    Audiences may relish how Billy Wilder made Holmes boldly admit that "a woman is not her cup of tea", but what really makes this "postmodern" Sherlock Holmes story interesting is Wilder's use of Sherlock Holmes' detective career An outright "failed" case alludes to the ruin of humanity under the dark clouds of war in the 20th century. Is it that human beings have lost the ability to love and will only go through fire and water for profit? Of course, Sherlock Holmes will never express his...

    Watson is too noisy There is a very absurd mechanical fandom when the XX inside is revealed. The ps BC version of Xia Fu is very similar to RS's. Obviously, it is not an illusion. Irene's adaptation has many similarities (yes, I am the kind of 201's life)...

    It turns out that Wilder was playing Sherlock Holmes and Watson's rotten stalks in the 1970s, which is slightly better than the later BBC and Guy Ritchie. After all, Wilder's sense of humor is almost self-contained in film history. The story is generally a Sherlock Holmes fan with too many elements. The background is the arms race in Europe after World War II (but the theme of the war was easily resolved by the stalk of the Queen of England's "Glory of War"), from the Russian dancer looking for...

    The beginning is so hilarious! It turned out to be The Woman's reconciliation story! ! All kinds of edge balls haha, it's a bit watery to portray Holmes as a detective who is always put together by women~ The heroine can't see how powerful she is except for all kinds of coquettishness.... Holmes is tragic, and the doctor is even more watery Ha ha. The overall is still very good, the BBC version of SH101, 201 is simply a tribute to...

    I love the style! ! In this regard, the laughter of Billy's other films is colder 233233. Alfred looks like Gary Cooper, and am I the only one who thinks Peanut's jumping feet are exactly the same as Jack's on...

    Three-star half-entry; Sherlock Holmes is indeed an inexhaustible treasure. Even Billy Wilder couldn't help but get involved. It was so rotted in the 70s, I can't think of it! The unique lines in the first half of Jifeng created a lot of laughter. The latter case itself did not pay much attention to reasoning. The whole film is full of British luxury and light humor. The Queen is too cute, the interior setting is good, and the overall color tone...

    Very interesting film, Billy Wilder made fun of Sherlock Holmes' sexual orientation, which is much better than Shen Xia, who is based on selling corruption. There are cute and advanced jokes all over the place. I especially like this scene of the ballet company, lol die. In contrast, the case itself is not very interesting. Grandpa Lee, who plays Mycroft, is too young to...

    Haha, even Wilde joked about Sherlock's sexuality. The first half is really interesting, and there is some warmth in the back. Sherlock's witty and clever part depicts too little, and the pen and ink are all emotional, Watson is still quite fun. 3.5...

    The script was written so "badly" that it seems that the "black" British still want "Germans". . . With heavy makeup, Sherlock Holmes looked like a castrato singer. ....

    It has a long history to tease the sexuality of Holmes and Watson. Plus all the little jokes Billy Wilder is good at. The case itself is not so...

    Afterthought

    Some feelings

    1) Only the opening part of the movie is interesting. At the beginning, I shouldn't expect it as a reasoning film, but as a comedy, but the reasoning behind it is not good or funny. Perhaps no matter how good a screenwriter is, he is still too confident if he does not rely on adapting...

    Holmes' sexual orientation?

    Star rating: ★★★☆I

    recently watched Billy Wild’s "The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes" (The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes 1970) and discovered that it was not only Guy Rich who suspected the ambiguous relationship between Sherlock Holmes and dear Watson. De directly suspected Holmes’ sexual...

The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes quotes

  • Holmes: [after he learns Madame Petrova wants him to impregnate her] This is all very flattering, but surely there are other men, better men.

    Nikolai Rogozhin: To tell truth, you were not the first choice. We considered Russian writer, Tolstoy.

    Holmes: Oh, that's more like it. The man's a genius.

    Nikolai Rogozhin: Too old. Then we considered philosopher, Nietzsche.

    Holmes: Well, absolutely first-rate mind.

    Nikolai Rogozhin: Uh-uh. Too German. Then we considered Tchaikovsky.

    Holmes: Oh, you couldn't go wrong with Tchaikovsky.

    Nikolai Rogozhin: We could, and we did. It was catastrophe.

    Holmes: Why?

    Nikolai Rogozhin: You don't know? Because Tchaikovsky, how shall I put it? Women not his glass of tea.

  • Holmes: Madame must not be too hasty. She must remember that I am an Englishman.

    Nikolai Rogozhin: So?

    Holmes: You know what they say about us: if there's one thing more deplorable than our cooking, it's our lovemaking. We are not the most romantic of people.

    Nikolai Rogozhin: Perfect! We don't want sentimental idiots, falling in love, committing suicide. One week in Venice with Madame, she goes back to St. Petersburg with baby, you go back to London with fiddle.
