Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde is a 1995 British-American comedy film starring Tim Daly, Sean Young and Lysette Anthony. The film is based on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic horror novel Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The story takes place in modern times and concerns a bumbling, young chemist who tampers with his great-grandfather's formula, accidentally transforming himself into a beautiful but psychotic businesswoman who is hellbent on taking over his life. Richard Jacks is a perfumer fed up working at a major fragrance company, where he is the butt of the joke with much of his fellow... employees. After his great grandfather dies, Jacks attends the will reading and whilst everyone else receives houses, money and boats, Jacks receives a bunch of science notes, something he is far from happy with. He discovers that his ancestor was in fact Dr. Henry Jekyll. Jacks becomes fascinated about the duality of man and starts performing experiments to refine the formula that separates good and evil. Realizing that his ancestor's formula increased male aggression, Jacks decides to add more estrogen to the mixture in the hope that it will prove less dangerous.
