Among the relics of his brother's death are some of Watson's bestsellers about their adventures, one of which is the last Sherlock Holmes case. Sherlock Holmes read the book and sneered at the story about how he solved the case, but Holmes couldn't remember the truth. He thought he must have done something wrong. . But it was difficult for Holmes at this time to recall the past. So, in order to retrieve his memory and prevent aging, he traveled to Japan to find a good medicine. A Japanese gentleman named Yamazaki helped him. He wrote a letter to tell Sherlock Holmes that there is a plant that can cure aging and volunteered to help him find it. He showed Sherlock Holmes his collection of Sherlock Holmes for many years and asked him to sign it. Lower Holmes found the plant and brought it back to England. But when he was parting, Holmes revealed that Yamazaki was not a fan of himself at all, that the book was from the library and Yamazaki knew nothing about plants. Yamazaki angrily told him that his father had abandoned his wife and children when he was very young, and only returned the last letter saying that Holmes suggested that he stay in England. And Holmes also responded sternly that he had never met Yamazaki's father, and that he was just an excuse for that coward to abandon his wife and children. Returning to England, Sherlock Holmes pinned his hopes on the power of the plant, ate the jam it made, resumed his life as a beekeeper, and tried to remember the last case to write a book. He lives with a housekeeper woman with her young son, and the two take care of the elderly Sherlock Holmes. The little boy was clever and adored Sherlock Holmes, read his books, and learned beekeeping from him. His curiosity and concern gave Holmes more motivation to recall that event. The housekeeper did not like her son to learn from Sherlock Holmes. Her husband died prematurely because of his intelligence. His son was her only one. She hoped that his son would live a peaceful and ordinary life. . However, Sherlock Holmes's health deteriorated.

The accident happened at this time, the boy was stung in critical condition, and Sherlock Holmore Si immediately called for help but did not notify the mother, the housekeeper was distraught, she vented to Sherlock Holmes and planned to kill the bee that stings the child.

At the hospital, Holmes opens his heart to the housekeeper, and the fragments of his memory come together as he remembers his last case.

The more the man stops her, the more she tries to play the piano. During the detective's journey, Holmes discovered that the woman was trying to kill herself, buying poison, forging her husband's notes, taking out checks, and creating tombstones for herself and her children.

Although they had passed away, for Holmes at this time, Just across the wall, beside him. This great detective who advocated logical insight into life and despised emotions throughout his life became gentle and affectionate in the last period of his life. Movie Rating: 8/10 One-sentence comment: A touching and tender movie, one cannot live without human nature. The protagonist is very good. Review: Excellent 8 out of 10 movie, worth watching. The film conveys delicate and considerate humanistic care. The famous detective Sherlock Holmes maintained his extraordinary sharpness and detective intelligence in this film. But the core of the struggle is no longer the criminal murderer, but his own aging, forgetfulness, and inner guilt and pain. Nothing is more heartbreaking than the hero's aging. Sherlock Holmes, the once-great and charismatic detective, was running out of days, wrinkled face and shaky walk. His most outstanding brain was also affected, and his amnesia became more and more serious. His relatives and friends all left before him, and the housekeeper mother and son who took care of him were not close to him. The old age of this excellent man is not bleak, but lonely and sad. He had no lover in his life, and in his later years he was afraid of hurting others and hid in the countryside, regretting, feeling guilty, and feeling useless. The suicide of a woman who was saddled with the woman who was not rescued in the last case cannot be relieved. It is a pity for such a kind and excellent detective to end his life alone. However, aging is the inevitable end of those who do not die prematurely, and with any luck we will all come to this point sooner or later. From peak to decline, the greatest minds cannot avoid it. Life is so ruthless, you don't need to do anything wrong to lose everything, all life gives you will eventually be taken back, day by day more powerless, and eventually can't even take care of life... so don't form Family, not building intimacy with others will make such an evening scene even more bleak. It would be great if Watson was still by his side at this time. If he had a child and a wife who loved him by his side, it would have relieved his pain to some extent... Holmes could have chosen this path, but he did not. Because loneliness is inevitable, we on this side of the wall are so lonely. Sherlock Holmes is so smart, he knows that people are born with weaknesses, no matter what you do, you can't eliminate them, you can't escape, and he is used to this kind of loneliness. There are too many intense emotions in the world, but very little logic. He is accompanied by his extraordinary thinking and does not let himself suffer too much emotional interference. His choice made his career brilliant. It is admirable to accept the ending of lonely death and old age. Some people in the world choose to die heroically in love, and some people choose to die alone and rationally. These people's deaths are not pitiful, but the poor are those who struggle back and forth and cannot accept the reality. Death and loneliness are unavoidable, and some people use companionship to ease the pain, which Holmes would rather face head on. Until the end, despite being unable to take care of himself due to aging and even being treated rudely by the housekeeper, he accepted everything. The film runs through two sharp contradictions, emotional and rational. Sherlock Holmes represented by reason, woman who committed suicide represented by emotion, husband represented by reason, housekeeper represented by emotion, and son of housekeeper who advocated reason. Emotions represent mothers, while men do not understand style and their sentimental sadness. In his later years, Sherlock Holmes softened. He was no longer as dismissive of feelings as he was when he was young, and became more and more gentle and considerate. A woman who commits suicide seeks love and longs to be no longer alone. Yamazaki from Japan longs for a father and grows up alone. The housekeeper loves her son so much that she can't bear to lose him. Sherlock Holmes understands that he regrets his selfishness and ruthlessness, so he tries to make up for it. , communicate, and even compile white lies. In this film, Sherlock Holmes achieves the fusion of sensibility and reason, his soul is sublimated, and he reaches reconciliation with the people around him and his past self. Sherlock Holmes in the film has a sophisticated and logical mind, and at the same time has a subtle understanding of the heart. Highly ethical, compassionate and responsible. He exiled himself for more than 30 years for the client's wife who committed suicide, which made the audience feel sympathy and respect for the old hero from the bottom of their hearts. But on the other hand, if you jump out of the story text and compare the interpretation of Sherlock Holmes in this film with the interpretation of the original book/other films, you will feel that Sherlock Holmes in this film is more inclined to an artistic image full of humanistic care. If there is such a detective in the parallel world Sir, he has solved crimes with a ruthless and rational character all his life, will he banish the rest of his life because of a woman who committed suicide? If he is so tender, it goes against his previous behavior. So I'm leaning towards the conclusion that one of the main points of this film is to encourage tenderness between people, drumming up It encourages emotional expression, and given the fact that there can be no such a Mr. Holmes who integrates all kinds of contradictions, this kind of encouragement is more like a bowl of sad chicken soup. It looked so good, it made sense, and it was classy, but far from the reality I was exposed to. However, this kind of consideration can provide a reference, after all, everyone desires gentle care. In the end, the overall viewing experience is very good. If you watch it alone, you will be comforted and stronger. If you watch it with many people, you will want to cherish the time and treat each other gently. It is recommended to watch it when you are injured or tired. If you hate slow-paced and children, forget it.
