Young Frankenstein (1974) Edit

A few short weeks ago, coming from a background...

A filthy, slimy rat!

A laboratory assistant temporarily.

A light so brilliant and wondrous...

A little paint, a few flowers...

A man whose family name was once both famous...

A riot is an ugly thing...

A riot is an ugly thing...

A rounded protrusion called the pons...

A sudden light broke in upon me.

A temporary companion to help me pass a few short hours in my lonely life.

A toast to Yes!

A toast.

A visitor is all I ask.

Aaah!

Abby normal.

Agggh!

Agggh!

Agggh!

Agggh!

Agggh! Agggh!

Ah, but your hand is frozen, my child.

Ah! Oh, my ahhh! Ahhh! [Gasps]

Ahh!

All right all right.

All right, I think I have it figured out now.

All right, I think I have it figured out now.

All right. Now now now.

All those scientists, they're all alike!

All we need now is an equally magnificent brain.

An incredibly big mute.

And a somewhat more...

And a stalk tapering downwards called the medulla oblongata...

And all the more painful to us, your elders...

And becomes, of course, the spinal cord.

And coordination.

And from minus to plus.

And grace.

And he is... mine!

And I am going to convince him that he is loved...

And I want the world to know...

And I won't say it.

And I'll block the bookcase with my body.

And not because of my accidental relationship...

And now, may I present to you...

And penetrate...

And stand beside this table?

And strap him down tightly!

And the central nervous system.

And the other one is just for socks and poo poo undies.

And then...

And there's the only other door.

And they ran away in horror.

And transformed dead components into

And where is my grandfather's private library?

And yet so simple...

Any doctor might have them in his study.

Are gently pulled apart...

Are there any questions before we leave?

Are there any questions before we proceed?

Are you ready?

Are you speaking of the worm or the spaghetti?

Are you sure you want to go through with this?

Aren't there any lights in this place?

Arrgh!

Arrgh! Arrgh! Arrgh!

As a matter of fact, we were just having one as you were driving up.

As long as I can remember, people have hated me.

As long as I can remember, people have hated me.

As the leader of this community...

As the minuteness of the parts formed a great hindrance to my speed...

As well as our successes...

As your creator, I command you to come back!

At your service, sir. Always.

Back on the operating table...

Backwards!

Balance...

Baron Beaufort von Frankenstein.

Be of good cheer.

Because once a nerve fiber is severed...

Because this poor half crazed genius...

Because we still have nightmares from five times before.

Before we go around killing people...

Behind ze bookcase.

Between reflexive and voluntary nerve impulses.

Books and papers? It is!

Boy.

But are carried out along pathways...

But aren't you the grandson of the famous Dr. Victor Frankenstein...

But as a Fronkensteen, aren't you the least bit curious about it?

But for what you're about to see next...

But genes und chromosomes.

But how? How? Before it's too late.

But I didn't look upstairs.

But I'd rather be remembered...

But I'm a rather brilliant surgeon.

But I'm going to help you.

But I'm not going to be the first.

But it seems to be coming...

But look what has been done with hearts and kidneys.

But there's nothing here but books and papers!

But they told me it was Igor.

But tonight...

But what did you ever get from him?

But what if we block the nerve impulse...

But what they really want is to rule the world!

But whoever it was just barely finished putting out his cigar.

But why do they hate you?

But you did. I just heard it.

But you have to remember that a worm...

But, Papa, I told you that I was turning the rostbraten.

By simply applying local pressure?

Call it... a hunch. ♪♪ [Imitates Rim Shot]

Calm down. I'm not afraid of you.

Chained

Cigars.

Close your robe and follow me.

Come on! Come. Oh!

Come! Come on! You can do it!

Come! Come on! You can do it!

Damen und herren...

Darling, you mustn't worry so.

Darling!

Darling!

Dead is dead!

Destiny, destiny!

Destiny! Destiny!

Didn't you Didn't you used to have that on the other side?

Dignity...

Dismissed.

Distinguished colleagues...

Do not open this door...

Do you also say Froderick?

Do you have your cigar? Let me see.

Do you know what that means?

Do you understand?

Do you understand? Do not open this door!

Do you wanna talk about physical strength?

Do you want to talk about sheer muscle?

Do you want to talk about the Olympian ideal?

Doctor, I have

Doctor?

Doctor? Where are you?

Does that mean

Doesn't the bringing back to life what was once dead hold any intrigue for you?

Don't be frightened, dear. It's just a rat.

Don't give me that!

Don't inhale until the tip glows.

Don't put the candle back.

Don't speak. Don't say a word.

Don't touch him! He wants to do it by himself!

