The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
its like the sharpest clearest picture, i couldn't believe it was from 68. also, just the weirdest, hippest way of filming, its realistic like its 1968 photo's happening right there, right now, infront of you, man
i don't know how to explain it, maybe that it's shot so simple that it becomes timeless and looks like it's a play that could might as well have been filmed in 2006 as in 1968,
and the camera is almost constantly in close ups, i like that. i like that-.
watching Jack Palance act is a real delight, (Denholm Elliott too, for that matter.) salty dialouge too.
this DVD is more like watching a play on stage than a movie on the screen,
kinda unusual. a real treat.
oh, by the way, i think i like dr. jekyll better than mr. hyde.
i'm standing at a little trainstation,
in the middle of the night,
see you standing there, with a long grown nose after all those lies,
this machine will soon ramble away,
and i hope i won't have to see that long nose again.
cho! cho!
"you used Hyde, didn't you? to do all the things you wouldn't. or couldn't do."
