Movies and films are created for the entertainment of the viewer, and have almost always been an over dramatized, if not, a completely different adaptation the novels or literature that they portray. This fact is clearly proven when comparing the movie clips from “The Creature” to the Frankenstein novel by Shelly. In the movie clip when Victor Frankenstein brings the creature to life, he is overwhelmed with excitement, happiness, and a feeling of great success. Meanwhile, in the novel, Frankenstein gets hit with a sudden feeling of regret as he stares at what he created and sees nothing but a monster.  You notice in the novel the author doesn’t focus much on the creation of the “The creature”. Shelly however focuses on the attitude and mentality of Frankenstein and how he develops his feelings starting from coming up with the idea of bringing life to a human body, then building up to the creation itself and how he becomes possessed with the feeling of sadness and regret. The movie focuses on “The Creature” and builds you up to the moment of creation. As the viewer you become excited to see what the creation will look like and how it would react to coming back to life. The movie in this case turns a moment of sadness and disappointment into a moment of success and celebration.
