Most every Sunday as a teenager I spent a couple of hours every morning watching old b&w movies. Sherlock Holmes, starring Basil Rathbone, was one of many.Last week I went to the library (I love the library!), and signed out a bunch of movies, one of which was Sherlock Holmes Faces Death. A good thing about the rainy, cold weather we've been having is it makes me want to curl up and watch a movie. I don't feel guilty for being inside as I'm sometimes prone to feeling.
So Sunday night I plop my blow up bed mattress on the floor, grab some wooly blankets and a few pillows and tuck in for a night of movies. Sherlock was first. The movie starts and what's this? There's a bloody commentary with this movie??! Ah come on! I contemplate getting up from my warm den and out of laziness decide to give it a chance. What I discover is the usefulness of this commentary. Check it out. You know sometimes when watching a movie you don't quite make out what a character just did, or understand exactly what just happened? Well this voice helps you with that. Instead of having to ask the person next to you, "What time did the clock read?" And they say, "I dunno." The voice tells you! It's really very helpful by not leaving you in the dust and it doesn't distract you from your viewing pleasure as I thought it would.
Needless to say by the end of the movie Holmes faced and conquered death as only he can.
If anyone has any favourite old movies let me know! I may not have seen it yet.
