This adaptation of the novel is my absolute favorite. It was made pre-code, so that makes it even more fun to watch!

I agree. This is an outright classic. Growing up, it was never shown on TV in my area. Even the 1941 Spencer Tracy version was only on a couple times. The one I was most familiar with back in the '60s was a television adaption with Jack Palance which I recall being quite good. And now I haven't seen that since then.

Anyhow, getting back to the Fredric March version, I had seen pictures from it in various monster magazines growing up and always wanted to see the film. I finally got to view it after buying the DVD a few years back. It is amazing - that first transformation scene is especially impressive. March deservedly won best actor for his portrayal. I'm going to have to pull the DVD out again soon.

I need to see if the library here at school has this movie. I missed it on TV last Tuesday thanks to satellite television.

I finally got to see this movie! I downloaded the video player on veoh.com and I was able to watch it! It was wicked amazing as always. Fredric March was hot and Mr. Hyde was kind of cute.

I'm an English major, so I like to over-analyze every movie I see and every book I read. I strongly believe that if this were not an experiment, and Mr. Hyde were a separate person, that he would not be so evil, because really, all this is is an experiment by Jekyll to discover his bad side, and Hyde is being controlled by Jekyll to do evil things.

I should watch this again soon. The DVD also has the Spencer Tracy film on the flip side. Both are great films, but the March version is definitely tops!
