The Daily Grab (22): The Boer War

"I spoke this afternoon to Conan Doyle, he thinks something ought to be done about it, too."

...

"And who’s Conan Doyle?"

"The author chap sir, writes the Sherlock Holmes stories in The Strand Magazine."

"This Doyle fellow writes the Sherlock Holmes stories?"

"Yes sir, Conan Doyle. You must have seen his name."

"Never heard of him, but I’ve read every Sherlock Holmes story since they started in July ’91."

"Are you reading The Hound of the Baskervilles, sir?"

"Am I not! What’d you think of the end of the last installment?"

 

From the outstandingly lovely new Region B locked UK Blu-ray, released over there last week. This is one of the Technicolor films that was in greatest need of rescue and restoration. Marvelous work. Review tomorrow.
