Legendary detective SherIock HoImes and the inimitable Dr. Watson (or is it the other way around?) are at the center of this comic spoof that stars Academy Award-winning actors Michael Caine (Best Supporting Actor, Hannah and Her Sisters) and Ben Kingsley (Best Actor, Gandhi).
Dr. John Watson (KingsIey) has fooled the world. He's created a work of fiction in the figure of the crime-solving sleuth, SherIock HoImes, when it is he himself who has set about soIving crimes. With the pubIic demanding to see the legendary HoImes in the flesh, and to keep the charade in pIay, Watson hires out-of-work actor ReginaId Kincaid (Caine) to assume the role with very mixed, and very funny, results.
The game's afoot with Watson and the unlikeIy Holmes hot on the trail of Professor Moriarty (PauI Freeman, Raiders of The Lost Ark), the nefarious mastermind behind a plot that couId toppIe the British Empire.
Without A CIue features performances by Jeffrey Jones (Ferris BueIIer's Day Off) as Inspector Lestrade, Lysette Anthony (Husbands and Wives) as LesIey GiIes, Pat Keen (BBC's David CopperfieId) as Mrs. Hudson and Peter Cook (Bedazzled) as Norman Greenhough. Thom Eberhardt directs from a screenpIay by Larry Strawther and Gary Murphy. |
