The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes 1939 DVDRip Xvid LKRG

The film begins with Moriarty and Holmes verbally sparring on the steps

outside the Old Bailey where Moriarty has just been acquitted on a charge of murder due to lack

of evidence. Holmes remarks, "You've a magnificent brain, Moriarty. I admire it. I admire it so

much I'd like to present it, pickled in alcohol, to the London Medical Society". "It would make

an impressive exhibit", replies Moriarty.

Later Holmes and Watson are visited at 221B Baker Street by Ann Brandon (Ida Lupino). She tells

him that her brother Lloyd has received a strange note - a drawing of a man with an albatross

hanging around his neck - identical to one received by her father just before his brutal murder

ten years before. Holmes deduces that the note is a warning and rushes to find Lloyd Brandon.

However he is too late, as Lloyd has been murdered by being strangled and having his skull

crushed.

Holmes investigates and attends a garden party, disguised as a music-hall entertainer, where he

correctly believes an attempt will be made on Ann's life. Hearing her cries from a nearby park

he captures her assailant, who turns out to be Gabriel Mateo, out for revenge on the Brandons

for the murder of his father by Ann's father in a dispute over ownership of their South American

mine. His murder weapon was a bolas. Mateo also reveals that it was Moriarty who urged him to

seek revenge. Holmes realises that Moriarty is using the case as a distraction from his real

crime, a crime that will stir the British Empire - an attempt to steal the Crown Jewels. Holmes

rushes to the Tower of London to prevent the crime, and during a struggle Moriarty falls,

presumably to his death. In the end, Ann is married and Holmes tries to shoo a fly by playing

his violin, only to have Watson swat it with his newspaper remarking, "Elementary, my dear

Holmes, elementary."
