Young Frankenstein (1974) Filming Location | Mel Brooks 4K

[@renaissancepoet]

Even Mel Brooks has said Young Frankenstein is his best; not funniest, but best film he's ever made.

[@bullishonparade1765]

Yes!! One of my favourite movies of all time. Werewolf! Where wolf? There wolf !

[@LouCheezeYouSleaze]

The "Abby Normal" line is one of the funniest jokes I've ever heard in a movie. Gene Wilder and Marty Feldman delivered their lines so flawlessly and in character.

[@mongo883c]

One of my fave movies of all time ☺️

[@billbrock8740]

Hey, Mike. Thanks for the “Put the color….. BACK!” bit. That was Priceless!!

[@DodLDec]

Mel Brooks has outlived most of the great actors in this movie. It's hard to believe most of the actors are gone. Such a funny movie. I remember watching this as a kid when it first came out. Of course my mom who took me and my brothers to see the movie didn't like it , but she sat there with us and she laughed too, even though she said it wasn't her type of movie. Thank you for this great historic video.

[@kaymad143]

I love Mel Brook's movies, everyone in that cast were fantastic! Thank you for sharing.

[@sly2392]

in my opinion this is the funniest movie ever made. so many hilarious one liners. sedagive ? could be worst - could be raining. the directing, the story, and most of all the actors. PERFECTION. thank you guys for this video. 🕷 🎃 HAPPY HALLOWEEN.

[@justanotheryoutubeaccount0]

It's one of my top five movies

[@sly2392]

monty python and the holy grail is my second favorite comedy. HILARIOUS.@@justanotheryoutubeaccount0

[@kat66meow]

I don’t know how many times I have quoted lines from this movie whether people got it or it went over their heads. Mel Brooks has always been and always will be a genius! I love him and every movie he has made. I love all the cast in this movie. Especially Gene, Madelyn, and Cloris! I hope Mel writes more movies like this! 🖤😻🖤🫶🏼🖤

[@janetlieb2507]

❤❤Dear Grimm. Wonderful❤ Great film footage And locations. Beautiful overlook. ❤❤❤

[@-Millzy]

Omg young Frankenstein, one of the best movies

[@walterhager8626]

1 of my faves. You can never go wrong with Gene Wilder or a Mel Brooks directed film. Love when he's giving a lesson about the nervous system DEAD IS DEAD! 😂Then stabs himself in the leg

[@mcgseafrass77]

Saved for later , many thanks Grimm's, Young Frankenstein is a classic 👍

[@heidevanness2788]

Great movie, love Gene Wilder. It's odd that they would place the historical plaque on the alley wall instead of the front of the building. But it's great that they saved the facade for us nostalgic folk. 🖤 Thanks Michael, for "Puttin' On The Ritz!"

[@KR-sh6rm]

What hump? 🤣 One of my fave movies!

[@leesashriber5097]

This was great!! Young Frankenstein is a classic!!! I really appreciated this. Awesome job ghouls!!🎃 Madeline Kahn was an amazing talent. She was awesome as Elizabeth. Sad we lost her so soon. Gene Wilder was an icon. 🕊️❤️🙏

[@SoCal780]

I love all this Hollywood nostalgia that you’ve been presenting to us. On a side note, Teri Garr’s brother (Dr. Ed Garr), was my wife’s podiatrist. Great guy, I used to go with her to his office in Orange County for her appointments. He had all of these crazy props (regarding feet, naturally) all over his office. One was a “toester” which was this toaster with these fake plastic toes coming out of it! 😂 I can’t remember the others but they were along that line. I would talk to him about her movie roles and he was very engaging and conversational. I really liked him a lot and my wife did too. I was sad to hear that he passed away a few years ago.

[@beautiful35]

Great actors and Great video, Happy Halloween 🎃🎃🎃🎃👻👻👻👻

[@themerchantofengland]

Hey guys, liking the nail polish! Love this film and Mel Brooks is still alive and well at 97! Bless him x.

