SUMMARY:Watching Movies with Gloria Estefan: 'Young Frankenstein' (1974)
DESCRIPTION:Join the iconic music superstar Gloria Estefan and Bill Cosford Cinema manager\, Rene Rodriguez\, for a screening of Mel Brooks’ uproarious 1974 comedy “Young Frankenstein\,” followed by a Q&A in-person discussion about Estefan’s love for movies. \nEstefan is a Grammy award-winning singer\, actress\, songwriter\, author of two New York Times best-selling children’s books\, philanthropist and humanitarian. She is considered one of the world’s most recognizable and beloved performers and the most successful Latin crossover artist in music history\, per Billboard Magazine. \nHaving sold over 100 million records worldwide\, Estefan has garnered eight Grammy Awards and an Oscar nomination for her performance of the song “Music Of My Heart.” She has received an American Music Award for Lifetime Achievement\, the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song\, and was inducted into the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame. \nIn 2015\, President Obama honored Emilio & Gloria Estefan with the Presidential Medal of Freedom\, the Nation’s highest civilian honor\, presented to individuals who have made meritorious contributions to the United States\, to world peace\, and cultural endeavors. In 2017\, Gloria was the first Cuban-American singer-songwriter to receive The Kennedy Center Honors. \nShe is the founder of the Gloria Estefan Foundation whose mission is to support charitable programs for disadvantaged children and empower young people through education and opportunity. The Foundation also supports spinal cord research through the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis. \nIn June\, Estefan became the first Latina in history to be inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. \nYOUNG FRANKENSTEIN (1974) | d. Mel Brooks | With: Gene Wilder\, Peter Boyle\, Marty Feldman\, Madeline Kahn\, Cloris Leachman\, Gene Hackman. | Running time: 1H 46M | RATED PG \nWriter-director Mel Brooks had already enjoyed one smash hit in 1974\, “Blazing Saddles\,” when he released “Young Frankenstein” in theaters that same year. Arguably the director’s funniest and best-made film\, this affectionate spoof of the 1931 horror classic “Frankenstein” is a riotous comedy and a loving homage to the monster films of the 1930s. \n“‘Young Frankenstein’ is as funny as we expect a Mel Brooks comedy to be\, but it’s more than that: It shows artistic growth and a more sure-handed control of the material by a director who once seemed willing to do literally anything for a laugh. It’s more confident and less breathless. \n“The movie is a send-up of a style and not just of the material. It looks right\, which makes it funnier. And then\, paradoxically\, it works on a couple of levels: first as comedy\, and then as a weirdly touching story in its own right. \n“A lot of the credit for that goes to the performances of Gene Wilder\, as young Frankenstein\, and Peter Boyle as the monster. They act broadly when it’s required\, but they also contribute tremendous subtlety and control. Boyle somehow manages to be hilarious and pathetic at the same time.” — Roger Ebert \nTickets are $10 and are available via the link. UM students use code UMSTUDENT for free admission (must show Cane Card at the door).
