    The barman in the train scenes is Clarence Muse. He does a lot more with that tiny role than most actors could. Muse, a law-school dropout, became an actor, singer, director and songwriter. His best known song is "When It;s Sleepy Time Down South". His final appearance was in a film released on his 90th birthday -- the day after his death.

      Rathbone's friendship with Bruce was just as real and deep as Holme's and Watson's fictional relationship. They worked together on radio for several years and stayed friends for life.

    • @TrueSonOfOdin
      @TrueSonOfOdin Pƙed 2 lety +10

      Rathbone and Bruce were both World War 1 veterans - Bruce permanently wounded and Rathbone was refused when he tried to re-enlist at the start of WW2. (He was more valuable to Britain in these films. Note the admiration of the Capitol quoting Churchill in the closing scene of this one.)
      Sherlock Holmes was deductively brilliant, but often Watson had some seemingly irrelevant impressionistic - inductive - observation that helped clinch Holmes' deduction.
      More could have been made of that, with a shot of Watson then having a sly, satisfied expression in his eyes.

    "They don't make them like that anymore!" I know we've all heard that expression before but it's certainly true of these great Rathbone/Bruce movies. Love the Churchill quote at the end too. And for those of you who don't know, this pair also did a long-running Sherlock Holmes radio series too, which you can hear online. Nobody ever did Holmes better!

      ... and it was called, "The Tale of the Giant Rat of Sumatra" and the storyline was about a Sherlock Holmes' Adventure. Lo and behold, Firesign Theatre actually based the title on Dr. Watson's "Tale of the Giant Rat of Sumatra" from this movie, "Pursuit to Algiers!" I loved the Firesign theater's portrayal of Holmes and to know that the title actually came from a movie was quite astonishing.

    I love these movies and especially the underlying patriotism towards the war effort. Many of these movies - like this one released in 1943 - were made during WW 2 - when the fate of the world was still unknown (The Germans did not surrender until May 1945). These movies helped to provide morale for the greater notion of Good versus Evil. Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce - no one else can ever match them.

Although not Sherlock, there are 100's of 1930-1950 movies called "film noir". B&W mysteries many of which are outstanding. Lists are on line. Some I like are "Saboteur", not Sabotage-not as good, "Shadow of a Doubt", "Rope", "Lost Weekend", "Dark Victory"-best Bette Davis movie ever with future president Reagan in a small part. You will cry! I have no doubt! "The Stranger" w/ Orson Welles, scary, but you don't know why! I urge you to find those I have listed esp. SABOTEUR-great spy story and DARK VICTORY-real tear jerker.
