SHERLOCK HOLMES - THE WOMAN IN GREEN(1945)
In the set: 100 Greatest Mystery Classics
While very subtle in its being in the 1940s, this is
none-the-less another film of Sherlock Holmes out
of time! The good thing is that it's not easily noticeable!
The only thing that gives it away is the automobiles
being used! That being said, this is a pretty good
movie, again pitting Holmes and Watson against
the cunning Moriarty(just how many times can this
guy die!?!)! A good movie, with great acting again
by Rathbone and Bruce!! B+
A review from Amazon.com:
Yes, after having seen Lionel Atwill and George
Zucco step up to the plate as the nefarious master
criminal Moriarty, I can safely say that Henry Daniell
brings the most to the role. ....
As slight as the story line may be (hypnotized men
of means/rank are made to believe they committed
murder and then are blackmailed), I must recommend
you study the acting very carefully. Rathbone (Holmes),
Bruce (Watson) and Daniell (Moriarty) are really doing
an awful lot in the way of characterization. I love
how Rathbone just hides a smile when he looks at
the dunderheadings of Bruce.... These men are
real pros, imbuing the scene with real tension.
Daniell is particularly good, when his mouth drawn
up grimly as he spars verbally with Rathbone. ...
I enjoyed "The Woman in Green" much more than
I had expected to, thanks to the first-rate acting.
Nice to know that some childhood favorites still hold
up when you see them years later! - Linda McDonnell "TutorGal"
