2. Did this movie help you in understanding the plot of the novel ?
Movie become important medium in understanding the plot , structure and narratology of the novel. The concept of novel, Shelley ' s intention behind the Gothic fiction novel became clear in our minds . By movie it becomes clears that , which circumstances lead Victor to invents life after death , his thirst for scientific knowledge , impacts of the experiments on his life , psychology of character all elements made more impact on mind than only reading of the novel.
3. What do you think who is real monster ?
We can say that in some way Victor 's intention was noble ,by scientific experiment he wants to create which become useful for all mankind . but it becomes monster and than Victor not accept him and abandoned him. Human beings not accept him for his ugly look and difference .Monster then become monster when disappointed and wants to revenge. but he tries to cross the limits of human beings , he challenges God , and as a father not fulfilled his responsibility towards him. So monster become monster by Victor , so Victor can be consider as a real monster.
4. From where mery Shelley get the idea for the novel Frankenstein ?

5. Do you think the search for the knowledge is dangerous and destructive ?
In dialogue of Walton , "sorrow only increased with knowledge ."
In dialogue of monster , " Increase vof knowledge only discovered to me more clearly what a wretched outcast I was."
Search for knowledge is necessary , if there is not quest for knowledge , there may be not invented anything , which are become important part of our lives. But it becomes dangerous and destructive , when men wants to become superior to all and challenge the God like Dr. Faustus . We can see conflict between nature and science , man as product of nature , wanted to rule our science and nature limits . It becomes dangerous that by own mistakes get very tragic end.
