It is so much its own identity that people believe erroneously that the blind hermit comes from young Frankenstein sometimes.

And it comes obviously from the novel and from Bride of Frankenstein, the whale movie, which is an exquisite sequel to the first Frankenstein.

Always a pleasure, and thank you for the wisdom and the careful guiding of this lengthy interview, which I adored every second of.
