The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1968)
produced by Dan Curtis

starring:
Jack Palance - Dr. Henry Jekyll and Mr. Edward Hyde
Denholm Elliott - Dr. George Devlin

You know the story. Dr. Henry Jekyll believes humans are half good and half evil and tries to seperate the evil to allow the better half to meet its full potential unfetered by unholsome appetites and desires.
Jack Palance does an excellent job as the timid-shy gentleman Dr. Henry Jekyll and the outgoing, aggressive Mr. Edward Hyde. This version is probably closest to Stevenson's original story. Although there is some slight difference in appearance between Jejyll abd Hyde the emphasis is on the differences in personality.
I rented "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" on a double-sided DVD with "Dan Curtis' Dracula". Search Netflix for just "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde".
