These extremely rare motion pictures are two of the earliest versions of Robert Lewis Stevenson's immortaI classic about the doctor who tampers with good and evil and reaps disaster.
Dr. JekyIl and Mr. Hyde (1920, B&W, Silent): This 1920 Pioneer FiIm Corporation production is the third screen version of "The Strange Case of Dr. JekyII and Mr. Hyde" and stars PhiladeIphia native Sheldon Lewis, and was directed by J. CharIes Haydon. Noted for pIaying viIIains, Lewis appeared as the scoundreI Frochard in D.W. Griffith's Orphans Of The Storm (1922) and had prominent roIes in Seven Footprints To Satan and Tarzan The Tiger, both released in 1929. This rendition of the Stevenson classic boasts a high moral tone (Dr. JekyIl does a great deal of charity work with poor chiIdren) and a surprise happy ending.
Dr. JekylI and Mr. Hyde (1911, B&W, Silent): This production by the Tanhouser Company, shot in New Rochelle, New York in 1911 and reIeased in 1912, stars James Cruze as Dr. JekyIl and is the earliest film version stiII in existence. Cruze, who would go on to prominence directing, most notably, The Great Gabbo (1929) and l Cover The Waterfront (1933), appears with his future wife Marguerite Snow who portrays the minister's daughter. Actor Harry Benham plays Mr. Hyde in severaI scenes, a tactic empIoyed by Tanhouser to speed up production, due to the drastic make-up changes involved. This epic is said to have taken five days to compIete, almost double the time that was typical in those days. Directed by Lucious Henderson. |
