They do seem a bit dated all 13 film's are worn thin nowaday's,but what I do is put the video on and put headphones on and just listen to it as just an Audio drama which gives a whole new dimension as you notice more in the back ground than you ever have and appreciate the act skill's of Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce evenmore as with no picture's the connection as they go through the script is so smoothly play seem less,gentlemen to the end...

I agree that Basil Rathbone was the ultimate Sherlock Holmes. He looks exactly as I had pictured Holmes when I read the stories as a child. I appreciate Jeremy Brett’s performance and the absolute dedication that production had to Conan Doyle’s stories. But even though some of these movie plots are a bit hokey I never tire of them. I like how Rathbone looks as Holmes. His profile and build are perfect and those languid eyes when he plays the violin. Which he really could and did play. His every gesture and glance is Holmes. Which Jeremy Brett, God love him, over acted at times, and got shrill. Holmes was never shrill. I also, like many others love Rathbone and Bruce together, they seem to have a natural affection for each other or are just great actors. Yes Nigel Bruce plays Watson as a bungler, which he never was in the stories, but some how it works and I love it. Benedict Cumberbatch is a good actor, but that series lost sight of the feel of Holmes, even though they actually stole some bits of their absurd plots from these movies. I have the complete set of these movies and watch them again every few years or so and never tire of them I too grew up watching them in the 60s with my Dad when I was a teenager and I still love them. I even got my daughter addicted to Sherlock Holmes, although to her Jeremy Brett is the ultimate Holmes.

Quite a lovely girl playing Sheila, also something of a rocket scientist: Marjorie Riordan was "discovered" in Wisconsin in the early 1940s and became a studio contract player at Warner Brothers. During the 1950s she and another Warner Brothers player, Joyce Reynolds, decided that they found acting intellectually unsatisfying and the two of them returned to graduate school to study speech pathology. Riordan's focus in graduate school was the psycho-dynamics of stuttering which led her, in turn, to study clinical psychology. Throughout the late fifties and first couple of years of the sixties, she pursued both her careers as a clinical psychologist and as an actress, but then gave up acting altogether. While in graduate school, she met her husband Allan Schlaff, who was also a clinical psychologist. The two had a son, John Schlaff, who was born in 1959. Riordan succumbed to breast cancer in 1984.

Nigel Bruce is my favorite of the duo. He plays the fool brilliantly and he certainly was anything but. He could have been a model when he was young. He got machine gunned in the legs when in the trenches of WW1 and even after being medically discharged due to his wounds he reenlisted as a trainer for the rest of the war. Some people have incredibly colorful lives his was certainly one of them.

As for Robert Downey's Sherlock, it had nothing to do with Conan Doyle's stories. Basically a vulgar martial arts movie aimed at a Chinese audience. Rathbone's Sherlock fits the stories better than anyone else. He was perfect for the role.

Dear Feature Film, This is by far the best Rathbone Holmes I have seen, better even than The Hound. Steady pacing, the sub plot of the jewels and the girl, the tension and stupefying twist at the end. You could have knocked me over with a feather at that final twist, as they might have said. And Watson's singing! But Nigel Bruce was very much a part of showbiz in those days - they all had to be able to act, sing and dance. And the girl had a truly fabulous voice. Can't tell you how much I enjoyed this. Didn't have any popcorn at hand but went through two packets of crisps. Thank you so very much!

This movie is special in many ways. But the two things I like best about it are: - It's surprising and unexpected ending; and, - The fact that the Firesign Theater in 1974 made an album called, "The Tale of the Giant Rat of Sumatra." Now, this title was taken directly from the movie wherein Dr. Watson relates a Sherlock Holmes adventure to guests at a dinner party. In all these years, I never thought that the Firesign Theater album's title was taken from an actual Sherlock Holmes movie!
@itzakpoelzig330

Firesign Theater may have taken their album title from this movie, or they may have taken the phrase "giant rat of Sumatra" from the same place that this movie did: Arthur Conan Doyle. The giant rat of Sumatra is mentioned in the Sherlock Holmes story 'The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire'. The story of the rat is not told, but other authors have taken that evocative phrase and made their own works on the subject, pastiches, etc. It's unknown whether Doyle knew it or not, but there ARE giant rats in Sumatra. One species called the Large Sumatran Bamboo Rat can weight as much as 8.8 lbs, And in 2015 a fossil was found there of a rat estimated to have weighed about 11 lbs in life, or the size of a small dog.
