Today, Frankenstein.

The classic story reimagined by the great filmmaker Guillermo del Toro.

He saw the 1931 film when he was seven.

His other films include Pan's Labyrinth and The Shape of Water.

Also, we hear from Cameron Crowe, who wrote and directed Jerry Maguire, Say Anything, and the semi-autobiographical film Almost Famous, about writing for Rolling Stone starting at the age of 15.

His new memoir, The Uncool, is about being a naive teen exposed to the excesses of rock musicians.

That's coming up on Fresh Air Weekend.
