- Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon (1943) is the fourth in the Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce series of Sherlock Holmes films.
Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone) pretends to be a Nazi spy to aid scientist Dr. Franz Tobel (William Post Jr.) and his new invention, a bombsight, in escaping a Gestapo trap in Switzerland. Holmes and Franz fly to London, where Holmes places him under the protection of his friend, Dr. Watson (Nigel Bruce). The scientist slips away against Holmes' instructions for a secret reunion with his fiancee, Charlotte Eberli (Kaaren Verne), and gives her an envelope containing a coded message. He tells Charlotte to give it to Holmes if anything should happen to him. Leaving Charlotte's apartment, an attempt to abduct him by German spies is foiled by a passing London bobby.
Tobel successfully demonstrates the bombsight for Sir Reginald Bailey (Holmes Herbert) and observers from Bomber Command. Tobel, now under the protection of Inspector Lestrade (Dennis Hoey) and Scotland Yard, tells Sir Reginald that, although willing to provide the British with his bombsight, only he will know its secret and has a complex plan for its manufacture to keep the secret safe. He separates his invention into four parts and gives one to each of four Swiss scientists, known only to him, to construct separately. Soon after, Holmes receives a call from Lestrade telling him that Tobel has disappeared. Holmes goes to Charlotte's apartment, where he receives the Tobel's envelope. Rather than the coded message, the message inside is from Holmes' nemesis, master criminal Professor Moriarty (Lionel Atwill).
Disguising himself as Ram Singh, one of Moriarty's old henchmen, Holmes searches the Soho district for information. He encounters two henchmen, but is captured by Moriarty. Holmes is put into the false bottom of a sea chest, but is rescued when Watson and Lestrade observe the henchmen struggling with its unusual weight. Holmes returns to Charlotte's apartment to search for clues to the message's contents. He finds impressions of the message left on a notepad page by immersing it in "fluorescent salts... and then photograph(ing) it by ultraviolet light." Holmes breaks the first three lines of a cunningly modified alphabet substitution code, which are the identities and locations of three of the scientists, but unable to break the fourth line, which has been altered as an added precaution, soon learns that Moriarty has murdered all three and stolen their parts. Meanwhile, Moriarty, also unable to break the fourth line, tortures Tobel for the name of the fourth scientist. Holmes deduces the change in the code and breaks the fourth line, identifying the scientist as Professor Frederick Hoffner (Henry Victor).
Moriarty accidentally deciphers the code. He sends agents to abduct Hoffner, who has the brilliance to put the four parts together should Tobel not recover from torture. The German agents bring the scientist, who is actually Holmes in disguise again, to Moriarty's seemingly undetectable stronghold. Unknown to Moriarty, Holmes had the real Hoffner attach an apparatus to their car that drips luminous paint (which Watson helped prepare) at regular intervals. Holmes uses Moriarty's vanity and pride to trick him into slowly bleeding Holmes to death "drop by drop", to stall for time. Holmes is saved at the last minute, however, by Watson and Lestrade, who with Hoffner's help, successfully followed the drops. Scotland Yard apprehends the spies, but Moriarty escapes. When he attempts to complete his escape through a secret passageway, he falls sixty feet to his death; Holmes has discovered the criminal's hidden trap door and left it open.
This is the second Basil Rathbone "Sherlock Holmes" film in which Moriarty dies. He is thrown to his death from the top of the Tower of London by Holmes in 1939's The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. During the course of the adventure, Holmes adopts the disguises of an elderly German bookseller (taken from the Arthur Conan Doyle story The Adventure of the Empty House), the lascar sailor Ram Singh, and the Swiss scientist Professor Hoffner. His disguise as the bookseller was parodied in the film The Pink Panther. The film is a loose adaptation of The Adventure of the Dancing Men; while credited as an adaptation, the only content which bears similarity is the "dancing men" code.

Directed by Roy William Neil, produced by Howard Benedict, written by W. Scott Darling, based on "The Adventure of the Dancing Men" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, starring Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes, Nigel Bruce as Dr. Watson, Lionel Atwill as Professor Moriarty, music by Frank Skinner.

All time best Sherlock Holmes movies with Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce.
THANK YOU and if not helps, then send pankaccount!
Just Sending my understand :)
There is a reason these pictures are classics. Great story telling and acting that will last forever .
True, and the direction is superb.
I can't get enough of Basil and Nigel, those two just kill it, considering the years they played the roles, such classy characterizations
Don't forget Dennis Hoey, so humble when he says; "that's ok Miss."
