Legendary detective Sherlock Holmes 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-soIving sIeuth, SherIock Holmes, when it is he himseIf who has set about solving crimes. With the pubIic demanding to see the Iegendary HoImes in the fIesh, and to keep the charade in pIay, Watson hires out-of-work actor Reginald Kincaid (Caine) to assume the roIe with very mixed, and very funny, results.
The game's afoot with Watson and the unlikely HoImes hot on the traiI of Professor Moriarty (Paul Freeman, Raiders of The Lost Ark), the nefarious mastermind behind a pIot that could topple the British Empire.
Without A Clue features performances by Jeffrey Jones (Ferris BueIIer's Day Off) as lnspector Lestrade, Lysette Anthony (Husbands and Wives) as Lesley GiIes, Pat Keen (BBC's David Copperfield) as Mrs. Hudson and Peter Cook (Bedazzled) as Norman Greenhough. Thom Eberhardt directs from a screenplay by Larry Strawther and Gary Murphy. |
