Does this door reflect the similar description of the 'door' in the novel? If yes, how? (Select A or B) If no, why not? (Select C or D).
- Yes, because one can tell that this is a home of wealth.
- Yes, because one can clearly see that it is brown with a brass door knocker, as described in the book.
- No, because the door in the book was described as a dark and dreary door where homeless people might strike a match against it.

- He stole it from Mr. Hyde.

00:33:11
How do the film makers help us to understand that this is Mr. Hyde?

00:42:33
So where does the young servant girl go after everyone else goes to bed at night?

____________________________

00:46:36
So the dark side starts to show even when he is NOT taking the serum! I think it is interesting here because this is how real life works! When we give in to our darker and more base desires and choices, it gets ever easier to make the choices that lead to ruin and destruction!

____________________________

00:51:32
So still at this point, what does Dr. Jekyll believe about his work?
- He believes that he can control the dark side.
- He believes that it is transferrable.
- He believes that the werewolf transformation can be controlled.
- None of the above.

00:52:22
Uh oh... what is Ned really saying here?
- He is trying to tell Dr. Jekyll that the real Mr. Hyde passed away at the asylum.
- He is trying to get Dr. Jekyll to allow him to date the new servant girl.
- He is trying to blackmail him and get more money.
- He is trying to get Dr. Jekyll use the werewolf serum on him so that he will never die.

00:55:32
How does this scene correspond with the book version?
- It is an accurate description of the same scene in the book version.
- It is not very similar because Hyde does not purposefully drop the girl to the ground.
- It is similar because the book discussed how the horses trampled over the girl.
- All of the above are true.

00:56:41
Are the people depicted here more concerned with the welfare of the child or their own greed?
- There own greed.
- The girl's welfare.
- The werewolf is about to attack now... he will explode with a roar out of the crowd!
- None of the above.

00:58:18
Anyone know what kind of birds these are? I think these are love birds but there is some imagery that one is supposed to consider with birds. For one, the birds might represent the boundary between life and death. For this scene, this would be appropriate.

When Hyde visits her mother he...
