It's such an old film that I'm pretty sure a quick google will find it on youtube or dailymotion or a number of those sites.

Possibly. I have the 1939 version starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce in a 14-DVD edition of all of the Sherlock Holmes film starring that iconic duo. I believe I've also seen the 1959 Lee / Cushing version ...

Yikes! That story has been filmed or adapted (for large screen and small) dozens of times in several languages - interestingly the first films being German silent films from between 1914 and 1920.

Lee/Cushing is a classic pairing. They did so many great movies together.

Lee also had roles in three German films based on the crime novels of Edgar Wallace, in 1961, 1962 and 1966. Lee didn't have to be synchronized, as he spoke German fluently and without accent (or at least very little).

I saw that at the theater. Funny movie.

Wait -- a beer? 🤔

OK -- try not to get too crazy! 😂

Well yeah, maybe more than one beer ☺️☺️☺️. It was a really good movie, I saw once but it's been a while.

I watched this Soviet-era fantasy film from 1939 today. It's actually pretty entertaining;

English captions available.

I found this favorite episode on youtube. Along with the usual assortment of English eccentrics, they take on Batman! 😁

Watching what's probably one of my most favorite movies ever

Good morning

At this very moment, PJ's Fellowship of the Ring, Extended Edition. I intended to watch all 3, head to tail.

 

[Rivendell_librarian]

Moon starring Sam Rockwell

I just thought this was a neat no frills sci-fi with a great score

 

[Ealdwyn]

I've just spent some quality time watching these

Feeling a little peckish now.... 😋

4 minutes of phone booth insanity.

Favorite absurdist moment: Vernon Dent says "You stupid idiot! You ruined my cake!"

 

[Rivendell_librarian]

Epic real life drama
Qualifier Raducanu wins US Open tennis

I woke up in the middle of the night, and watched this:

Don't ask me why. Or why I'm posting it -- I doubt anyone here would be interested.

(Except Hisoka Morrow, of course. 😁)
