Other worldly.

[milespark1]

[863BRITT]

@milespark1 thats how movies were way back then, they used the music to express the emotion.

I'll be seeing this in a theater in a couple of days. Never watched a silent film before and looked this up out of curiousity. This doesn't look like the "terrible film" I was expecting, it actually held my interest. Perhaps I'll have a little bit more appreciation for the classics after this.

[teresaponziani]

Thanks for posting this great classic!!!!

[8BitROB]

I love Public Domain.

[lipoicacid]

@2:36 He must be a christian =D

[christiangabrielw78]

holly shit is the best quality i ever seen before!!!

[Maladaahn]

I love this story and the history of!

I'm developing a series of shorts for the Story Beyond The Still Contest, inspired by each chapter of the novel, based on my interpretation of duality, guilt and the horrors of modern psychiatric medicine.

If interested, take a look at my page. The latest installment, Chapter 3, is up there now, as well as the first 2 chapters. Working on Chapter 4 right now.

[IIxWOLFxII]

I loooooove these old films where you have to read, it's classic, it's almost like reading an interactive book LoL Oh, how i love old films!

[graygoose26]

why do you think they used the written story in star wars - you are first taught to look at pictures and then read what they depict.......................

[simprincess242]

i've always been interested in this movie, but I'd never really had a chance to see it or anything like that. <3

[LiquidGF]

haha with dialogue screens between the scenes... sweet :D a real old production... what a heritage...

[SiddallB]

Sheldon Lewis version?

[terHC]

I like this movie

[xkadie999x]

we have to watch this in english cause half my class is to lazy to read a short story xx

[christyuffx]

same

[eirino0369]

just for not being dissapoint again...does this version respects the book or is it another bad adaptation?

[xkadie999x]

fairly simalar but cause of resources and stuff not being available in the 1920's its kinda different xx

[jimmyhelo1]

it dont look verry well !! :C

do you know to draw the house of mr.hyde ?

bye

[cadiieS]

Oh shit the book is awesome

but this is boring i'm sorry :/

[LisaBreeBranch]

i agree this is boring, that's why hollywood creates remakes! :D

[mjZstargirl]

no. no. hollywood creates remakes because they can't think of great stories more than once a year.

[LisaBreeBranch]

oh come on it's not THAT hard to think of a story, even if it's not original ¬¬

hollywood creates remakes because not everyone enjoys silent movies. plus remaking makes the classics more famous because people will be interested in the old stuff. =P haha i win

[mjZstargirl]

No trust me.

Most of the world in any film industry stems from already created ideas from other media or the same media.

And now, as time moves on...entertainment is not only losing the great people who pioneered some of the best aspects of it but it is also losing substance. And substance, my dear, is probably the most important thing in any piece of work.

[LisaBreeBranch]

you're not right or wrong ''my dear''. that's your opinion if you don't like the movies of today. but a lot of people still love them and don't much care for the old stuff. the classics are good for historic value. that's it :))

[mjZstargirl]

I am very much right. :)

[ only arguing because I honestly have nothing better to do then debate with people who I not only have no face for but not even a real name --- very sincerely]]

The new stuff is crap.

More than 80 percent of it.

Actually. 90 percent of it is.

I'd even say ONLY 3% of it might be ... "good"

but most things of this decade suck big time.

after the 90s good cinema seems to have died out.

very few examples can be given of it in the 2000s.

[LisaBreeBranch]

well i'm going to guess you're old and only like old stuff. i can relate because i hate the new tv shows they have now compared to ones i've seen when i was little. i'm not going to continue this anymore. bye bye :))

[mjZstargirl]

Actually I'm not so old in age. In intellect, yes. :):

14 ;)

[Apocalymon]

@mjZstargirl most of the things from this decade that sucked have been filtered w/ time.

[zannaallen]

@mjZstargirl I used to be of your frame of mind but now I don't think things are that straight forward. For one thing, over time the better forms of entertainment(whether it be film or music etc) are sifted through all the other crap that floated around at that time. There were plenty of shoddy films pre 2000s, they're just a vague memory now because they've been superseded by the stuff of quality. So I think we'll have to wait another decade to fully appreciate the lesser known films of today.

[CheetahFoxx]

No, it isn't hard to think of a good story, but apparently it's too much brain power for Hollywood. Case examples: The Happening. Lets make a film where for some reason, any will do, everyone in is killing themselves in horrible ways; that'll get lots of blood on the screen. Gone in 60 Seconds: Put as many fancy cars on screen as u can and try to throw a sex scene into there too. Snake on a Plane (title says it all). the Saw series: Apparently watching people mutilate themselves never gets old.

[LisaBreeBranch]

i'm pretty sure you couldn't come with anything better yourself. so quit talking out of your ass noob

btw the happening was an eerie movie. :)

bye bye

[eirino0369]

Im with you the book is awesome...my favorite one, but movie adaption are....a waste of time. Good as movies and bad as adaptations.

