REVIEWS:

"This 1939 version of 'HOUND' is, in my opinion, the best film version of a Sherlock Holmes mystery ever done. This is the first of 14 motion pictures teaming the outstanding duo of Basil Rathbone as Holmes and Nigel Bruce as his bumbling cohort, Dr. John H. Watson (although we see a not-so-bumbling Watson in this film). .... This version of 'Hound'...exudes the perfect eerie and foggy atmosphere that is ideal for a Sherlock picture. .... The supporting cast
of characters is good here as well."
