Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMark Ruffalo had a lot of doubts about his performance during the shoot. He often half-joked that his friend Oscar Isaac, who was filming on a nearby sound stage, was going to be called in to replace him. One day, Willem Dafoe pranked Ruffalo by taking him to a room where Isaac (who was in on the joke) was waiting. Isaac and Dafoe informed Ruffalo he was fired and, indeed, getting replaced by Isaac.
- GoofsWhen Bella returns to London to visit the dying Godwin; she gets off the carriage and closes the door with her empty right hand. However in the next immediate cut when the carriage drives away, she is now holding her luggage with the right hand. In addition in the preceding black and white scene, she is holding the bag with her left hand.
- Quotes
Bella Baxter: [on the wailing infant] I must go punch that baby.
- Alternate versionsUK version was cut in one sex scene to secure an "18" rating. The cut(s) were made to this scene because it was in the presence of children within in the movie. Under UK law, this could be illegal and therefore required removal before being shown at cinemas or distributed within the country.

Featured review
Terry Gilliam and Walerian Borowczyk remake Bride of Frankenstein
Visually wonderful, fabulous feminist ( though I'd say humanist ) fairy tale ... I haven't read the book but the film is really well written ... The acting is spot on all round ... The people who think that this is just a sex film are obviously American ( why are those people so anti sex, but fine with violence ? ) the sex, of which there is not a huge amount, is never graphic and is often quite funny, there isn't anything erotic about it, its just an important part of the main characters development ... Its funny and thought prevoking which is a rare thing of beauty in these days of mediocrity in the arts in general ... Adventurous cinema for those with brains that haven't fully shut down and accepted mediocrity as the norm that is best for all of us ... They are SO SO WRONG.
