The Sherlock Holmes Collection 1 DVD

Seinen Platz in der Weltliteratur verdankt Sir Arthur Conan Doyale ganz allein seinen Kurzgeschichten, in denen er seine Meisterdetektiv Sherlock Holmes mit Dr. Watson auf Verbrecherjagd schickt. Eine Auswahl von 10 Klassikern, die man sich immer wieder gerne anschaut.

Producer Sheldon Reynolds has avoided the customary cliches that seem inevitable to any treatment of the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stories and instead has concentrated on straight direction work that brings the fascination back to watching Holmes solve a case. Reynolds, who wrote as well as produced, has cast the series well. Ronald Howard (son of the late Leslie) makes an excellent Holmes. He is got the lean features one expects in the role, plus a commanding voice and an alert presence. H. Marion Crawford is something new in a Dr. Watson, a commonplace type but by no means a buffoon. Archie Dunca is excellent as the blustering Inspector Lestrade. This entire series moves at a quick and entertaining pace, and the production values are excellent. A must for all mystery connoisseurs.