Don't you know a joke when you hear one?

Don't you remember? I asked you to put Helga to

Dr. Baron Frederick von Frankenstein.

Dr. Frankenstein.

Dr. Fronkensteen, are you all right?

Dr. Fronkensteen, wake up.

Eh, how do you do? I am Dr. Fronkensteen.

Ein, zwei, drei!

Ein, zwei, drei!

Especially when there is a Frankenstein...

Even at the cost of my own life.

Exactly.

First, may I offer for your consideration...

Follow me, please.

Follow me.

Following in his grandfather's footschtops!

For a little sponge cake und a little wine!

For a special occasion, I've been saving...

For God's sake. Come on. Are you trying to make me look like a fool?

For safety's sake, don't humiliate him!

For the love of God, come back!

For your intellectual and philosophical pleasure...

For, oh, say, five or six seconds.

Freddy, darling, how can I say in a few minutes...

Free!

From behind ze bookcase.

From that fateful day...

From what was once an inarticulate mass...

Fronkensteen.

Get down, you fool!

Get in there! [Mutters]

Get ready!

Get set! Go!

Give my creation...

Gone. Gone!

Good girl.

Good man.

Good night, darling. [Kisses]

Good night, Frau Blücher.

Good night, Herr Doktor.

Good night.

Good!

Good!

Gorilla?

H. Delbruck.

Ha ha ha ha!

Ha! Monsters!

Halt!

Hand me that candle, will you?

Hand me that robe, would you, dear?

Has given me life.

Has graciously offered his services for this afternoon's demonstration.

Have the preparations been made for the transference?

He alone held an image of me as something beautiful.

He did it just for you and he meant so well.

He has a rotten brain!

He is as gentle as a lamb.

He used his own body as a guinea pig...

He was my boyfriend!

He will curse the day...

He would have an enormous schwanstucker.

He's a Frankenstein! And they're all alike!

He's free! Do you hear?

He's gonna be very popular.

He's out!

Hearts and kidneys are tinkertoys!

Hello there.

Hello, handsome!

Hello, Mrs. Frankenstein.

Hello!

Hello.

Hello. Would you like to have a roll in the hay?

Help me! Quick! The sedative!

Here I come.

Herself!

Hit it!

Honey, did you see?

Honey! Honey, I hope you didn't find Daddy's little party too boring.

How do you do? How do you do?

How does a nice bowl of soup sound to you, huh?

How hungry you must have been.

How long I've waited for the pleasure of another human being.

How much do you want to let me go? My father's very rich.

How to speak, how to move, how to think.

How very nice to meet you, Constable.

Hurry now. We're fighting time and the elements.

I alone succeeded in discovering...

I am a bit tired after all.

I am Frau Blücher.

I am man...

I am The Monster!

I assure you there is nothing to fear.

I began an experiment in

I could give you a little peace.

I didn't make a yummy sound. I just asked you what it is.

I didn't realize you were mute.

I don't believe in fate!

I don't know.

I feel it!

I heard the strangest music from the upstairs kitchen...

I know everyone in this neighborhood, but I've never seen yo ur face before.

I know what he likes.

I know.

I myself...

I put a special hamper in the bathroom just for your shirts.

I remember the last time.

I resolved therefore to make the creature of a gigantic stature.

I said he will curse the day that he was born a Frankenstein.

I say, there's the possibility of electrocution!

I see.

I suggest you put on a tie.

I suppose you're right.

I think so.

I think you can find the way out by yourself, can't you?

I think...

I think...

I thought I told you never to interrupt me while I'm working!

I thought you did.

I want you...

I was going to make espresso.

I wonder what's got into them?

I wonder who that could be at this hour?

I wouldn't think an intelligent fellow like you...

I'll count the hours that you're away.

I'll just pay the driver.

I'll say it. I'll say it. I'll say it.

I'll show you. I'll show you.

I'm a little tired.

I'm a V I [Gasps]

I'm engaged. And once he

I'm expecting a very important call.

I'm going in there.

I'm going in there.

I'm going to set you free.

I'm going to show you how to walk...

I'm going to teach you.

I'm holding on to it, darling.

I'm not a Frankenstein.

I'm not partial to desserts myself, but this is excellent.

I'm sorry, Doctor.

I'm sorry, Doctor. This cable came while you were gone.

I'm talking about the central nervous system!

I'm yours all of me. What else can I say?

If I could find a way to equalize the imbalance in his cerebral spinal fluid...

If I could not inspire love, which was my deepest hope...

If I could spot the triggering mechanism

If it were not for this continuous stream...

If science teaches us anything...

If the under aspects of the temporal lobes...