[@markbass7145]

RIP Marty Feldman

[@not2bfound586]

OMG! One of my favorite movies! Thank you!!!! 🙏❤️

[@not2bfound586]

What a lovely piece on Mayfair Theatre, Wilder, Feldman and YF! Always amazing, always appreciate your work! 🙏

[@littlegeorgie79]

What a great morning to start with a classic movie 🎬 and Grimm Life 💚🖤💚 👻

[@timelordvictorious]

Marty Feldman was a great guy . wrote a lot of classic sketches like the grumpy Yorkshire men bit for Monty python

[@rangerrecon]

Yes! Great tribute to a great movie. We needed Jessica portraying Elizabeth - she's the perfect Madelin Kahn fill-in! Better yet - how about a dedicated Madelin Kahn video?

[@cperez358]

I agree .

[@satyadasgumbyji8956]

Absofuknlutely!!! 🤘😎

[@ianfergalfarrar]

Isn't there a bench in central park dedicated to her I would love to see more about Madeleine Kahn It would be nice to see Peter Boyle a Gene Wilder's final resting place too ❤😢

[@thornmallow1]

YES!!!!

[@john_from_eastcoast.]

I liked her in the comedy movies 'What's up, Doc?' and 'Paper Moon'. Highly recommended to watch! 😂

[@justanotheryoutubeaccount0]

I love the story of how gene defended the dance scene.

[@bethanys.arbaugh9572]

One of my favorite Mel Brooks movies

[@tombrown8281]

You did it again great video thanks again and happy Halloween 👻

[@jons.105]

This is really special for YF fans! Thank you!

[@richardcoombes9491]

micheal and jessica love this film and of course u to guys and as always a big happy haloween to u both

[@TheGatlinburgHussey]

Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains..That was my late mom's FAVORITE movie of all time . ..Along with Blazing saddles 🏞️🌄🐻

[@walterhager8626]

I love Mel's movies. Young Frankenstein and blazing saddles is hilarious. Hollywood is big on remakes but they definitely wouldn't remake Blazing Saddles😅. I have never watched 1 star wars movie because they're not my type plus pop culture and another great movie of his Spaceballs you get the gest of star wars lol. 1 of my faves that I think is underatted is Life Stinks I love it too. Basically any movie Mel has a hand in is hilarious

[@TheGatlinburgHussey]

@@walterhager8626 High Anxiety was another one my mom loved ..

[@rachaelsevern8465]

I absolutely love Young Frankenstein, so so funny, the cast ing for this movie was superb. One of my faves aswell. Love how they restored the front of the theatre. Thanks again Michael for another great vid. Happy Halloween 🎃🎃🎃

[@Nephilimfields]

A movie in my Top 10 favourites of all time. I never get tire of watching it. Thank you, Grimms!

[@thEannoyingE]

One of my favorite films! I’m so glad someone finally covered these locations. One of the Stickfaden electric apparatus is being put up on auction soon, along with part of Boyle’s monster costume!

[@robintropper660]

Young Frahnk-en-steen is the best Halloween movie and funniest comedy of all time, SELAH!

[@Wild1995]

Thank you for finding this and showing the world.

[@jasunhuerta5587]

OMG, Young Frankenstein!... Mel Brooks's BEST, I think... Those old jokes still hold up, and dare I say it, I saw it when it first came out----- a large line went around the movie house. I love what you GriMMs did with the Black & White (Giggle!) Keep up the great line up the shot episodes, and happy Halloween..... :^)""""""""""""""""""

[@MB1BUMPER]

One of my favorite movies .I miss Gene so much.He was fantastic in every movie he entertained us all in.There should be a statue of Mel brooks in Hollywood as well.Great comedians.🤌🏻

[@kat66meow]

I agree with every word that you said here!! Truly!! They are comic geniuses!! 🫶🏼♥️

[@potterygogo]

Such a classic movie with such a powerful cast!

[@Comfort_In_Coffins]

Such a wonderful and classic film. Definitely one of my favorites. A shame there’s only a facade of the theatre but I’m happy they have something at least! Hoping you and Jessica have a wonderful day today!💜

[@mystikrebel1089]

Another Grimm Life Collective recommended place to visit on my list when I get to LA.I love the scenery and locations something about inspires creative ideas for me ..

