I thought I would post something a little different for everyone today. I woke up early this morning, and the thick fog and misty atmosphere got me in the mood to watch a scary movie that evoked a forboding sense of our dark past or imagination. As some of you may know, I have been a big fan of vintage horrow flicks since I was a little kid. A while ago at Best Buy I picked up this amazing and really cheap dvd collection of fifty old horror movies dating from 1920 through the 1960s! So today I thoroughly enjoyed watching the classic 1920 silent film "Mr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" starring John Barrymore, the brilliant actor who was Drew's grandfather. Barrymore's performance as the charitable young doctor who transforms into a hideous fiend that roams the streets of London is really incredible and compelling to watch. This very early movie also starred the beautiful Nita Naldi, an American actress from New York, who played the young Italian dancer who Mr. Hyde seduces. If you would like to watch the whole film, which is only about an hour long, please click on this link: http://www.archive.org/details/DrJekyllandMrHyde You won't be disappointed!
