Summary

I have always loved the classic Universal monster movies from the 1930’s. This month I am exploring one movie each week to mine it for leadership and compliance lessons. For our final entry in this short series on Popcorn and Compliance, I look at the 1931 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, starring Fredric March, who plays a possessed doctor who tests his new formula that can unleash people's inner demons. The film is an adaptation of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, the 1886 Robert Louis Stevenson tale of a man who takes a potion which turns him from a mild-mannered man of science into a homicidal maniac. The film was a critical and commercial success upon its release. Nominated for three Academy Awards, March won the award for Best Actor. We consider some of the lessons for the compliance professional around moral licensing and ego depletion and time of day in a risk management regime.
