Colorized Classic Movie: Sherlock Holmes - Terror by Night - When the fabled Star of Rhodesia diamond is stolen on a London to Edinburgh train and the son of its owner is murdered, Sherlock Holmes must discover which of his suspicious fellow passengers is responsible. Sherlock Holmes - Terror by Night (1946) Director: Roy William Neill Writers: Frank Gruber (screenplay), Arthur Conan Doyle (adapted from a story by) Stars: Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce, Alan Mowbray Genre: Crime, Drama, Film-Noir, Mystery, Thriller Country: United States Language: English Also Known As: Terror by Night Release Date: 1 February 1946 (USA) Filming Location: Universal Studios - 100 Universal City Plaza, Universal City, California, USA Storyline: Holmes is hired by Roland Carstairs to prevent the theft of the Star of Rhodesia, a 423 carat diamond owned by Carstairs' mother, Lady Margaret. Suspecting the diamond will be stolen on a train trip from London to Edinburgh in Scotland, Holmes deftly switches diamonds with Lady Margaret while in her compartment admiring the jewel. Soon after, Roland is murdered and the fake diamond is stolen. Red herrings abound as Holmes, aided by Dr. Watson and Inspector Lestrade, discover the murderer's hiding place and deduce that long-time nemesis Professor Moriarty's henchman, Colonel Sebastian Moran, is somehow involved in the crime. Reviews: "There's not a second of screen time wasted in telling the tale of the Star of Rhodesia diamond that is stolen aboard an express train--and, of course, Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson and Insepctor LeStrade are all aboard the train, having been advised that someone is going to make an attempt to steal it. This low-budget Universal entry is easily one of the best of the Universal features co-starring BASIL RATHBONE and NIGEL BRUCE. Bruce is especially funny as he decides to do some investigating himself, with amusing false clues leading him astray. Rathbone is completely suave and relaxed as Holmes, less snappy than usual in the way he treats Watson and much more likable in the role than he has been in other entries. The plot abounds with the usual assortment of suspicious characters, but of all the supporting players ALAN MOBRAY is the one who stands out as the man who befriends Watson. Despite the low-budget trimmings and overuse of miniatures to show a train racing through the fog at night, the story is taut and the whole affair is intriguing enough to keep you watching until the unusual ending--where a double twist is completely unexpected. Highly enjoyable Holmes adventure, well-paced and entertaining." - written by "Doylenf" on IMDb.com Also Known As (AKA): (original title) Terror by Night Australia (TV title) Sherlock Holmes in Terror by Night Brazil (alternative title) Sherlock Holmes - Noite Tenebrosa Brazil Noite Tenebrosa Bulgaria (Bulgarian title) Ужас през нощта Canada (English title) Terror by Night Finland (TV title) Sherlock Holmes ja Rhodesian tähti Finland (TV title) Rhodesian tähti Finland Yöpikajunan salaisuus France Le train de la mort France (long title) Sherlock Holmes et le train de la mort Germany Juwelenraub Hungary Sherlock Holmes: Félelem a sötétben Hungary (alternative title) Rhodesia Csillaga Italy Terrore nella notte Japan (Japanese title) シャーロック・ホームズ 闇夜の恐怖 Mexico Terror en la noche Poland Sherlock Holmes: Pociąg do Edynburga Portugal Noite Tenebrosa Slovakia Strach v nocnom vlaku Soviet Union (Russian title) Шерлок Холмс: Ночной террор Spain Terror en la noche Spain (alternative title) Sherlock Holmes en Terror nocturno Sweden Sherlock Holmes tar nattexpressen UK Terror by Night USA (DVD title) Sherlock Holmes: Terror by Night USA Terror by Night Uruguay (original subtitled version) Terror en la noche ···················································································· FOLLOW US! ✘ Twitter - https://twitter.com/Artflixtv SUPPORT US! ✘ Membership: https://bit.ly/33nGlVm MORE MOVIES! ► Film Noir: https://bit.ly/3yP7UR2 ► Classic Movies: https://bit.ly/2VhJRN2 ► All Playlists: https://bit.ly/2AsmqTR #classicmovies #filmnoir #oldmovies ···················································································· COPYRIGHT: All of the films published by us are legally licensed.
