Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes
Of course, the fact that Moriarty was older than Holmes, so he would have been pushing 100 in the early 1940s, while Sherlock Holmes would have been in his eighties was completely lost on the producers of the 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. Samkvæmt Internet Movie Database (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 is still enjoyable. Það liggur um 68 mínútur.
