Viewers leaving the theater early might miss a brief credits sequence involving Detective Wiles and Lupino. Here’s a closer look at the scene and its significance.

The film does not offer a clean resolution. Frank and the Bride both confess their love for one another and vow to be together “till the end of time,” but the scene is more poignant than victorious.

Maggie Gyllenhaal's The Bride! makes multiple references to Frankenstein films of the past, but one Easter egg proves how smart she and her movie truly are.

Actress-turned-director Maggie Gyllenhaal gives voice and agency to the iconic "Bride of Frankenstein" from the 1935 classic film.