[xxcybergirlxx]

geh. i have to do a presentation on this. and i cant make it boring. how am i supposed to do that? -___-.

gosh, and its for my formative marks. PMR, PMR i hate chu.

[eirino0369]

thanx for uploading

[SSickRR]

thank you so much! :)

[sky3nabilla]

yeah its true . we study this novel in mlaysia . I dont realy understand what's the story is about . help me please .

[lewis4xbox]

it is about a respected dr.. who creates a formula which brings out the beastly side of humans. it closely relates to the theory of darwins evolution, how we may of decended from apes.. this novel at the time it was written was frowned upon by most.... as it contadicted religeous practises and beleives. basically stevenson wants to put across the point that in each of us is still evil and we can still behave like 'apes'

[kalbidi]

Heh. PMR! :D Which school do you go to?

[Rockeymaru]

the most problematic school in Melaka. Sekolah Menengah Tun Tuah T.T

[v3mizan]

i wan the real dr jekky

[Rockeymaru]

hey, we study about this story in the form of novel in Malaysia as english literature subject !

i love the novel

[Raynemeister]

Lucky

[angelveent]

me too rockeymaru!

[095tube]

I studied it in Gothic literature Class and saw the film as well.

It was awesome!

[Rockeymaru]

yeah !

[kalbidi]

Me too!

[syaronie]

zzz..

[rhoNcypher]

wow the movie is old but wow

[blackmirror530]

I love the story AND(!) this film, but I am from Germany, so my English is not very good!

[4MaryAnna]

that's what's great about silent films is you don't really need to speak the language,and at least you speak some english,whereas I don't speak any german.

[FUSSELMUSGESICHT]

wooow, this film is very old! but í like it!! :)

[EmilyGreene1984]

I think this is a good film version of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" and I also love the pipe organ music. But what I find the most compelling about the story is that it has two powerful messages that can be used still in today's society. One: Don't mess around with things that man was never supposed to tamper with. And second, If you want to truly get rid of your sinful (evil) nature, God can fix you, not other people, drugs, or (as is the case in this story) dealing with genetics.

[izmama1980]

isnt dr jekkyl and mr hyde from 1932?

[nepychu798465132]

1920, it is written

[meesterfonnyboy]

This is the 1920 (silent) version with John Barrymore; the 1932 (sound) version starred Fredric March in a Oscar-winning performance.

[DNchap1417]

The movies, and the 1886 novel they're based upon are awesome! My advice: STAY away from the INFAMOUS NES game! It is, in my opinion, the worst game ever made!

[ChaoticDisorderFuck]

Eat Hyde's cock!

[nobodysperfect06]

also there was a German version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in 1920, directed by F.W. Murnau(the guy who directed Nosferatu in 1922), but unfortuneately this film is lost, and whats interesting about that film is that it featured Bela Lugosi as the butler

[Jendellyn]

'Der Januskopf', to be exact. Quite a free adaptation of the story starring Conrad Veidt. It is a pity we will never have the opportunity to watch it...

[095tube]

Yes a lot of old films and books seem to have been destroy around that time (dont remember why but yes I've heard of this), which is sad and unfortunate. Nosferatu was lucky so survive, glad it did tho.

[nobodysperfect06]

which is the best version of this to buy?

[BethSwe]

i have to say, it's really fasinating! i'm very glad you put this up!

[Tautriadelta]

This film is a rare chance to see the beautiful Martha Mansfield, a former Ziegfeld Follies star. Sadly, she died in a tragic accident in 1923, being fatally burned when her dress was inadvertently set on fire. You can also see her in THE SILENT COMMAND, co-starring Bela Lugosi.

[TaylorMaid01234]

lol her dress got caught on fire i would like to see that

[jjjjjjjjjjjggwwej]

you barbaric cunt

[ChaoticDisorderFuck]

Me too <3 :D

[nobodysperfect06]

I still need to see this sometime soon, but so far, the 1932 film with Fredric March is my favorite

[filmaddict818]

this one is good, but the 1932 one was the best because of its special effects.

[nobodysperfect06]

I agree, but do recommend that I should see this version one day?, which is the best DVD version of this film?

[Zechsz]

wow congratulations to whoever put in the effort of tracking this down and putting it on youtube, awesome, its my first time watching footage of the strange case of dr. jekyll and mr. hyde novel, in movie form but its still kinda awesome, but no matter how awesome it may be, it'll never be as awesome as i pictured it in my mind when i read the novel for the first time, bye!

[lexhotone718]

this is just so try I never believed that a person is 100% good because that shit is a lie! there is good and evil inside all of us

[pinkcheese000]

*evil laugh*

[firewalker117]

i wonder if youtube will remove this for copywrite reasons.. lol

[PTOPedro]

it's in public domain, youtube can't take it down.

[xSeaAbove93x]
