    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      John Barrymore hauled many of his prized potted plants from his apartment to the set to appear in scenery in the movie.
    • Goofs
      When the giant spider apparition (manifestation of Hyde) climbs onto Jekyll's bed, the legs of the actor manipulating the costume are clearly visible.
    • Quotes

      Sir George Carew: In devoting yourself to others, Jekyll, aren't you neglecting the development of your own life?

      Dr. Henry Jekyll: Isn't it by serving others that one develops oneself, Sir George?

      Sir George Carew: Which self? A man has two two - as he has two hands. Because I use my right hand, Should I never use my left?

      [Carew pointedly moves both hands indepemdently, making his point known to the whole table]

      Sir George Carew: Your really strong man fears nothing. It is the weak one that is afraid of - - experience.

    • Crazy credits
      Except for John Barrymore whose name appears above the title, actors were not originally credited in this movie at the start or at the end. Instead, four additional actors and their character names are credited in the inter-titles right before they appear on-screen.
    • Alternate versions
      In 1971, Killiam Films, Inc. copyrighted a restored and tinted edition with an original theatrical organ score by Lee Erwin and a running time of 67 minutes plus a minute for new additional credits.
    • Connections
      Edited into Jekyll & Canada (2009)

    John Barrymore at his best!
    Nearly everybody has seen the story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in one of the more modern versions, but nobody has ever portrayed it as successfully as John Barrymore did. This movie, a silent classic, has amazing special effects for its day. Specifically I refer to the metamorphosis of Dr. Jekyll. You will literally not recognize or believe that the same actor playing Dr. Jekyll is also playing Mr. Hyde. The make-up, the lighting, and Barrymore's excellent acting give you the feeling that this is truly a different, darker, more evil man. Berrymore completes the transition from clean-cut Doctor to dementedly violent madman so naturally that you almost forget it's not real. You have to see this! It'll still scare you after all these years!
