  • Summary

  • We take things in a different direction today with our second Special Episode in the Adventures in Compliance podcast. Today, I am thrilled to bring back Adam Graham for a short two-part special series where we begin to review some of the movie representations of Sherlock Holmes. I met Adam Graham at PodFest Expo 2024 and he is a huge old time mystery radio show aficionado, including of course, Sherlock Holmes. Today, we begin with a look at the first Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce Holmes adventures, which is also the second of two productions by Universal Pictures, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. In this episode, Tom and Adam take a deep dive into the second collaboration of Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce in Universal Pictures' 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes,' celebrated for its captivating mix of music, detective work, and a menacing Moriarity played by George Zucco. The film, set in the authentic era of Holmes, showcases superb performances by its lead actors. Notably, it features clever screenwriting that captivates viewers with a complex plot involving a historical murder sparked by Moriarty's cunning strategies. Furthermore, the episode highlights the film's impact on later Holmes adaptations in radio and film. They also discuss the exemplary roles of Rathbone and Bruce, particularly in the comedic and action scenes, and praise the versatile talents of the cast, including Ida Lupino. The episode concludes with information about the 15th anniversary of the Great Detectives of Old Time Radio show, inviting listeners to explore past episodes and appreciate the timeless allure of classic detective stories.