D.H. was without a doubt, the best Inspector Lestrade.
The first 10-15 minutes of this film is my favorite part of a movie anytime, anywhere. The atmosphere and action are absolutely perfect IMO.
yeah bro😀
It’s a pleasure to relived this old films with more intelligence and low violence! An estimulous to imagination, some times naive but always fun!
I've seen this so many times I can't count since I was a kid and I never get tired of it.
kurtnmia me too. All with basil rathbone and nigel Bruce. I can watch them over and over and never get tired of them.
Yes me too
Basil Rathbone was the best Holmes. No one has matched him yet, though one or two came close.
I love these classic movies with espionage and Scotland Yard written in so heavily. It’s fascinating what the common man can survive. Sherlock Holmes never gets old or outdated.
Gotta love Holmes' (Basil Rathbone in this one) different disguises, but I'd recognise that nose every time 😄
Sir Basil, you are the perfect kind of man. A war hero and that voice! I am in love.
Oh God, once again Watson f's up his duties, and starts making up excuses for this screw ups to Sherlock Holmes!
I really don't know how Mr. Holmes can continuously stand it, and put up with it, and keep his cool, without blowing up at worthless Watson!
I've not seen this one that I can remember. Pretty good. Sherlock always comes through.

This list is not exhaustive. however, these are some of the
many actors who have played Sherlock Holmes on stage,
screen, radio and TV adaptations.
Classic, Holmes vs. Moriarity
Holmes, 'I neglected to warn him, it seems some careless person came across his trap doo-or, and left it open.' He, he
Excellent movie, thanks for posting! But I do wonder though, how can anyone downvote this? It's beyond me.
Excellent wartime thriller! Lionel Atwill at his villainous best!
The best place to hide anything is where everyone can see it in plain view.. Thank you Sherlock Holmes and Edgar Allan Poe. I used that theory at Christmas for special gifts not under the Christmas tree.
Eric Porter is the best Moriarty ever! It's scary to even look at him. All you can think is, "this guy's going to do something really horrible!"
Couldn't agree more! Atwill is good, but Porter is even scarier, because he is half obsessed, half mad in his hatred for Holmes, and plays it to perfection.
"This fortress built by Nature for herself, this blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England." Richard II (Shakespeare). I always did like that quote at the end, and quite apt considering the circumstances.
This crowd of clowns fucking up the UK.
This should have been read by Sir Winston Churchill.
Hats off to these guys for making such a wonderful movie at a time when all the world knew was to fight each other.
I've always thought that same thought! My father went ashore in Normandy in the 2nd wave, and it amazes me that such great films could come out of Britain & hollycrap during all the horror of WWII!
Well said!👏
One must remember that for Rathbone and Bruce both, these films were very much part of the war effort and they were doing their part, continuing the fight in this way against the same foe, Germany, as 25 years before. They were both decorated in WWI, Bruce wounded by machine-gun fire in his back, and Rathbone decorated for a particulary heroic action where he took a German trench all by himself, using his pistol to great effect. David Niven tells in his book The Moon is a Balloon of meeting these fellow Brits in Hollywood, saying how he and the other young men went very quiet when these older ones shared reminiscenses of WWI. Ronald Colman was wounded by mustard gas in the trenches, and Herbert Marshall lost one leg. Yes, my hat is indeed off to these brave men!
Basil Rathbone could have easily played the character of THE SHADOW.
Just when you think Watson is a bumbling buffoon, here comes Lastrade! Too funny!
Watching these All Day Long -. -
i love it watch it every day i love doctor Watson he's cool
Even Sherlock Holmes was enlisted to fight the Nazis.
Dr Tobel is doing secret work...but...his name is over the door bell at 4:24. Great movie. All the Rathbone/Bruce movies are great.
@ 9:56 "I have always believed in the theory originally projected by Edgar Allen Poe, the American writer, that the best place to hide something is where everyone can see it."
love the E.A.Poe's 'The Purloined Letter" reference in 10:00
Another great ending, by Rathbone, at fadeout!
I love during testing bomb sight they used my favorite British aircraft the mosquitoe
I must be missing something. When Moriarty is taking Holmes blood out, I don't see any bag or bottle hanging down below on the other side of the gurney for the blood to be going into. And it's not all over the floor. And Dr. Watson doesn't have to bandage his arm after pulling the needle. Otherwise, it would take more time before he could pull his sleeve down. Unless it was a very small needle. Like a 23 gauge or something. But then Holmes wouldn't be weak and swaying from a gravity drop blood loss unless he was there for days. And the line would plug up before then. Sometimes these shows make no sense to me at all. Or at least parts of them.
