It had Maria Ouspenskaya's lament “...as the rain enters the soil, as the river enters the sea, so are tears that surround your predestined end...”
It had that great camera shot in church when Larry Talbot hesitates taking his seat.
It had that great line by Claude Rains about amateur astronomy...”when it comes to the Heavens there is only one professional.”
It had Bela Lugosi is a short but perfect role as the gypsy fortune teller with his accent in full bloom.
And it had the anguish of Lon Chaney Jr. struggling when his breakdown.
His hair was perfect.
