Suggested correction: Technically, Lugosi did not play THE Wolf Man. He played A Wolf Man who infected Larry Talbot. He never appeared in werewolf makeup.
Question: In the 1941 movie "The Wolfman", the poem about werewolves ends with "And the Autumn moon is bright." In this movie, why was it changed to "And the moon is full and bright"?
Answer: In The Wolfman, it is implied Talbot transformed every night. For Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman, the story required that it only happen occasionally (allowing him to travel to Europe without becoming a beast every night). Therefore, the lore was reconned to state that he only changed during the full moon.
