This is a simple adaptation for a Nickleodeon
16 February 2001
Ah, the days before the world wars -- was the last great military activity the civil war of the 1860's? Mr. Hyde wears strange false teeth and is rather anal about hanging up his hat before destroying his alter-ego's laboratory. The Doctor's fiancee, a minister's daughter, wears two pretty dresses, one in white, then one complete with fur pelts, all in black after her father's demise. Dr. Jeckyll's jacket had satin accents at the collar. Each location is to be treasured for its simplicity. There is a cinematically framed image of people running down a sidewalk -- my favorite scene (I also like the shot in Cameron's Titanic where the boy sends a top spinning across the parquet floors of the ship's deck.)
