The Hound of the Baskervilles Reviews
This is the Quintessential Sherlock Holmes
All I can say is that Basil Rathbone was born to play Sherlock Holmes. While Conan-Doyle never gave us a complete visual interpretation of the great detective, one can only imagine the appearance and manner of the man from the writings of the author. In that instance the only view that comes to mind is Basil Rathbone. Additionally, Nigel Bruce fills out the team completely. This is the wonderful version of this story with Rathbone and Bruce, truly a must see. Also, if you catch the very end you will find that this is the only version of Sherlock Holmes, where the very end hints to Holmes' drug abuse, which was written of by Conan-Doyle.

Interesting adaptation, but book is by far superior
Not entirelly what I envisioned after reading the story. Parts of the story were taken out and some characters missing. The movie really zips through the entire story much to quickly while leaving out very valuable information. I recommend reading the story before purchase of this movie. I can't imagin how difficult it might be for someone to follow the clues and the storyline without reading the book.
