Fairview Library
In a career that spanned five decades, Billy Wilder is considered one of the most brilliant and versatile filmmakers of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Join us for the final film in our retrospective of his brilliant career.
This unconventional look at the incomparable Sherlock Holmes is rife with subtext and sardonic wit provided by the writing team of Wilder and longtime collaborator I.A.L. Diamond.
Queen Victoria, Russian ballerinas, corpses in the Thames, and the Loch Ness monster are all encountered and investigated by Holmes and Watson in this inventive, near-parody adaptation of the famous detective.
Starring Robert Stephens, Colin Blakely, Geneviève Page, and Christopher Lee.
All screenings will be hosted by North Carolina Film Critics Association member James Rosario (THEDAILYORCA.COM), who will introduce each film and lead a discussion after.
Free popcorn provided by Grail Moviehouse.
Rated PG-13.
125 minutes.
