SHERLOCK HOLMES - A STUDY IN SCARLET (1933/VCI) - VHS

The first adventure of Sherlock Holmes with Reginal Owen as Holmes of Baker Street. His uncanny powers of observation are put to the test, leaving Scotland Yard in the British dust. Anna May Wong co-stars as an insideous, mysterious piece of the puzzle. The direction and acting is far above what you might expect from a small independent company from the 30's. A cloaked figure creeping in shadows, hidden passageways, secret meetings...all combined from various Holmes stories.
