00:15We now present George Edwards in Frankenstein.
00:19We now present George Edwards in Frankenstein.
00:57You look rather worried today, Captain Walton.
01:01Unfortunately, the weather shows no signs of abating, Baron Frankenstein.
01:05Have any of your men seen any trace of the monster?
01:08Has he attempted to visit the ship again?
01:10No one has seen any trace of it.
01:13Let us hope it has perished out there in the blizzard.
01:16I hope so, but I very much doubt it.
01:19Do you feel inclined to tell me some more of your story?
01:23Well, I have told you how the child, William, was murdered.
01:26And on examining the body, I formed a conclusion that the murder had been committed by the monster.
01:33I dashed back into the room where my wife and the burgomaster were waiting with Justine.
01:38And I told them that I was in reality responsible for the murder of William.
01:44They looked at me in some amazement.
01:48Victor, what are you saying?
01:50It is true, Elizabeth.
01:51The monster killed William, and I created the monster.
01:55She has done this for revenge because I refused to grant his request.
01:59Do you not agree with me that Justine was guilty of the murder?
02:02I swear that I am not guilty.
02:05You can release Justine.
02:07She is innocent.
02:09Burgermaster, did I not set you and your men to search for the monster?
02:12The monster which you say you created.
02:16A unlikely story, Baron Frankenstein.
02:19Understand, Burgermaster, that people do not doubt my word.
02:23I say that Justine is not guilty of this murder.
02:26Take your men.
02:27Go and search for this monster.
02:29Then you will find the murderer.
02:30Had you examined the body closely, you would have seen the marks on the throat.
02:35I am sorry if I have given you a vent, Baron Frankenstein.
02:39I was merely trying to do my duty.
02:42I appreciate that.
02:43Will you go now?
02:45Seek until you find this monster.
02:47Have no mercy.
02:49Shoot him on sight.
02:50We will do that.
02:51But of a truth, I have never seen the creature.
02:55Is it true that he is your creation?
03:00That you've made him in a laboratory at the back of this house?
03:04It is true.
03:06Now go and do not question me further.
03:08Find him and kill him.
03:10Come, you men.
03:11There is much work to be done tonight.
03:13We will take our lead, Baron Frankenstein.
03:17Baron Frankenstein, I go to my knees and thank you for saving my life.
03:21I thank you for making them release me.
03:24All right, Justine.
03:25Now go.
03:26Yes.
03:27I wish to speak to the Baron and I do not wish to be disturbed.
03:30I will go.
03:31And believe me, I will sincerely mourn the child.
03:37What have you to say to me, Elizabeth?
03:41You are a murderer, Victor.
03:44You were right when you said you were responsible for William's death.
03:48It was through your own obstinacy, your head's strong stubbornness, that the monster was brought into being.
03:55Ernst and I pleaded with you.
03:57We begged you not to proceed with this experiment.
03:59But you turned a deaf ear to our pleas.
04:03And as a result, Julio and William have been murdered.
04:06The murder is yours.
04:08And it will forever be upon your conscience.
04:11Oh, Elizabeth, please do not turn against me.
04:14Had you heeded me, had you really loved me, you would not have proceeded with your experiment.
04:20You would have married me and destroyed the form which you had made.
04:24But you were selfish.
04:26You wished to win them.
04:28And what is the result?
04:30I think I hate you, Victor.
04:34Oh, Elizabeth, you do not mean that.
04:36Oh, that child's body lies in this house, mutely crying for revenge.
04:41And yet you stand here and try to justify yourself.
04:46What can I say to you, Elizabeth?
04:49Are you going to let that monster live?
04:52Are you going to let it roam the countryside, leaving a trail of death and misery?
04:58Why are you not out searching for it?
05:01Why do you not destroy this evil thing?
05:04Very well, Elizabeth.
05:06I admit that I cannot justify myself.
05:09I will go now.
05:11And I shall not return until I have slain the monster.
05:15No, Victor.
05:16I do not mean what I said.
05:18If you go out there, the monster may kill you.
05:22You have shown me my duty very plainly, Elizabeth.
05:26I will go and I trust that I will return.
05:28You must not go, Victor.
05:30The shock and the grief caused me to sleep like that.
05:34I cannot catch you.
05:35I love you and I want you to stay here.
05:37If it is because of my love for you, I want to repair the great sin which I have committed.
05:42You cannot go.
05:43Remember, Ernest Carval is coming tomorrow.
05:45Tell him what has happened and do not fear for me.
05:49Goodbye.
05:51Did you succeed in finding the monster, Baron Frankenstein?
05:54Well, I wandered out into the night.
05:56I walked through the woods.
05:58I traveled for miles until I was foot sore and weary.
06:02But still I saw no trace of the being which I had created.
06:07And then, just as dawn was breaking, I came to a little clearing at the side of the woods.
06:14I looked around furiously.
06:16And then, eventually, I heard a woman sobbing.
06:20I hurried in the direction of the sound.
06:23And as I came through the woods, I saw a peasant's cottage.
06:29Outside the cottage, a woman was kneeling beside the body of a man.
06:35She was weeping, bitterly.
06:37I approached her.
06:44What is the matter?
06:47Can I do anything to help you?
06:49Who are you?
06:50Where have you come from?
06:51My name is Baron Frankenstein.
