So, as you may have guessed by my clueless reactions in class, I have seen NONE of the movies that we have discussed. On top of that, I can’t recall seeing any “monster” movies…..possibly but I’m probably just too old now to remember 🙂
What I can tell you though is that, so far, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde is one of my favorite stories. What appeals to me in this story is the fact that Dr. Jekyll is just like many of us. There are things that he wants to be able to do but because of his place in society he can’t. So he creates a way to be able to accomplish all of these “taboo” acts without anyone knowing that it is him. How many of us have said, “If I could just………” We all have things that we have thought about doing or have wanted to do, but have chosen not to because of what your parents, society, or even God might think. And I think that is what makes Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde my favorite so far……he is actually in each & every one of us.

This pic is my favorite! It represents both sides but in an inkblot version like the psychologists use. Very fitting!
