Mary Reilly

It's tribute time!! And this one is for Mary Reilly starring Julia Roberts and John Malkovich. Yes, a movie based on a book that was based on the original book Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. A dark classic that was given a twist.
The story is about a young servant girl in the house of Dr. Jekyll who is a witness to the struggle between her master and his 'assistant' Edward Hyde.
Though we are all familiar with the story of Jekyll and Hyde, you are enthralled by the relationship between the Doctor and the sweet servant girl, who Julia Roberts portrays to perfection. And John Malkovich playing the dual role of Jekyll and Hyde, wonderful! And Glen Close adds some magic to her role as Mrs. Farraday, the head Madame in a whorehouse.
A wonderful dark tale that has a little romance and a little spice to a classic book. All I can say is if your a Julia Roberts fan or a John Malkovich fan, you have got to see this. I gots it on me shelf and it never gets old.