06:53What is the matter with this man?
06:56Oh, he is dead.
06:57He has been murdered.
06:59Let me see.
07:00He's dead.
07:01Oh, he's dead.
07:03The same marks on the throat.
07:06This man was my husband.
07:08We lived here happily together for many years.
07:11And one day, a strange creature came into the woods.
07:15He seemed to be half man, half beast.
07:18Always crying throughout indoors.
07:21Following my husband, then he went to his work in the woods.
07:24Today, my husband took his gun.
07:27He shot at the creature, and the bullet struck him.
07:30But it had no effect.
07:32The creature advanced.
07:34He teased my husband by the sword.
07:36I was powerless to interfere.
07:38And in a few minutes, Broussard was dead.
07:42Then the creature ran into the woods, saying that all men were his enemies.
07:48Leaving a trail of death and misery.
07:52Will you help me, sir?
07:53What can I do?
07:54I am so afraid.
07:56We will take your husband's body into the house.
07:58I will return to town, and you shall come with me.
08:01It is not safe for you here.
08:02What is this strange creature?
08:04Where did he come from?
08:05He terrifies me.
08:07Will help me to carry your husband's body down gently now.
08:10Bring it in here.
08:17We shall lay it on the couch.
08:19What can I do?
08:20Oh, Gustave, Gustave, my husband.
08:23Take comfort.
08:25Although there is little I can say.
08:27Oh, listen.
08:31The monster approached.
08:32Oh, we are not safe.
08:34We shall be killed.
08:39Greetings, Frankenstein.
08:41I thought that you would follow me.
08:44I have followed you so that I may kill you.
08:47This time I have a gun.
08:48You cannot kill me.
08:51We shall see.
08:52Hooray!
08:54I am wounded, Frankenstein, but I will not die.
08:59You are the second man who has tried to kill me today.
09:02The second man who has wounded me.
09:04Who has taught me the meaning of physical pain.
09:07Let this woman be gone.
09:09We have much to say to each other.
09:11Where will you go?
09:12This creature is a devil.
09:14He cannot die.
09:17Poor woman.
09:19Why did you kill her husband?
09:21Because he was my enemy.
09:23All men are my enemies.
09:25And I take that gun from you, Frankenstein.
09:29You devil.
09:29You are so strong.
09:31Now we can talk.
09:34This woman will not return.
09:37She will run to the town for aid.
09:40I am the most wretched being on this earth.
09:43You are my creator, Frankenstein.
09:46And yet you despise and spurn me.
09:49You gave me life.
09:50A life that is filled with misery and wretchedness.
09:53You gave me this hideous form which turns all men against me.
09:57Why do you expect me to love all men?
10:01Why did you kill the child?
10:04Why did you kill this poor peasant?
10:06Because he strove to kill me.
10:09Have I not the right to defend myself?
10:11Why do men strive to kill me?
10:13Why do they shudder when I appear?
10:16Is that not your fault, Frankenstein?
10:20Have I not suffered enough?
10:22Do you not think I have been punished?
10:24Everywhere I go, I seek bliss and happiness.
10:27But I am excluded because I am a hideous monster.
10:31Misery made me a fiend.
10:33But it is in your power to make me happy.
10:37Then there will be no further death.
10:39No further misery.
10:42When first you brought me to life.
10:45I was a poor, helpless, miserable wretch.
10:49I knew and could distinguish nothing.
10:51But I could feel pain.
10:53And I spent my days in weeping and misery.
10:57I will remember one day when I was oppressed for the cold.
11:01I was wandering in the woods.
11:03I found a fire which had been left by some beggars.
11:06I was overcome with delight at the warmth I experienced.
11:10I thrust my hand into the embers.
11:13I quickly do it out again with a cry of pain.
11:17Thus did I learn the meaning of physical pain.
11:19But I have had greater suffering than that, Frankenstein.
11:24Wandering in loneliness.
11:26And yet, you could give me happiness.
11:29I watched this couple whom you call peasants.
11:32They were happy.
11:32They loved each other.
11:33A love which I could never know.
11:35I wished to be friendly with them, but they fled from me.
11:38Viewed me with hatred and loathing.
11:40The man strove to kill me.
11:42Then he died.
11:44Tell me, foul monster.
11:46Why did you slay the child, William?
11:48Because he meant something to you.
11:49Because I wanted you to suffer as I have suffered.
11:52And I swear this, Frankenstein.
11:54If you do not give me a mate, then you shall have no mate.
11:58I shall slay your wife.
12:00You dare to threaten to kill my wife?
12:02I swear that unless you start work very soon,
12:05unless you commence to create another creature,
12:08then your wife shall die.
12:11What happened, Baron Frankenstein?
12:13Did you agree to the conditions imposed by the monster?
12:16Oh, I can tell you no more today, Captain Wilkins.
12:18The memory of those horrors is still too fresh upon my mind.
12:22Return later, and I will continue with my story.
12:28The memory of those horrors is still too fresh upon my mind.
12:29The memory of those horrors is still too fresh upon my mind.
12:39The memory of those horrors is still too fresh upon my mind.
12:42The memory of those horrors is still too fresh upon my mind.
12:44The memory of those horrors is still fresh upon my mind.
12:45The memory of those horrors is still fresh upon my mind.
12:45The memory of those horrors is still fresh upon my mind.