Yes it’s definitely frustrating but rarely do you see movies or TV shows that get it right when it comes to the medical scenes. I worked for years in surgery and I just laugh out loud at most of the surgery scenes on film. Like when a surgeon walks into surgery with his mask down, if he’s even wearing one. And how they toss their gloves away, always having someone else sew the wound shut. Cracks me up every time. 😆
I can tell you, the older reusable I.V. needles were definitely not 23 guage, they were frighteningly long and thick.
Why does Holmes always sound pissed off whenever he says "Thank you!" ?
VinnyDaQ 🤔😂😂😂🤔
Haha agreed
If you want to watch a real csi or some such type tv/movie, don't bother watching the junk that supposedly passes for tv or movies these days......watch the best: Sherlock Holmes, the greatest detective of all time...based on a man Arthur Conan Doyle knew, Dr. Joseph Bell, of the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh......Bell, Doyle and Holmes=all geniuses !
Sherlock Holmes is awesome !! Rathbone and Bruce play them the BEST !!
me too!
Who was the genius who decided Rathbone should wear his hair that way - with 2 big curls? He usually wore it straight back, but this style makes him look like a dandy or peacock or something.
Margaret D Very true! Maybe they were trying to make him look more casual. Personally I think it makes him look more ugly! The only time I think he truly looks attractive is when he has masquerra on and his hair is combed back as usual. And no dark lines under his eyes. Like in The Woman In Green.
Margaret D I am not a fan of the two curl style either.
1:00:23 Funny! The look on the professor's face.
It had it's Premiere on Xmas Day 1942. It was also released in the UK in 42.
Great print! Thanks so much for this.
Best Sherlock ever
There is much to like in this film, but one cringes at the stupidity of Dr. Tobel. After being daringly rescued from the Nazis by Sherlock Holmes, and told to stay put because of the great danger he is in, the first thing he does is to go traipsing around London and being attacked by enemy agents for his trouble. But that is not enough. Rather than entrusting his bomb sight to the British government, who went to so much trouble extricating him and to whom he had promised to turn it over, he flatly refuses and elects instead to turn over different pieces of it to other scientists, two of whom get murdered for their trouble, totally unneccesary deaths who must be laid flat at Tobel's doorstep. He then further traips about until he is taken by Moriarty, and would have been taken back to Nazi-Germany were it not for the ingenuity of Sherlock Holmes, who nearly loses his life in the process. Some glaring plot holes, which must have been ovbvious to the script writers.
It is the best ever show. ❤
_I'll tell you all right I will-the truth and that's a fact. The blighter's in Davy Jones' locker a feeding the fishes, he is, deader than a blinking mackerel. Now, ain't that worth a fiver? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!_
_This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England._
Although English by ancestry, I have yet to go there. and still, that last line makes me shiver.
I liked that part also. what makes it great and inspirational is the tune that goes along with the words. One of the problems RKO ran into was getting newcome actors in their films. Harry Cording is in a lot of SH films.
Brad Humphries
Thanks for commenting on this/. I will watch again, and pay attention to the music there, as well.
When we see American character actors in tv and movies, whose names one may not know - but whose faces and often voices are instantly recognizable, we always say, "well, HE (or she) certainly works a lot', lol.
Ah, definitely one of my favorites, as finally we get a good look at the evil genius himself, Professor Moriarty! In so many tales he is in the shadows, pulling strings from beyond, often thought to be dead, or non-existent; but here we see him in all his evil glory, in his secret stronghold, which he proudly presents to Holmes as having "all the modern conveniences of a successful man in my profession". And so it is! Unbreakable glass, soundproof, unfindable, but with access to the street, the sewers, the river, a fully equipped hospital to patch up wounded cronies,, trap doors, false walls, booby traps, ... I love it!
Who played a greater Moriarty than Lionel Atwill? Nobody, in my humble opinion!
I would say George Zucco in Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in 1939, esp the scene where Professor Moriarty disguised himself as a Policeman in the tower of London. George Zucco did a better performance than Lionell Atwill, and Henry Daniell,
Brad Humphries George Zucco was in Atwill's league, no doubt about it. Both actors had extensive stage experience and both were superb villains!
