Sherlock Holmes i Washington (1943)

Sherlock Holmes i Washington (1943) is the third (nasc affiliate) of twelve Universal Picture productions of the Sherlock Holmes franchise. Basil Rathbone agus Nigel Bruce réalta mar Holmes agus Watson faoi seach i dhá scannán le haghaidh Fichiú hAois Fox-agus dhá cheann déag níos mó le haghaidh Pictiúir Uilíoch.

Tá an scannán a leagtar arís sna 1940idí. Holmes and Watson have traveled to Washington, D.C. to keep secret documents from falling into the hands of the Axis Powers. George Zucco returns as the oily Nazi villain Heinrich Hinkel. Marjorie Lord plays Nancy Partridge, Henry Daniell is William Easter and Thurston Hall plays Senator Henry Babcock.

Dar leis an Internet Movie Database (IMDB), Hall was born on May 10, 1882 in Boston, Massachusetts. Hall usually played a loud boss, authority or villain in films. He was Topper’s boss in the television series from the 1950s. Sa scannán seo, he played a loud Senator from the American South.

This film comes in at around 71 minutes. You can usually find it for free on YouTube. Zucco adds his typical villainous presence, while Rathbone gives his own unique interpretation to the role. I give it three out of five starts.
