“I’ve Never Done a Day’s Work in My Life” | Melvyn Hayes on Young Victor Frankenstein

To celebrate the birthday of Melvyn Hayes today, who played the young Victor Frankenstein, we’re sharing this exclusive clip from The Curse of Frankenstein Limited Collector’s Edition. Taken from a special two-part programme exploring the often-overlooked contribution of costume designer Molly Arbuthnot to Hammer’s gothic classics, this feature sees Professor Melanie Bell and the BFI’s Jo Botting discuss Molly’s vital work on Hammer’s films. Melvyn Hayes reflects on his time at Bray Studios, where he was costumed by Arbuthnot for his role as young Victor Frankenstein, and shares his memories of working on Hammer’s landmark 1957 classic.
