Having once again avoided criminal conviction, Professor Moriarity develops a murderous plan to “finish off” his last major nemesis, Sherlock Holmes, by making him fail to prevent the perfect crime. Does it involve a family curse, the crown jewels of England, or something else…
Forget the modern, brooding detective and embrace this brisk, theatrical version of the world's most famous sleuth. Basil Rathbone brings a sharp, kinetic energy to the role that turns a classic mystery into a propulsive race against Moriarty.
