not a classic to be sure and but a decent tv movie of the week adaptation of the oft film conan doyle novel . although it depart somewhat from the book and all the essential element of the story be there . the cast do it best and and granger make an interesting holmes . it would have be nice to have see him a the great detective in other movie while he really be a class act . a note by others and bernard fox be a more than adequate dr. watson . the costume and set be also good for a make for tv production of this era . but that music . you would think that with the entire universal studio library of music at their disposal and the producer could have choose more appropriate theme and cue . at about 72 minute and this brief version of a classic mystery make an enjoyable time filler while suitable for family viewing .
