Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein is now haunting the big screen in NYC, and it’s unlike anything you’ve seen before. This fall, the Oscar-winning filmmaker resurrects Mary Shelley’s timeless tale in his long-awaited adaptation. And NYC audiences are getting a rare treat: the chance to see it in 35mm at the historic Paris Theatre.
Screening now through November 6th, the limited run arrives just ahead of the film’s global Netflix debut on November 7. Don’t miss the chance to get an exclusive look at what’s already being hailed as one of del Toro’s most ambitious works.
Only at the Paris Theater in NYC: Frankenstein in 35mm
In Frankenstein, del Toro returns to familiar ground: the collision of beauty and monstrosity, humanity and horror. The director behind Pan’s Labyrinth and The Shape of Water transforms Shelley’s gothic novel into a story about creation, love and grief.
In his 2018 Golden Globes speech, Del Toro described his lifelong love of monsters this way: “I have been saved and absolved by them, because monsters, I believe, are patron saints of our blissful imperfection.” His Frankenstein is an ode to that belief.
Starring Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, and Mia Goth, the film unfolds across candlelit laboratories and rain-soaked ruins. It’s a visually stunning adaptation of Shelley’s classic and NYC fans have an exclusive chance to catch it in 35mm.
