  • "Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde: Dr. Jekyll, an idealistic London doctor, has a weakness for experiments which take him to the boundaries of human consciousness and experience. When Sir George Carew, father of the girl Jekyll loves, accuses him of being afraid of temptation, he finds a drug which allows him to separate the evil side of his personality from the good; as Edward Hyde, he embarks upon a career of crime ; Sherlock Holmes: With his faithful assistant, Dr. Watson, Holmes comes face to face with arch criminal Professor Moriarty. Moriarty is causing trouble for Prince Alexis, and Holmes craftily outwits the villain ; The Beloved Rogue: Francois Villon, in his lifetime the most renowned poet in France, is also a prankster, an occasional criminal, and an ardent patriot, he spoils the evil plots of the Duke of Burgundy and even the King of France ; Tempest: In the final days of Czarist Russia, a peasant is raised from the ranks to Lieutenant. He falls in love with a princess, who spurns him. When he is caught in her room, he is stripped of his rank and thrown into prison. Then the Revolution comes and the tables are turned."
