Scholars have identified a gay sensibility suffused through the film, especially a camp sensibility, particularly embodied in the character of Pretorius ( Thesiger ) and his relationship with Henry Frankenstein ( Clive ).

Forster wrote an early version of his famous essay “ What I Believe ” with its choice, still shocking for some, of personal relations over patriotism: his quiet assertion in the face of the increasingly totalitarian claims of both left and right that " personal relations ... love and loyalty to an individual can run counter to the claims of the State ".
