Dr. Henry Jekyll believes that there are two distinct sides to men - a good and an evil side. He believes that by separating the two, man can become liberated. He succeeds in his experiments with chemicals to accomplish this and transforms into Hyde to commit horrendous crimes. When he discontinues use of the drug, it is already too late.
Editor's Verdict
"The plot of 'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' is entirely driven by scientific experimentation, transformation, and horror, with no discernible connection to the Christmas season. The detected 'Holiday Release' is a distribution fact, not a narrative element, and the 'Belief/Faith' detected likely refers to Jekyll's belief in his science, not traditional Christmas faith."