If there was just some way...

If there was some way I could help to...

If you don't mind, can we get on with your question?

If you will follow me.

Igor, bring the bags as soon as you're finished, please?

Igor, release the safety valve on the main wheel.

In carrying on your grandfather's work?

In case I get the frights during the night?

In conclusion, it should be noted

In my loneliness, I decided that...

In other words, his veins, his feet, his hands, his organs...

In spite of our mechanical magnificence...

Inga, quick! See who that is.

Into a 7 1/2 foot long...

Into the frightful face of death itself!

Into the very womb...

Is a being approximately seven feet in height...

Is a being approximately seven feet in height...

Is Frankenstein!

Is not a human being.

Is that what you're telling me?

Is this the Transylvania Station?

Is your room just down the hall...

Isn't it true that Darwin preserved...

It begins as a stimulus from the cerebral cortex...

It is not superstition that worries me, Herr Doktor...

It isn't. It's Frederick Fronkensteen.

It might be dangerous.

It reaches the soul when words are useless.

It seems louder over here.

It teaches us to accept our failures...

It was your grandfather Victor's room.

It would seem that way...

It's alive!

It's fun.

It's gonna be a long night. If you need any help with the girls, please don't

It's in the blood of all Frankensteins.

It's nothing, nothing, I tell you.

It's probably just from some nearby cottage.

It's pronounced Fronkensteen.

It's rotten, I tell you! Rotten!

It's the music that's bringing him back!

It's the only thing that can save him now.

Ix nay on the otten ray.

Ja! Ja! Track 29!

Ja. I see that you are The Monster.

Jeder aussteigen für Transylvania.

Jeder aussteigen für Transylvania.

Just a few more seconds!

Just a few sutures. Throw the main switch!

Just at the swelling...

Just hold it right there now.

Just like old friends. [Chuckles]

Kill the monster!

Ladies and gentlemen, may I present...

Ladies and gentlemen, up until now...

Ladies and gentlemen...

Ladies and gentlemen...

Ladies, this way.

Let me out of here. Get me the hell out of here.

Let me see. All right.

Let's go.

Let's try this one.

Life!

Life!

Life! Do you hear me?

Like a bunch of broccoli!

Listen, I have to be back by 11:30.

Little boys ain't supposed to play with fire.

Look at that boyish face.

Look at that sweet smile.

Look! Look at this!

Look. No blood. No decomposition.

Loose! He's broken loose.

Man about town.

May I be the first...

May I now present a cultured, sophisticated...

Maybe it is better off dead.

Maybe she was in the bathroom when you looked.

Me, a poor blind man, and you you, a mute.

Mesdames and messieurs...

Might possibly be...

Mmm mmm.

Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.

Mmmmm, mmmmm. Mmmmm, mmmmm. Mmmmm.

Mmmmm!

Mmmmm! [Growls]

Mmmmm! [Growls]

Mmmmm! The feeling is mutual.

Mmmmm.

Mmmmm.

Mmmmm.

Mmmmm.

Mmmmm.

Mmmmm.

Mmmmm.

Mmmmm. Mmmmm.

Mmmmm. Oh!

Mmmmmmmm!

Most qualified to judge the situation fairly.

Mr. Hilltop here, with whom I have never worked...

Mr. Hilltop, would you hop up on your feet...

Mr. Hilltop, you may lower your knee.

Mr. Hilltop...

Mrs. Frankenstein. What a beautiful name!

My grandfather was a very sick man.

My name is Gerhardt Falkstein.

My name is Harold, and I live here all alone.

My name...

Nay, even more...

Nein!

Neither do we intend them to carry out our contraction of muscles...

New York next! Everybody out for New York!

Newly arrived from America.

Nice and cozy.

Nice grouping.

Nice hopping.

Nice working with you.

No escaping no

No escaping that for me!

No matter how cruelly I beg you...

No matter how cruelly I beg you...

No matter how terribly I may scream...

No matter what you hear in there...

No tongues.

No, he won't. Not this one.

No, it's pronounced eye gor.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no.

No, thanks.

No! No, you mustn't!

No. Frederick.

No. Thank you.

Nor given any prior instructions to...

Not one second more or less.

Not the third switch.

Not to the good people of this village...

Nothing to worry about. Where are you going? Where

Nothing!

Nothing.

Now come along like a good boy.

Now for a little surprise.

Now give me a kiss and say good night.

Now I've touched it. Happy?

Now throw a kiss and say bye bye.

Now tie off the kites and hurry down as fast as you can!

Now, we haven't heard from the one man...

Now!

Now!

Now? Right here?

Now... walk!

