The movie
Show notes
The game is afoot! Join the Mikes as they put on their finest deerstalker caps and watch a young Sherlock Holmes and Watson stop an Egyptian cult from murdering people with hallucinogenic blow darts in 19th century London in Barry Levinson's Young Sherlock Holmes , written by Chris Columbus. Mike Field and Mike Butler discuss how the film is a classic 80's adventure film with a lot of Spielberg touches, that harken back to Indiana Jones or The Goonies . Butler will also discuss how even though it came long after, its hard not to compare this film to another very British film from Chris Columbus... Harry Potter . So grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits at the front and rear of the auditorium, and settle down for Forgotten Cinema .
