in the dual title role in Fleming’s Oscar-nominated film. <FONT
color=black><SPAN style="COLOR: black">In 1887 <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">London</st1:City></st1:place>, </SPAN></FONT>Dr. Henry Jekyll is a
socially upstanding physician whose unorthodox theories alarm his older
colleagues. Jekyll believes that each man has two selves, one good and one evil,
that can be separated through science, freeing the good so that it can triumph
and allowing the bad to “destroy itself in its own degradation.” <FONT
color=black><SPAN style="COLOR: black">Toiling in his lab, he develops a drug
which</SPAN></FONT> transforms him into the <FONT color=black><SPAN
style="COLOR: black">cruel </SPAN></FONT>and remorseless Edward
Hyde. Initially, Jekyll is able to dispense of Hyde whenever he
chooses. But as he repeatedly takes the potion, Hyde begins to dominate,
until he can no longer be controlled. Lana Turner co-stars as <FONT
color=black><SPAN style="COLOR: black">Jekyll’s</SPAN></FONT> <FONT
color=black><SPAN style="COLOR: black">loving, forgiving </SPAN></FONT>fiancée
and Ingrid Berman as a luckless barmaid pursued and abused by the <FONT

style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Georgia">Before the film, John Durant <FONT
color=black><SPAN style="COLOR: black">and Anne Harrington </SPAN></FONT>provide
a fascinating window into some of the scientific theories and debates of the era
in which Stevenson’s famously divided character was born. In the late 19th
century, man’s animal origins, as revealed by <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Darwin</st1:City></st1:place>, and the idea of degeneration (that
humanity could fall downwards on the evolutionary ladder as easily as it could
move upwards) had a strong hold on the Victorian imagination. It was a time when
physicians circulated a theory of a double brain, when dual personality and
other cases of mental illness were often attributed to brain hemisphere
imbalance, and when people anxiously wondered where the soul lived in relation
to the brain. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