Henry Daniell was the third actor to play Moriarty in "The Woman in Green'. However I thought he was little to thin for the role. Zucco and Atwill match the animation drawings I have seen of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Brad Humphries Henry Daniell had a nice reptilian quality to his work . But, then, I agree that Zucco and Atwill were better Moriartys
Thank you. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
16:20 Holy Crap!...... That's a nice "flat". What does she do for a living?
Others have their favorites but there was no finer Moriarty than Lional Atwill~ ol' snake eyes!
Couldn't nab a one legged man.love it.
You know , Holmes and Watson has been my all-time favorite since I've been in Grammar School. And way before( HBO & PRISM ) was even invented. For the younger people that don't know what PRISM is they were the first two cable networks. Anyway I must
have seen this movie at least 10 times & watching it now like it's brand new ! ( cont..... ,
another thing ,,,,,,,,,,,,
there has been many other actors that played Sherlock Holmes and dr. Watson
but not one of them could hold a glass of Sherry ,
Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes
& Nigel Bruce as Dr. John Watson
other people have tried but none of them could ever succeed and hold the character Sherlock Holmes then basil Rathbone.
The same goes for Nigel Bruce, as he portrayed dr. John Watson in his
sometimes a little bit lost but also sometimes very clever. I remember times some certain movies we're dr. Watson was more clever than Sherlock Holmes. But there was only a few of them.
Yes Sherlock Holmes and dr. Watson these two English Duos are my most favorite.
I’ve always enjoyed these Sherlock homes movies w g n tv in Chicago use to show these movies
Great movie! Odd to see this after watching 'Son of Frankenstein', though, where Atwill played the cop (Inspector Krogh) and Rathbone played the bad or rather seriously misguided Doctor Frankenstein.
T
Which goes to show what great actors they both were. Hero or villian, Atwill or Rathbone could play the gamut!
Doc Malthus
Yes, a lot of the B-actors/character actors of the Golden Age of Hollywood seem to have been better performers than some of the a-listers.
Eric Hinkle 'That's Frank-en-steen!"
watch?v=nxxSIX3fmmo
***** I do have to agree with this remark. I suppose if you were a B-actor you had to develop actual talent to make up for the lack of good looks to coast on.
So many people understand so little of operational security...
Even alleged geniuses.
"The needle to the last, eh Holmes?"
I think this and Hound of the Baskervilles are the only times it's mentioned in the entire Rathbone series.
These old b&w movies are great!
Three points;
1. Salisbury Plain testing area looks suspiciously like a dessert.
2. They couldn't catch a man with a wooden leg.
3. Moriarty had an equipped hospital on the other side of the door.
Who wrote this nonsense? Certainly not Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Agreed. I'm kind of shocked by all the people praising this trash. The story is ridiculous, Watson is a moron, and Holmes is just kind of bland and only seems smart because everyone else seems like a bunch of idiots. The SH stories with Jeremy Brett (which dramatized the original stories) are vastly superior to this poorly-written garbage
They looked like Stick Figures!
NOT Dancing Men.
“We must leave at once!....wait a minute “ 😄
I also thought it was a poor decision on someone's part to not even mention the massive flotilla that they flew over. Especially since this is WW1.
WW2
@@emerald640 Okay. Sorry.
Few weeks ago I was reading some Sherlock Holmes stories and realized I grew up on Basil Rathbone who makes great Holmes, but Robert Downey, Jr. Only one that captures the essence of the Book Holmes perfectly.
name that Tune, Mozart's Rondo alla Turka.
Sooo many RUclips adverts now, they're ruining their own platform
Glad to see a movie about World War II set during it besides Casablanca.
This drives me nuts! When they're "torturing" Dr. Tobel, by stretching him on a table, they're crazy! If he was being stretched by a machine it's one thing. But having some traction applied feels wonderful! Like those hanging things for your back, just being upside down really takes the pain out. And using your own body weight is far more than what a few people can do just pulling on you like that. I'd actually pay someone to do it to me!!!
Norice that the pilot was a woman. During WW2, British women were trained as pilots in order to ferry aircraft.
great movie.
This is the film where Inspector Lestrade (Dennis Hoey) makes his debut.
THE BIGGEST ASSHOLE EVER IN FILMS
Only 5 movies with Basil & Atwill as Sherlock & Watson…what a shame. I’ve seen them enough to know every nuance, like a favorite song. They should have made 50 together! I loved Peter Cushing, but these guys chemistry was off the charts.
Man, old fashioned newspaper hangers. I haven't seen them since I was in high school.
