The Sherlock Mystery: The Movies And Shows VS The Original Stories

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Movies

The Sherlock Holmes Movies were a series of fourteen movies released between 1939 and 1946. British actors Basil Rathborn and Nigel Bruce played Holmes and Dr. John Watson.

IMDB says of the films, “Although the films from 20th Century Fox had large budgets, high production values and were set in the Victorian era, Universal Studios updated the films to have Holmes fighting the Nazis, and produced them as B pictures with lower budgets. Both Rathbone and Bruce continued their roles when the series changed studios, as did Mary Gordon, who played the recurring character Mrs. Hudson.”
