Mr. Holmes

Lists: Drama, Mystery

Brief Synopsis: "The story is set in 1947, following a long-retired Holmes living in a Sussex village with his housekeeper and rising detective son. But then he finds himself haunted by an unsolved 50-year old case. Holmes' memory isn't what it used to be, so he only remembers fragments of the case: a confrontation with an angry husband, a secret bond with his beautiful but unstable wife."

Rob from GuysFilmQuest80 - A bit slow, but very nicely crafted. Tells the tale about Holmes struggling with issues in the one area which has always served as his greatest asset.
