But the portrayal of Watson as an idiot and a buffoon was not at all true to the original character. The movies were entertaining, but the portrayal of Watson by Nigel Bruce was cringe inducing for fans of the books.

I'm not sure just what it is about a crime thriller set on a moving train, it's something I've never been able to put my finger on it, all i know is that there is something undeniably "relaxing" (for want of a better word) about these classic movies, they Never get old. Black & white movies by their very nature are so calming especially during the horrible wet & cold weather we are blessed with here in Britain, a nice warm fire, wrapped up in a fleece blanket and a classic black & white crime thriller/horror movie and you're guaranteed a warm & cosy hour of sheer entertainment. I have this fantastic Sherlock Holmes series of films starring the brilliant Basil Rathbone already on dvd but when i saw this on youtube i had to watch it as it's been a few years since I've seen these.

I remember sitting watching these with my dad as a kid, recorded on vhs and replayed over and over. Nowadays they take pride of place in a DVD box set. Amusing though how no one my own age seems to have even heard of these old films despite being so much better than any other rendition.

Do you feel better now that you’re clear on the matter? If you’re still not clear then I’d suggest that you read up on what indicators show what Film Noir actually is. It will be readily clear why these Rathbone Holmes films are not Noir. They’re not even what Conan Doyle would recognise as Holmes and Watson! They can be quite entertaining, which is how I see them, but no more.

@@richardking3206 Richard I will have to do more homework before I make a post about a movie on youtube next time. After looking at the definition of film noir I can see where I may have been erroneous in my characterization of that particular film. I do think that maybe one or two of the Sherlock Holmes films starring Mr. Rathbone could fall under the category of film noir, don't you, of am I still off base. Oh I apologize about the previous post it was rude and uncalled for. I'm sure you made your post with the best of intentions.

There's not a wasted moment in these Sherlock Holmes Mysteries of Rathbone and Bruce. In between an hour and seventy-five minutes everything you will need to see, hear and know comes at you at a quick and measured pace. I like that. Compact, spare and very lean yet these movies stand-up so well to time and remain entertaining after repeated viewings. They are very hard-wearing after a fashion.

These great movies were cast with many of the same supporting actors in multiple adventures. The math professor, the teapot thief, the conductor, the train attendant, the casket maker, all appeared in others. Pull up the cast lists and compare. Lot's of repeats. I guess when you've put together a compatible and versatile team, you go back to them when the studio calls for the next project.