[@jaydeeelady]

This is probably the millionth time you've heard this..BUT..! I genuinely enjoyed the podcast you guys did. It's not often that I let a video play and just go about work without getting bored with the dialogue or distracted. I was locked in. It was great to get to know you two on a different level and it made me appreciate your content even more. Anyway... I'll stop being cringe 😂

[@chuckprefume3218]

Awesome movie! One of my favorites. Thank you as always for the adventure!

[@john_from_eastcoast.]

Thank you for this video! 👍👍 I grew up watching this movie back in the day in Hollywood! Awesome!!

[@weekenderTone]

Teri Garr rocked my world.

[@MetalForLife1970]

Madeleine Kahn was amazing as well! Beauties!

[@derekchant7875]

Yeah I had a crush aswell

[@justanotheryoutubeaccount0]

What knockers!

[@samanthab1923]

I think she’s still alive. MS though

[@bigorange2082]

You take the blonde, I’ll take the one in the turban.

[@jerimiahjohnson4645]

Such an awesome movie. Mel Brooks is a comedic genius and too bad in today's society movies like this will never be made like they were again. Such an awesome video of locations you've found. Happy Halloween 🎃

[@kat66meow]

Ohhhhh my goodness! I was just talking about that yesterday with my guy. How movies like this will never be made. How many movies that are made today get quoted by the audience. I can’t think of one. It’s sad! 😔

[@alextaylor3815]

My first drive in movie!!

[@craiglewis6821]

I saw this movie 🎥 in the theater! Feldman was so funny 🤣!

[@Themedusatouch89]

Thanks for the amazing video... massive Gene wilder fan.. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@thorfinthorfin3010]

My favorite movie as a kid. Frankenstein in daylight was amazing. The little girl by the well and the blind shut in with the cigars was hilarious

[@gilbertgranby9339]

Gene Hackman was the Blind Man 😎✌️

[@danathompson5144]

I laugh uncontrollably every time I see the Putting on the Ritz scene. I love that movie.

[@sheilacrysler88]

One of my favorite movies. Thank you this was another great one👍

[@RiverRat_1977]

Mel Brooks also created and wrote the first year of the “Get Smart” TV series with SNL’s Buck Henry. They came up with some great catch phrases that people still quote ("Missed it by that Much")!! And of all their silly gadgets, my favorite was Max’s Rotary Dial Shoe Phone (Mel Brooks’ idea)!! I never missed an episode when I was a kid… but I had to watch the first few years in Black and White, because we didn’t get a color TV set until 1968!! But it’s still a classic… and I remember the anticipation leading up to the episode when Max and Agent “99” got married!! Allegedly, CIA personnel went to the studio to inquire about the technology behind the “Cone of Silence” Max and the Chief used for secret conversations… and I would’ve loved to seen the dejected looks on their faces after being told “it’s only a fake prop”!! Supposedly, the CIA guys wouldn’t leave until their electronics engineer thoroughly inspected the prop!! (Mel Brooks = 1, CIA = 0… Priceless!!!)

[@mash2481]

Ah, now you’re talking. Young Frankenstein is a top three movie for me, all time. I watch it every time it comes on.

[@canamrider07]

With traffic and the hustle and bustle of living in L.A., I probably drove by the theatre 50 times never knowing it was even there. Great find from a great movie.

[@Laura-l9n]

One of my favorite movies ever. Genius everywhere.

[@annetteechevarria8804]

Yes, I’m all for filming the video in black and white 😊…..3:36 “ put the 🕯️ back 😂

[@davidprice6994]

Love this film and to this day i can still shout out like the monster, Super duper looper lol

[@AliceEkonomo44o6]

Awesome movie! Young Frankenstein is one of my favorite movies. Thank you for sharing this another Grimm adventure. Hope you and Jessica have a blessed day. Love you guys.🥰❤️ Stay spooky and stay Grimm.🎃👻🧡🖤

Is your name froderick?

[@Monkeyfamilyslays]

I've always loved this movie. Mel Brooks was the best for making comedy movies in all genres.❤

[@thEannoyingE]

I didn’t realize the theater was demolished so recently, how depressing.

