A look at how the 1920 Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde reshaped Stevenson through Wildean decadence, silent-era psychology, and a touch of early cinematic chaos. A century later, its strange DNA still echoes through every misbehaving Victorian monster on screen.

State’s Attorney is a 1932 melodrama. John Barrymore is a hotshot lawyer who defends gangsters and a likeable streetwalker with whom he falls in love. There’s plenty of pre-code content. An enjoyable mix of courtroom drama, humour and romance.

“Twentieth Century” (1934) 2/4 - It’s got all the right elements, but the telling causes this #CaroleLombard and #JohnBarrymore prototype #screwball comedy to drag. The scenes with #Lombard and #Barrymore trying to out-theatre the other are insanely fun even if #Barrymore feels like he is more acting than ‘reacting’. From a writing standpoint, it’s interesting to stack against #Hecht, #MacArthur, and #Hawks’s better known film, “His Girlfriend Friday” (4/4), which never fails to dazzle.
