drink, and taught him some things. At this point, Frankenstein felt at home. He laughed and clapped and felt apart of the human society. New York Times added another spend to the acceptance idea of Frankenstein. So not only is the monster possibly accepted with homosexuality, in a sense or some sense, and accepted by a few good men who taught him some ordinary things, but he is also more kind and comfortable with being himself. Then his friends were taken away and the only thing in the world he wanted did not want him. So he gave up and became a mean monster again. I truly believe that Frankenstein represents human society that is trapped. He could represent someone struggling internally and fighting to except himself. Society has closed him in by attacking his being every time he is shown and every time he gets to show his feelings. When we as humans feel this way, we shut down with either depression or anger. So Frankenstein got angry and even.
