Why "Divers and Sundry"?
Because this blog does not consist of a single focus topic I chose the name Divers and Sundry where "Divers" means being of many and various kinds, and "Sundry" means consisting of a haphazard assortment of different kinds.

I though Basil Rathbone was the first Holmes. 😲
ReplyDeleteThe first Sherlock Holmes film was in 1900! He's been popular since the stories were first written.
Delete...I wonder if young people know the name.
ReplyDeleteThe Thin Man is popular in some younger circles.
DeleteI love the originals -- they're such fun! Happy Sherlock Day!
ReplyDeleteI should read more of them.
DeleteThis sounds interesting! Valerie
ReplyDeleteIt's fun to see how they approached it.
DeleteNot my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThings have come a long way since 1922.
DeleteI'm sure I have seen this but so long ago I don't remember the details. I think I saw the very first one, too. Oh, and I loved the Thin Man series of movies. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's fun to see actors in their earliest roles, isn't it :)
DeleteI read all the stories when I was in middle school. At that point my memory was so good that when I reread them I almost always know the ending. Sad!
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
My husband is a huge fan and has read all the stories many times. Even if you know the ending they're good stories :)
DeleteI really want to watch this. It sounds wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy it. It's fun to see something from that long ago.
