This movie...this cast...this script...this screenplay...this lighting...this production...this musical score...this acting...? RIP Peter Boyle, Madeline Kahn, Cloris Leachman, Marty Feldman, and Gene Wilder...you are all in my memories as being part of one of the greatest comedies in the history of cinema. And to you Mel Brooks, at 96 years young? May you live long and enjoy your accomplishments! Halloween is coming soon and I'll be ready for my tradition of watching the original 'Frankenstein', 'The Bride of Frankenstein', 'The Son of Frankenstein, and finally 'Young Frankenstein' in the coming days ahead.

These actors are the BEST! I miss all of them. I really miss Gene.

[@imisstoronto3121]

You forgot Kenny Mars, the inspector

[@TheHopSays]

Mel Brooks is a national treasure.

[@43painter]

Let us hope they haven't jabbed him!

[@harrybalsak916]

It was truly one of the most epic comedies ever made, alongside Blazing Saddles. Mel Brooks is a genius,

[@ilokivi]

With an honourable mention for The Producers (1968).

[@1960dave1960]

The idea, that the film was to be made in B&W was an act of total genius…..well done to all concerned……📽️🎥🎞️

[@gmaureen]

How can you not love Mel Brooks?

[@gtownboi3877]

Well he was a jew

[@BowWowVideo]

The best comedy ever made, pure genius.

[@sergeikorolevGZ]

RIP Teri Garr

[@walterszewczyk9024]

First significant acting role was original Star Trek episode, yes? Lol.Maybe?? 😮😊.

[@GottaWannaDance]

I met Teri years ago at a restaurant in Chicago area. I thought I had a crush on her til we met and chatted. Then, I knew I did. I told her I'd rob banks for her and Lasso the Moon in case we were apart too long. Wherever you are Teri, you're always in my heart, sending you peace.

[@joycegibbs5267]

genius film & brilliantly acted. A perfect film 👍

[@Peteripattaya]

That film is on my top ten list!

[@kayequinn7146]

Sometimes friends & I just had to say a word or a line & we'd bust a gut. Incomparable show, cast,"characters", just amazing! Can't find enough words to describe it.( I never watch the original....I'm still too afraid just of the Creature's face that I jump & turn away from it)

[@theguythatdoesthatonething2133]

I never liked this movie when I was younger but now that im in my 40s its one of my favorite movies.

[@agnescolmana7916]

I loved every aspect of this movie. I could watch it many more times and its the movie of treasures. Every time I watch it there is more to see and more to appreciate. Perfect cast, the set, Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder a terrific creation.

[@juliaross5268]

This is sooooo great! Thank you for posting this!

[@deborahthomas3475]

I just saw Clark Gable doing a Puttin On The Ritz song and dance scene. It looks like the inspiration for the debonair monster song and dance scene.

[@AAZEDLARC]

Also, RIP David J. Skal. He did so much for the awareness of classic horror

[@guitaoist]

I grew up with this movie (born 1987) and it was as dark as it was funny even as a kid. As an adult now i understand the second half of the humor, and horror

[@briangoldy8784]

I LOVE Mel Brooks. He started the Movie Spoof. genre.. an Its Hilarious. Never apologize Mr. Brooks. We Love it. ☺

[@ApothecaryGrant]

This , in my opinion , was the best homage to James Whale I have ever seen .

[@johndunj]

Hey Mel, I stream it every night.

[@BingGeaux]

997 love this movie - thanks Mel

[@TakeoMack-o4f]

Amazing movie, but I loved Reno 911 also you two.

[@RegnaSaturna]

Frau Blücher looks younger and more stunning than 34 years earlier.

[@frederickwelham3829]

"Stay close to the candles, the stairs can be treacherous", with the candles not alight. Brilliant.

[@sallybrown4947]

Flawless!

[@DovieRuthAuthor]

The Mel Brooks team was the best ever. I would love to see more. And I wish Marty Feldman would rise from the dead..

[@wsx2000]

The great Gerald Vinci violin performance should have been credited!

[@sherryhesner5940]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@motnosniv]

I love everything Teri Garr did. Madeline Kahn was an excellent singer as well.

[@jennylee9278]

It makes me crazy that nobody mentions that Marty Feldman was one of the original Python comedy troupe.

[@SuperHammaren]

No, but the Pythons (Palin and Jones) wrote for him before they (with John and the rest) formed their own group. He (Marty) was with Cleese and Chapman in "At last, the 1948's show". See the full story in :kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3iVd42crNyFhJI. He would have been marvelous in the group though. But he went to Hollywood instead.

[@TheHelper-l9m]

Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations --WOR and WLVI.

[@QuagmiresDooflab]

That's because he wasn't.

[@EdwardDevin]

Learned something today, thank you.

[@ApothecaryGrant]

He wasn’t . He was part of a show that preceded Python but the Pythons worked on … The 1940-something or other Show … can’t quite remember the number

[@ApothecaryGrant]

“ What great knockers!!!” .,,. “ Oh !! Sank you , Herr Doktor ! “ lol

[@DUCKSAREEVILLLLLLLL]

"Young Frankenstein" didn't diminish Mary Shelley's story or Boris Karloff's rendition at all. The best impersonators always love the subject of their impersonation at some level. P.S. That includes Jamie Foxx's impersonation of Trump.

[@evieblue959]

Love the random rant about General Practitioners by Mel Brooks.

[@JoannHines-g6f]

RIHP to the cast of " Young Frankenstein": Teri Garr, Gene, Peter Boyle, Marty Feldman, Cloris Leachman!❤❤

[@KATBIRD68]

Keeping it in black-and-white was genius color would have taken away from it

[@RechtmanDon]

The one and only flaw I saw in YF is the scene where the monster is climbing the wall to the music, and the line from Peter's skullcap is momentarily visible.

[@sombertownds149]

28:14 Ive got the digital! I watch it every night! Lol

[@charlesbard2331]

I remember some people who were turned off by that Part in the beginning of the movie when June Wilder was demonstrating to his class about the Central nervous system and was abusing that old man and they never watch it past that part....

[@DUCKSAREEVILLLLLLLL]

Note Mel Brooks starting at at 13:47. Mel's talking about the negative effects of the specialization of medicine. Were we able to vote for surgeon general, I would have voted for Mel Brooks over Biden's pick, Vivek H. Murthy, MD, MBA, any day of the week.

[@kevincarter8765]

Is there a bust of Mel brooks as a gargoyle in the movie? I’ve heard it was but I never saw it.

[@Jacky-b5c]

Somewhere I read, Bulcher means “glue factory”. I don’t know for sure but it’s funny.

[@nicholasjanke3476]

Ironically, the original Universal Frankenstein films themselves went the comedy route-Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein-even though that wasn't a parody but a horror film with a sharp sense of humour. An American Werewolf In London was the same way: a straight horror film but with a strong sense of humour.

[@AAZEDLARC]

Respect to Mr. Curtis, "Frankenstein" and "Bride" only. I've picked fights with people over "Son" lol

[@ApothecaryGrant]

Honestly Black and White is perfect for gothic horror

[@chrisrose_krii_lun_aus]

It's Fonkenstien

[@StonedTriker]

Who's Ray, and why is he blue?

[@sherryhesner5940]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@brianphillips5576]

Cloris... I named my son after her

[@barbaraferron7994]

Mandela Effect, I remember it being in color.

[@moorlock2003]

“Follow me please”

[@steveburke7675]

I didnt know Teri Garr was wearing stockings...........(falls off chair).
