- Considered by many Holmesians to be the best Sherlock Holmes movie ever made, Billy Wilder’s THE PRIVATE LIFE OF SHERLOCK HOLMES is both an affectionate parody, and a brilliant, melancholy celebration of Arthur Conan Doyle’s infamous detective.
Sherlock Holmes (Robert Stephens) and Dr. Watson (Colin Blakely), are tasked with locating the missing husband of a mysterious woman fished out of the River Thames. The course of their investigation leads them to Scotland and encounters with a group of monks, some dwarfs and even the Loch Ness Monster. Can Holmes and Watson crack the case?
Co-written by Wilder and I. A. L. Diamond (one of eleven screenplays they wrote together) and starring the late great Christopher Lee as Sherlock’s brother Mycroft, THE PRIVATE LIFE OF SHERLOCK HOLMES is one of the most underrated films in Billy Wilder’s filmography, and The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present the film for Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.
Great film by Billy Wilder & a great score & soundtrack by Miklos Rozsa.
I just found out about this Sherlock Holmes film. Love the parody.
You think it's a parody???
He actually plays the violin! Impressive!
Christopher Lee is one of the few actors to play Mycroft, as well as Sherlock Holmes. It's a rare film appearance without Lee wearing a hairpiece.
Excellent!
This film is a classic and is also the reason that whatever you believe there is now a very real monster at the bottom of the Loch! 🦕🧐
Robert Stephens played Sherlock Holmes his way, Jeremy Brett played Sherlock his way! Best friends in real life!
Sherlock Holmes wanted to remain a Bachelor all his life..
That is not the original trailer
So is he gay or not?
yes.
@@LP-lj9ig Ha, no.
@@bobbyjosson4663 The director/writer has said that was his intention...
@@LP-lj9ig I've read that book too, along with all his biographies and interviews. He said that was on angle he thought about but they changed their minds. Holmes antipathy towards women stems from the prologue of his Oxford University days when the woman he falls in live with turns out to be a prostitute. It was cut out if the film, along with two other mini stories. A real pity. Wilder;s last great masterpiece.
@@bobbyjosson4663 Wilder, made a lot of masterpieces, that's for sure. One of the greats.
