At the last scene of the story, when Sherlock is examining the bowler, Dr. Watson rolls his eyes like saying, "Brilliant! There he goes again. How the hell does he knows all those things about a man he hasn't even met yet!!!"

"Though not in yourself luminous, you're an excellent conductor of light." Probably the best line I've ever heard uttered on screen. It is worth noting that there are a couple of fist fights in this excellent film and Holmes is a bit tasty in a scrap.

Tasty in a scrap, is right. Conan-Doyle wrote that Sherlock Holmes was an expert in "Bartitsu". This was a real-life mixed martial art that was developed by Edward Barton-Wright in the late 1880s. It combined, boxing, ju-jitsu, stick fighting and kick fighting. The Bartitsu society even used to give women's self defence classes and organize MMA tournaments.

An interesting, and indeed very entertaining twist on both the Holmes-n-Watson 'personas', and on the speculative resolution of the still unsolved Jack The Ripper / Whitechapel murders. The combining of Holmes with the Whitechapel case was unique, though the quality of acting AND editing definitely 'drew you in' to The Plot and Unfolding Evidence, where as always with Sherlock, your devout attention is absolutely duly required once "The Game Is Afoot"...!!!

Patricia Cornwell spent a couple of million dollars of her own money trying to convince people that the artist Walter Sickert was the killer. it transpires that Sickert was in France when at least one of the murders was perpetrated. then they DNA tested part of the shawl from 4th murder victim Catherine Eddowes, but that turned out to be inconclusive. to date, there have been over 200 suspects, with more emerging each year. the current red hot favourite is Charles Cross - Lechmere-, who came across the body of the 1st victim Polly Nichols, whilst he was walking to work. several of the Ripperologists & some of the top policeman from 1888, believe the killer to be Aaron Kosminski, who was a polish Jew & was eventually committed to a mental institution for the rest of his life. the truth is nobody really knows fof sure. lots of the original police files have either been lost or destroyed over the years, so it still remains a mystery

Saw the film at the cinema 😊 going to watch it again.

I've read a lot of Sherlock Holmes in the last fifteen years of my life, but I have no recollection of Sir Connan Doyle writing one of his famous detective's cases lightly based on the Jack the Ripper murders in Whiteshapel, unless this is merely a screenplay doing a face-off on the two Victorian most popular characters. Very interesting, since I thought I was the only one who has tried to put Sherlock and Jack in a same story (in a screenplay, later on on a novel), as formidable opononents indeed!
