So, this is a documentary where Ian Rankin, known for his detective novels, dives deep into the origins of 'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.' It’s not just a surface-level look, he really gets into the nitty-gritty of Robert Louis Stevenson's life and the dark themes of his story. The pacing is quite methodical, almost reflective, as Rankin interweaves personal anecdotes with historical context. I found the atmosphere to be moody and eerie, perfectly fitting for a tale that delves into the duality of human nature. The way they explore grave-robbing, drug use, and the gritty underbelly of Victorian society really adds depth. It’s a unique lens that makes you think about the story's relevance even today.
