Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes

Bien sûr, le fait que Moriarty était plus âgé que Holmes, de sorte qu'il aurait été poussée 100 au début des années 1940, tandis que Sherlock Holmes aurait été octogénaire a été complètement perdu sur les producteurs du film. Dr. Watson was also not a bungler in the stories.

Nigel Bruce was born on February 4, 1895 in Mexico to an English engineering father. Selon la base de données Internet Movie (IMDB), the Bruce family had been nobility since Charles I granted them the title of Baron.

He was wounded in World War I and wheel chair bound for a short time. He turned to acting and was “discovered” ten years later. He starred with Basil Rathbone in all fourteen Sherlock Holmes films that Rathbone played the title role. Watson is his most famous role.

Despite these facts, the film (affiliate link) is still enjoyable. It runs about 68 procès-verbal.
