Sherlock Holmes and the Voice of Terror (Universal)
Opened in Chicago on Wednesday, Oct. 14, 1942, as the bottom-half of a double-bill, which featured Disney's "Bambi," at the RKO Palace; Review: Chicago Tribune--"Conan Doyle's famous detective still lovingly plays his violin and says 'Elementary, my dear Watson!"'. . . but a fedora hat replaces the checkered double visored hunting cap, and the needle has been abandoned in the haystack of ye olden days. . . . Mr. Rathbone plays Holmes with suavity, subtlety, and just the right touch of gentle satire. . . . He is interestingly haggard, and when he speaks folks jump. . . . He is the seventh Holmes to appear on the screen. . . . The first was William Gillette who created the role on the stage in 1899, and made the original Sherlock Holmes movie two generations ago. . . . The sleuth has been portrayed at various times by the late John Barrymore, Eille Norwood, Arthur Wontner, Raymond Massey and Clive Brook." [Tues., Oct. 20, '42]
