The classic chase has begun: Holmes versus Moriarty!
Released in 1942, Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon is one of the most beloved Holmes films of all time, placing Arthur Conan Doyle's master detective in the midst of World War II, where the safety of the entire world is at stake.
Basil Rathbone gives perhaps his finest performance as the sharp-witted Holmes in this film, alongside his loyal Dr. Watson ( Nigel Bruce ) and the detective's arch-nemesis, the diabolical Professor Moriarty ( Lionel Atwill ).
