Reseña del editor:

Covering all of Holmes’ 300-plus film appearances, this latest edition of the most complete filmography ever published casts new light on the best-known Holmes performances and introduces many less familiar Sherlocks too?including John Cleese, Charlton Heston, and Roger Moore

 

Sherlock Holmes has appeared on screen more times than any other fictional character. Created just before the birth of cinema, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous detective has drawn moviegoers across the world, and this guide covers more than a century's worth of his exploits on film and television. This includes films from the silent era through the Basil Rathbone movies of the 1940s; films from France, Japan, Russia, Germany, and Italy; the films of Hammer Studios in the UK and Roger Corman in the U.S.; Billy Wilder’s 1970 film, Private Life of Sherlock Holmes; and many more. Television versions of Sherlock Holmes are also covered, including one directed by Steven Spielberg. Newly updated and with added material about Holmes productions from every part of the globe as well as a guide to the original stories, this guide is a testament to the enduring power of Conan Doyle’s celebrated creation.