Of course I am.

Of course!

Of course.

Of impervious nature...

Of lifeless tissues...

Of motor impulses, we would collapse...

Of our evidence.

Of the primary cerebellar functions

Oh, all right.

Oh, can I give you a shine?

Oh, dear. Nothing left.

Oh, Doctor, I feel so terrible.

Oh, Frederick, if only there was some way I could...

Oh, God in heaven, what have I done?

Oh, hurry now. Before I make a fool of myself.

Oh, I think I love him. [Sighs]

Oh, look, Doctor. A passageway!

Oh, maybe it's better this way.

Oh, my friend, my friend.

Oh, my God! It's the villagers!

Oh, my God. Woof.

Oh, my joy and my prize from heaven.

Oh, my sweet darling. Oh, my dearest love.

Oh, never mind.

Oh, some monster you are.

Oh, thanks very much.

Oh, that! Ja! Yes.

Oh, that'll be Inga. Herr Falkstein thought you might need...

Oh, tosh!

Oh, Victor.

Oh, Victor.

Oh, what an awesome sight.

Oh, yes, sir. I was told you were here.

Oh, you men are all alike!

Oh, you're incorrigible!

Oh!

Oh! Oh, you can't be serious.

Oh! Sorry. I

Oh! Waaah!

Oh.

Oh.

Oh. All right. Good.

Oh. Forgive me.

Oh. That's all right.

Ohh!

Ohh.

Ohhh! Who are you?

Ohhh.

Ohhh. Thank God you put Helga to bed.

On the posterior nerve roots...

Once and for all and without any shame...

Oof!

Ooh, sounds like, uh, to give!

Ooh! Ohh! [Laughs]

Open this goddamn door or I'll kick your rotten heads in!

Or artificially proportionate in size.

Or or...

Or you will undo everything I've worked for.

Our greatest dread has always been the knowledge of our own mortality.

Ovaltine?

Pardon me, boy.

Passes through the brain stem and to the particular muscles involved.

Penny for your thoughts.

People laugh at you. People hate you.

Perhaps I could help you with that hump.

Perhaps?

Please, I beg you!

Put that man down!

Put... the candle... back!

Put... ze candle... back!

Quick! Quick, give him the

Quiet dignity and grace.

Ready to live again in a new body.

Reflex movements are those which are made independently of the will...

Reputation.

Residing in this house.

Rubbish!

Ruff! Oof! [Whimpers]

Schwartzwalder kirsch torte.

Second syllable. Little word.

Sed a give?

See? Mama was right.

Seven has always been my lucky number.

Seven or eight quick ones and you're off with the boys to boast and brag!

Shh!

Short of bloodshed.

Shove against the other side of the bookcase.

Since the creation of fire!

Sit down!

Sit down.

So near we can almost touch it?

So soon before our wedding...

So this is where it all happened.

So, then, what we're aiming for...

So, then, what we're aiming for...

Some warm milk...

Sometimes, I'm afraid of the lightning.

Sophisticated way of expressing myself.

Stand back.

Stay close to the candles.

Steady!

Stop that. I'm talking about the luggage.

Stop! Don't come closer!

Such strange goings on.

Switching off!

Take out the candle...

Than you have of mending a broken nervous system!

Thank heavens that's over with.

Thank you very much, Constable.

Thank you, Doctor.

Thank you, Lord! Thank you!

Thank you.

Thank you.

That any more than common injury...

That can save this poor creature.

That we love him!

That would simplify everything.

That you have no interest whatsoever...

That you order these people about?

That's a tough choice.

That's enough now!

That's Fronkensteen.

That's Fronkensteen. [Groans]

That's good enough for the likes of him.

The doctor said to allow 15 minutes

The gateway to immortality.

The greatest single contribution to science...

The monster got part of your wonderful brain.

The only thing that concerns me is the preservation of life!

The poor, lifeless hulk.

The reanimation of dead tissue?

The reanimation of dead tissue.

The secret of bestowing life.

The so called brain stem consists of the midbrain...

The staircase can be treacherous.

The things he'd say to me.

The upper portion of the stem of the brain can be seen.

Then you and Victor were

There castle.

There is little chance of stopping it...

There is no way in heaven or on earth...

There!

There's only one answer.

There's something I've always wanted to ask you about that operation.

There's very little of the midbrain that we can actually see.

These are serious charges, you're making...

They say they're working for us...

They wanted to hurt you...

Think you'll be more comfortable in the rear.

This is a good boy.

This is a mother's angel.

This is a nice boy.

This is my assistant Inga. May I present Frau Blücher?

This is my financier Elizabeth.

This is my grandfather's private library!

