Description:
The Hound Of The Baskervilles
The most celebrated tale of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s canon, ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’ is set in the Victorian Age and was originally released by Twentieth Century-Fox in 1939. It is the first of fourteen Sherlock Holmes films starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce.
When Sir Charles Baskerville is killed outside of Baskerville Hall, his good friend Dr. Mortimer (Lionel Atwill) fears that the curse of the Baskervilles has struck once again. Mortimer enlists the help of Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone), before yet another Baskerville can succumb to the evil legend.
Sir Henry Baskerville (Richard Greene) arrives in London to claim his inheritance. Mortimer takes Sir Henry to 221b Baker Street and expresses his fear for Sir Henry’s life. Baskerville soon learns that along with the grand mansion on the moor, comes a devilish curse, a curious butler (John Carradine) and a cast of bizarre neighbors.
Holmes, pressed with "other business," sends Dr. Watson (Nigel Bruce) to accompany Sir Henry to the dreary moor to protect the young Baskerville from the legend of the wicked hound. Of course, with danger afoot, Sherlock Holmes may not be so far from the scene as is assumed.

Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce star in this 1939 adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's frequently filmed novel, and the result is one of the most atmospheric and purely enjoyable versions of The Hound of the Baskervilles. Except for minor changes, the script is true to Doyle's enthralling mystery about a centuries-long curse against heirs to the Baskerville estate, situated within the haunting and deadly Dartmoor in the southwest of England. With the arrival of a new master, Canadian Henry Baskerville (Richard Greene), Sherlock Holmes (Rathbone) and Dr. Watson (Bruce) are called upon to solve the strange case of the "gigantic hound" that may be readying to savage the poor fellow. Wonderful sets, crisp performances, and Rathbone's accessible but no-nonsense take on the Great Detective make this a real delight. Typical of the 20th Century Fox Holmes pictures, there's an in-joke, a final line of censor-defying dialogue alluding to Holmes's little problem with cocaine. --Tom Keogh

I remember watching this film when i was 9 or 10 back in the late 50's or early 60's after mt father went to work and my mom was asleep.There have been three or four spin offs to this great film that don't even come close.I don't no for sure but it seems that they left something out of this makeover.It doesn't matter this is a five star movie, that i rated four because i was stupid and hit the four star and it won't let me change me it.

The Hound of the Baskervilles is the classic Sherlock Holmes story.
the number one Holmes's story in fact.
and this is the classic version of the story.
there have been many other versions.
but this will allways be the best of the lot.
with the other versions I will say this..
-Hound (Hammer) Peter Cushing.
Cushing makes a good Holmes. but this has the usual Hammer stupid plot lines. the spider scean for example

My personal favorite. Rathbone and Bruce shine. You will thoroughly enjoy this one.

This 20th Century Fox version of the "Hound of the Baskervilles" was filmed in the true Universal studio tradition with all the excellent production qualities generally credited to that fine studio. It is by far my favorite release of the "Hound...", and this is the one and only old classic I was able to see on a full size theater screen in 1976 when I saw what was an excellent surviving 35 mm print at a revival theater in CT having super facilities and an extra large screen.
