Pretty great adaptation

I had no expectation that Peter Cushing would make an awesome Holmes but he crushed it. It seems to me that this film may have been the foundation for Guy Ritchies Holmes adaptation as well. Now Im gonna have to watch him in the 1968 SH tv series and tv film, if I can find it.

It's one of the best Holmes movies. I kind of wish the RDJ movies did an adaptation of Baskervilles.
