"This is definitely on my list of the greatest movies ever. I saw it in the theater and it was the first time I actually experienced hypnosis in cinema—a conscious hypnosis. It’s one of the mysteries of filmmaking for me—why does it work, and how does it work?—but to be honest I don’t want to look into it because I want it to stay a mystery. If I were running the Library of Congress I would make a 70 mm copy of this and put it in a nuclear shelter, just in case."

2013 | Drama
Season 2 of the New-York set modern-day reimagining of Sherlock Holmes (and Dr Watson), with more of the same types of murder mysteries as in the first series.

Obviously.

That's the entire point!

Here, however, Joan is no longer Sherlock's sober companion but is now his protege, working alongside him to solve the cases they encounter whilst consulting with the NYPD.

For myself, the best episodes - I felt - where those with the always entertaining Sean Pertwee, although I wasn't so enamoured of those with Mycroft Holmes (Rhys Ifans) and the Dr Watson romance going on!

Ok for Whodunit fans
I love Murder Mysteries and a fan of Agatha Christie stories. I've not seen a film or Tv adaptation of this cover of the "Hallowe'en Party" story. It's different with the Ghost and spiritual angle on proceedings. A nice setting in a creepy house in Venice. The summing up seemed to come rather abruptly and a couple of things not really that well explained as to how they were worked out. There's not much for viewers to go by to work it out. One for Whodunit fans mainly.
