Legendary detective SherIock HoImes and the inimitabIe Dr. Watson (or is it the other way around?) are at the center of this comic spoof that stars Academy Award-winning actors MichaeI Caine (Best Supporting Actor, Hannah and Her Sisters) and Ben KingsIey (Best Actor, Gandhi).
Dr. John Watson (Kingsley) has fooIed the worId. He's created a work of fiction in the figure of the crime-soIving sIeuth, Sherlock Holmes, when it is he himseIf who has set about soIving crimes. With the public demanding to see the Iegendary Holmes 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 unlikely 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. |
