In a novel the narrator can talk directly to the reader but in a movie you can't have the main character talk to the audience. (Actually you can but nobody has dared to try such a mode, at least not for the entirety of the movie.) So to give Dr. Frankenstein somebody to talk and interact with the character of Igor was added.
In the book there was no such a person. In the movies he is known as Igor.
Igor -- only in the movies not in the book.
In the original book, there isn't one.In the movies it is Igor.In 'Young Frankenstein' it's Igor (eye-gor).
Igor - Young Frankenstein - was created in 1974.
Igor.
Igor (that's pronounced eye-gor)
If Igor had an antonym, it could be Dr. Frankenstein.

Igor
There was no igor in the original 1931 film. His assistance name was Fritz and and was played by Dwight Frye.
Henry Clervali thought it was igor_____________No, people often referred to "Igor" or "Ygor", but it was Fritz, really!Cheers, ;)BamSec1
