Stylish camerawork, innovative special effects, and plenty of startling pre-Code touches make this the definitive screen adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s gothic classic, directed with typical panache by Rouben Mamoulian. criterionchannel.com/dr-jeky…

Remembering the brilliant comedienne Carole Lombard on her birthday. Gone too soon. She was wonderful as Maria Tura in Ernst Lubitsch's masterpiece To be or not to be. #carolelombard #happybirthday #oldhollywood #tobeornottobe #lubitsch #alejandromogolloart