21:34 "There he is"......Nothing gets by this guy.
Watson, what d'you make of it? Of what then, said Watson; putting sugar on his tea. I did not hear or see you at present.
Never mind, I was just asking an opinion from you for our current occupation?
When I was in India no-one asked me for but 221b Baker Street serves a fine pot.
I meant that our current position leaves us no choice. Our duty is to place the war service behind us unless we can be sure of making any of use.
Let's just hope the war hasn't got our guts and carry on peace?
War will develope, there will always be someone who tries to manipulate everything.
Let us just hope, it's not too late. 2 & 5
Only 5 movies with Basil & Atwill
I laughed the first time I saw the secret weapon. Standing in for the Norden Bombsight was a mid century Beseler photo enlarger.
I just had eye surgery two days ago and have been binge-watching these movies with one eye! Lol...that should say how great they are to watch! Blessings everyone! Thoroughly enjoying while healing!
Definitely Fallon Naval Air Base! It's not Nellis or Indian Springs. The vegetation is wrong. Even though they're closer to Hollywood. I'm sure it's just film rolls from their testing at the Base east of Reno. I used to live there and it's exactly the same as what's in the bombing scenes in this movie. Especially the type of sagebrush.
at 22.00 ..thats NOT SALISBURY PLAIN..its some desert in USA
M. khan All these movies were made in Hollywood. They used stock film for all those background and scenic shots. So that part could have been shot just about anywhere.
M. khan It looks like the bombing range at the Fallon Naval Air Base. They have fences all around with signs that say Unexploded Ordinance. KEEP OUT! East of Reno Nevada USA.
That mika from the rifleman
Too many ad interruptions though
The last 30 seconds is very moving. I can't imagine what it must have meant at the time.
🎶 Aye aye up she rises, aye aye up she rises, aye aye up she rises early in the morning🎶
Why do i feel like an old person after watching this movie although i am 11 😳😕
because your old
cause you liked it?
me to
Me too. And I'm 11 right now
If you were indeed 11, you were too immature to dig it. If, on the other hand, you're merely a troll~
stop wasting our time.
very funny for a Swiss person 🤣 2:15 also for British 😂
I remember having downloaded this movie on my walkman
Thank you.....
Great film
I say THANK YOU .
Sir Basil Rathbone was the greatest actor stage n screen
is that the sheriff from north fork in the beginning of the movie? micah torrence? playing the gestapo agent.
Yes that is Paul Fix. My Dad even recognized him. I saw this movie for the first time when I was a youngster.
david wildgust no, not me, i have a beard and at 6' and 245
Yes that is the Sheriff. My Dad also recognize him.
Sheriff on Gunsmoke!
Or the Rifle men?
I saw Scooby Doo roll his eyes at Watson
How many times can Moriarity die???😳
I see "SHEILA" from "The voice of Terror"
Greatest ending in cinema history.
1:07:08
Just clicked as to where I'd seen the actress Kaaren Verne (Charlotte Averly)..she was in the classic "Kings Row".
I like the story of SCANDAL IN BOHEMIA
Horrible amount of stupid advertisements.
Why would you ever sit through ads when you can just pay for Premium? I have RUclips playing 24 hours a day, and the only ads I hear are when podcasters read ads from their sponsors. My time is worth too much to ever waste it sitting through commercials.
Thanks 🙏
Most amusing !
It drives me nuts when they tie Holmes hands in front and put a hankerchief around his mouth. Why doesn't he just reach up and pull it down and yell? They did the same thing in Sherlock Holmes Goes To Washington! Watson is yelling "where are you", and all Holmes has to do is reach up and pull it down and tell him! Stupid writers!
DISLIKE
Filmed in 1942.
Everytime I hear Watson say "fiddle", it's like fingernails scratching across a blackboard. There's a difference between a violin, (which is what Holmes played), and a fiddle. For one thing, the word fiddle can denote more than one type of stringed instrument and the bridge on a fiddle is built different for the different types of sounds that are made by fiddlers than violinists.
Patty Lee only a classical musician would make that comment. Reminds me of a violinist I used to date.
@@dougtagg9162 the main thing is the STYLE of play, not any difference in instruments. A clarinet is a clarinet; but Mozart and Pete Fountain?
I have watched too many comparison videos, and they say that there is no difference between them. They are essentially the same instrument.
Sheer Luck Holmes
👀
The Sherlock ritual??? Logic, logic, logic!!!
