The Adventure Of Sherlock Holmes’ Smarter Brother
Baker Street was never like this! Gene Wilder followed up his star turn in Young Frankenstein by writing, directing and starring in this well-researched period comedy featuring the great detective’s younger, envious brother, who is overmatched (to say the least) by Leo McKern’s Moriarty. Lots of hat-tips to Arthur Conan Doyle throughout for devout Holmes fans, but it’s a sublimely silly movie on its own. Albert Finney has a cameo dissing opera singers.
