1930년 시점에 선구적인 컬러 영화일 뿐만 아니라 영화적 표현도 혁신적이다. 무성영화와 흑백 영화, 그리고 영화 이전에영화의 역할을 하던 극에 대한 전통이 녹아들어 시대를 넘는 쿨함으로 탄생하다. 20세기 초반에도 예상 외로 컬러 영화가 꽤 많이 나왔지만 폴 화이트먼의 오케스트라의 비주얼한 퍼포먼스를 엮은 이 영화는 공황 직전 거슈윈의 음악으로 흐르는 낙관적인 태도와 모든 문화의 mix로서 미국이 중심이 되고있다는 자신감으로 가득차 있다.

Warren's Butler
The film was an unauthorized adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's novel The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but the source material went unrecognized by some of the German media due to changes in the characters' names. Released in 1920, this is one of Murnau's lost films. While the film itself does not survive, the scripts and related production notes do. Because the film is lost, its full length is unknown. Dr. Warren is the Dr. Jekyll character who changes into Mr. O'Connor, a parallel of Mr. Hyde. This transformation is brought about, not by experimentation with chemicals as in Stevenson's original, but through the supernatural agency of a bust of Janus (the Roman god of the doorway), which Warren / O'Connor purchases in the opening sequence as a gift for his sweetheart, Jane. When she refuses the gift, horrified, Warren / O'Connor is forced to keep the statuette himself...
