  Jekyll's full statement was written by him as Jekyll before the last of the drugs ran out. Like come on man, it's written explicitly in the book.

  I just read the book and it was great. I like how Jekyll and Hyde are not revealed to be the same until the very end and that Hyde wasn’t so much a separate personality but Jekyll, albeit without any inhibitions. So the original novel is practically a deconstruction of every single movie inspired by it.

  I've read that book. In the final chapter Dr. Jekyll was still in Jekyll form when he was writing his confession. I believe he had just finished writing it when Mr. Utterson and his cousin saw him sitting at the window. I always believed that Jekyll had always had a wild streak in him. But he had to repress it because of Victorian society. Only then as Hyde he felt free to be wicked!

  Great book. Possibly greatest plot twist ever written.

  Contrary to how it’s spelled, the Scottish surname Jekyll is actually pronounced “JEE-kyll.” So far, the 1931 version (featuring Fredric March’s Academy Award-winning performance) is the only one where it’s pronounced correctly

  I hate the fact that pop culture had spoiled the plot for me. Smh

  Jekyl does refer in the first person a lot, to show that there is no two, it’s not just black and white but gray. They are both one, Hyde just represents the shadow. The repressed thoughts and qualities we deem unfit to present to the world. But even if they may seem as good and evil, there becomes a mix in it. Jekyll wakes up as Hyde to show there is no desperate entities. He has always had Hyde. And the evil was beginning to overshadow the good because jekyl himself was selfish to disguise himself just to go and indulge in his dark desires.

  I&apos;ve always been a fan of both the author and book!<br>I was aware of R L Stevenson&apos;s illness and other issues. However, you&apos;re profile of the author was still both entertaining and eye opening!<br>Solidly produced video!
