Blog fever — catch it!
Kriota Willberg, choreographer, anatomist and creator and co-director of The Bentfootes, now has a blog, in which she painstakingly analyzes movies from a medical perspective, with an accent on the fantastic. Could the events of Face/Off really happen? If so, how? What are the realities of the science of Fantastic Voyage, Young Frankenstein or Mr. Sardonicus? Only The Cinematologist knows.
I’ve added it to my links. That sounds amazing!
Sounds like a good read, I’ll check it out!
Thanks for the plug!
Thanks for the plug, Todd! Of course, you got me going on this type of topic years ago, now I just have a public place to share… If anyone has requests regarding film, pathology, anatomy, and/or medicine, please let me know. I love a challenge.
Best,
Kriota
Re: Thanks for the plug!
I eagerly await what you have to say about Mr. Sardonicus.
Re: Thanks for the plug!
I’m looking forward to Mr. Sardonicus, too. I’ve received a couple requests from some of my students and right now this list looks like The Elephant Man, Spiderman (people are always interested in the sticky stuff that is found in the palms of young men), and then Mr. Sardonicus. That should keep me busy for quite awhile.

Is this the same person you consulted about the accuracy and realism of Two Face’s half burned visage?
It is.
Sorry, gents! She’s married!
