My Friend, Dr. Jekyll (Italian: Il mio amico Jekyll), is a 1960 Italian comedy film directed by Marino Girolami. It is a parody of the Robert Louis Stevenson's 1886 novella Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.^[1]

The film deals with the concept of a mind swap. A professor uses a mind swap technique to transfer his own mind to the body of a tutor. A later attempt to return the body to its original owner results in the professor's mind inhabiting the body of a monkey.