[@Samcote6741]

Learning that you do your videos without any script or voiceovers has given me a new level of appreciation for your videos and your gift of storytelling. Always love learning about these places in our own backyard!

[@nathalierayner6709]

My all time fave Mel Brooks film

[@masters1313]

One of my favorite movies of all time (top 3) 'Young Frankenstein'! Thank You Mel Brooks & all the cast!! Thank You also Michael.... appreciate all your in-depth entertaining vlogs! Hi Jessica....

[@2009numan]

I liked the shoes with the cobweb pattern on them

[@stangrunewald9374]

Hey 🤩Mike and Jessica?! How much you wanna bet Gene himself probably strolled right out front as you did, admiring that very face on the theatre?! Probably fair to say, he did! MAN, WOMAN I cannot thank you enough for showing me where that stuff happened! Gene and Mel were always strong influences on me!

[@schiltz371]

Give Yellowbeard a watch, it had Mardy Feldman, Peter Boyle, and Madeline Kahn from Young Frankenstein plus the all Monti python cast. ps did those painted fingernails come with a pair of high heels?

[@justinlane1980]

One of my favorite Mel Brooks movies! My favorite scene is Gene Hackman as the blind man! He was great in that short but funny role! Enjoyed the video!

[@benbowtrout]

Thank you for all the great videos!

[@gavmiller]

A favourite film since the first time I saw it as a kid in 1984. Thanks for this! Walk this way……

Great video Young Frankenstein is one of my favorite movies from back in the days when they made classic awesome movies Man I miss those You guys are are awesome love your videos and keep doing what you guys do 👍👍🙏🙏👏👏

[@DavidPalmer_blinder]

My girlfriend and I just spent the other week in Los Angeles (I promised that If she accompanied me to NAMM that we'd spent the whole week exploring LA). And as we snuck around the Hollywood Hills and Santa Monica, I kept seeing fragments of scenes from your videos and it made me smile. Not to mention a whole lot of GTA5 game map areas as well, there was that too. Excellent video, classic movie that hasn't aged!

[@KeithSkippyB]

Awesome and definitely a lovely tribute to do in this video, I love it Grimms ❤ 😊🤗

[@ZippyThePinhead]

Well done. 🙏 Happy to see that at least the facade still exists, amazed that it didn't suffer damage in the earthquake, and that they didn't demolish it too when they renovated the place. Still one of the best movies of my youth.

[@stephielulu9096]

Excellent film with so many brilliant actors! 🥰

[@jlangenfeld5479]

That was my favorite movie, still is. My wife and I will still sit down and watch it for a movie night. What made that movie so great is the cast. You can tell they all had fun together on every scene... classic.

[@SandifromAZ]

Yes! Hello from Arizona 👋 So glad to see you guys. I've seen this movie too many times to count 😂❤

[@adamunknown]

I went to an open house for the home you see at your intro shot, the triangle shaped house at the dead end of Macapa St. it was super cool, vintage 70s with an INCREDIBLE view

[@dantaylor6948]

O you legends !! Covering this masterpiece! Thank you x

[@briangardner963]

Great video Michael! I saw this movie on it's release in the theater, I was nine years old and already a horror movie geek, this movie made me laugh non stop, and it still does to this day. Thank you for bringing back great memories of my childhood.

[@robertjackson6664]

Thanks for this one. I saw Young Frankenstein in a theater right after it was released. It made me laugh then and it makes me laugh now! Such a great comedy that pays homage to the many Universal Frankenstein movies. It’s one of my favorites of all time. ❤

[@DarkLady13]

Watched your interview on Talks from the Crypt. You guys were awesome, articulate, and you bounced off of each other so well without interrupting or talking over the other and the interviewer actually listened without interruption! Some things I learned that I did not know, I saw your passion for what you do, you're recognizing and understanding the part that each of you play in making it the success that it is, and that clearly you are enjoying the ride while you can and I'm glad that you are because, it really does go so fast, but mostly, thank you for bringing us all along with you on your journey! ❤

[@johnnylatham9738]

Great!! Also your Interview on"Talks from the Crypt' is fantastic am halfway through it now

[@vicwolfrin]

My friend and I will randomly quote this film all the time