This is the 20th century, Kemp. Monsters are passé, like ghosts and goblins.

This is the only library I know of, Dr. Frankenstone.

This man is different, I tell you.

This was Victor's

Through the dumbwaiter.

Throw it, I say! Throw it!

Throw the second switch!

Throw the third switch!

Tists... and neurosurgeons...

To a famous... cuckoo.

To bring you the will of your great grandfather...

To give me a calmer brain...

To have some kindness from a stranger.

To long friendship.

To offer you my hand in friendship?

To regenerate life back into it.

To sit up.

To them, he is a very real thing.

To wait just a little while longer...

Together, you and I...

Tonight it is my great privilege of introducing to you...

Transylvania nächste.

Transylvania nächste.

Tsss!

Turn everything off and bring me down!

Two nasty looking switches over here...

Uh huh. Uh huh.

Uh, Dr. Frank

Uh, no thanks.

Uh, well, I assist Dr. Frankenstein in the laboratory.

Uh, would you mind telling me...

Uh, you know, I don't mean to embarrass you...

Uh, you were sent by Herr Falkstein weren't you?

Und I think that it is just about time that we had one!

Und just who do you think you are...

Und now let us all go to my house...

Und you are a Frankenstein.

Under the circumstances, I might stay here with you.

Until by some extraordinary means it actually began to move...

Until we meet again, Herr Baron.

Until, from the midst of this darkness...

Up.

Upon lifeless matter!

Very good, since our lab work today is a demonstration of just that distinction...

Victor!

W w w w wow! [Chuckles]

W w w wow!

Waaaugh!

Wait, master.

Wait!

Wait! Where are you going?

Walk heel to toe.

Walk this way.

Was it Hans Delbruck's?

We are not aware of these impulses.

We are not children here. We are scientists!

We had better confirm the fact...

We had better make damn sure...

We have done it!

We have intellectual discussions und we

We must enter quietly into the realm of genius.

We must enter quietly into the realm of genius.

We shall ascend into the heavens.

We shall hurl the gauntlet of science...

We tend to forget the simple pleasures

We've got to find him before he kills someone!

We've got to find him, do you understand?

Well, if you have everything in hand, sir, I'll say good night.

Well, let's turn in.

Well, now, look here. If it wasn't you, and it wasn't you

Well, sir, I'm not sure I understand the distinction...

Well, then I may give the villagers...

Well, there seem to be quite a few books.

Well, these books are all very general.

Well, they were wrong then, weren't they?

Well, this explains the music.

Well, this is, of course, an entirely different situation.

Well, this was fun.

Well, we'll see.

Well, why isn't it Froderick Fronkensteen?

Well, yes, but I thought perhaps tonight...

Well, you might say, but this is Transylvania...

Well, you must've been the tallest in your class.

Werewolf!

What a filthy job!

What a profound and reverent night is this.

What did he say?

What did you do to me?

What have I done?

What hump?

What I have to offer you...

What is in order...

What is it exactly that you do do?

What is it?

What is it? What's the matter?

What is this place?

What is this?

What it's taken me a lifetime to understand?

What shall we throw in now?

What the hell are you doing in the bathroom day and night?

What What do you want? What are you going to do to me?

What would I do without you?

What? Elizabeth? Here tonight?

What? Three syllables? Yes?

What's the matter with you people? I was joking!

What's the matter? You're afraid of this little fire?

Whatever that music is, it's coming from down there.

When I can be totally and unashamedly and legally yours?

When I give the word, throw the first switch!

When it would have been easy enough to stay out of danger...

When monster is loose, boards must be tight.

When these things would happen to him...

Where am I?

Where is it? Where is it?

Which can be done with any ordinary metal clamp...

Which has just been removed from the skull...

Which passes out of the skull through the foramen magnum...

Who went into graveyards, dug up freshly buried corpses...

Whose brain...

Why are you talking that way?

Why don't we proceed?

Why don't you get out of there and give someone else a chance?

Why, he'd be as right as rain.

Why, look. You haven't even touched your food.

Why, you're chilled to the bone, sir!

Will you talk to us, please?

With all features either congenitally...

With all of your might...

With quiet...

With very few exceptions...

Would all have to be increased in size.

Would fall for this superstitious rot.

Would the doctor care for a brandy before retiring?

Would you excuse me for one minute, dear?

Would you like that, meine schatze kopf?

Would you raise your left knee, please?

Yes, Doctor.

Yes, Doctor.

Yes, drop by any time. We are always open.

Yes, master.

Yes, well, I know what it means to be cold and hungry.

Yes, yes, yes. Ohhh.

Yes!
