80. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920)

This was directed by John S. Robertson, 42.
The pace is very slow and you'll have to wait a while before Mr Hyde appears.

Barrymore was foxy as usual.

John Barrymore (38) as Doctor Jekyll

Nita Naldi (25) danced her way straight into my heart.
She played Miss Gina, the Italian dancer

meet Mr. Hyde and his giant paws

Mr Hyde needed a cane, unlike Dr Jekyll.
The cane came to represent his darker side, serving as a bizarre phallic symbol.
He'd stroke girl's thighs with it and later on use the thing for mortal mayhem.

the cone head... gee-wiz

Brandon Hurst as Sir George Carew.
I hear Brandon plays a groovy part in The Man Who Laughs, which I'm yet to see.

menacingly handsome

Martha Mansfield (21) as Carew's daughter Millicent. Sadly she was to die three years later due to a freak accident.

60. Don Juan (1926)

I watched this primarily because I knew Nigel De Brulier would be in it. Little did I know that he didn't appear in the film until the last 20 minutes or so. But it was well worth the wait, because that lord truly delivered, he played a madman and really threw himself into it. What a beauty.

John George !!! He was so good in The Unknown

John Barrymore (44) played a double role, first as Don Juan's father (pictured here) and then as Don Juan

Philippe De Lacy (9) played Don Juan as a child

Mary Astor (20) played the leading lady, Adriana

Estelle Taylor (32) played Lucrezia Borgia.
She looked so much like a former girlfriend of mine that it was spooky

Finally !
Nigel (49) made an entrance

Don Juan wore some ill fitting gear
