    This movie was definitely ahead of its time in 1931, and after watching the movie, I felt that the makeup technology of this film was too powerful. This story is also quite a classic story, but the doctor himself did not struggle twice. To be honest, I am disappointed, but The film has almost no soundtrack and feels a little boring. In terms of performance, Madge's Hyde is definitely a big highlight. It is almost impossible to see that he played it alone, and the dead female supporting role is...

    These early films with the shadow of psychoanalysis were not serious, but they were really romantic. After the incarnation of the doctor, the first sentence turned out to be "Finally free", madness and civilization. The beginning is subjective + long shot, the classic face-changing one-shot to the end, the early earth method is too interesting: "The red liquid is painted on the protagonist's eye socket, and then turns blue. The photographer uses red and blue film to shoot separately to achieve...

    6/10. Jekyll didn't want to be controlled by Hyde, he wanted to accept his distorted personality in a temporary capacity, but when Jekyll forced his girlfriend to smile and sing with difficulty, his beautiful personality couldn't continue to exist, and the dual personality actually reflected The conflict between two classes: the respectable upper class lives only for others to see, bullying dancers in front of the mirror or even killing people for fun is the unrestrained lower class identity,...

    Best version ever! The use of lens language is skillful and superb, long lens, split screen, gradient, screen switching and close-up of the gods! The text is even more painstaking, and many golden sentences of this film are still used in the 41-year remake. The theme is profound, the primitive animalistic evil overcomes the restrained rational human nature. Today, most of it is a split personality, but the transformation scene can be described as ground-breaking and shocking in the...

    It is more substantial and complete than the 1920 version, and the heroine corresponding to Mr. Hyde's dark side also has more space. I watched the subjective long shot back and forth many times at the beginning, and it was very exciting. It's a pity that this version of Mr. Hyde looks like a hairy monkey. Anyway, the 1920 version is a bit gothic, and the suicide ending in 1920 is undoubtedly much better than being beaten to death by the...

    FM is the one who I think restores Dr. Jekyll the most in several remakes so far. In addition to the first-person shooting method at the beginning, it is easier for the audience to empathize with the characters, until they can experience the tragic meaning of the ending to the greatest extent. In addition, the reason for Dr. Jekyll's choice to take the drug desperately is more reasonable than other versions. The long-term oppression of etiquette on nature can be collapsed instantly with the...

    [Film Review] Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931) 8.0/10

    This dichotomous horror cinema progenitor which ripsnortinglydelves into the sordid underside of human psyche, is directed by the Hollywood's maverick innovatorRouben Mamoulian and made just shy of the scourge of Production Code.

    From its unorthodox opening sequences, shot with anovoid...

    The soul is separated from the body but pinned in it

    Human beings always have a cognitive dualistic paradox for themselves. On the one hand, it is civilized but repressed; on the other hand, it is barbaric but real. What is true human beings, what is true freedom, can't say how to say. The tragedy of the film is that although the duality of the soul...
