Storyline:
Holmes is hired by Roland Carstairs to prevent the theft of the Star of Rhodesia, a 423 carat diamond owned by Carstairs' mother, Lady Margaret. Suspecting the diamond will be stolen on a train trip from London to Edinburgh in Scotland, Holmes deftly switches diamonds with Lady Margaret while in her compartment admiring the jewel. Soon after, Roland is murdered and the fake diamond is stolen. Red herrings abound as Holmes, aided by Dr. Watson and Inspector Lestrade, discover the murderer's hiding place and deduce that long-time nemesis Professor Moriarty's henchman, Colonel Sebastian Moran, is somehow involved in the crime.

Reviews:
"There's not a second of screen time wasted in telling the tale of the Star of Rhodesia diamond that is stolen aboard an express train--and, of course, Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson and Insepctor LeStrade are all aboard the train, having been advised that someone is going to make an attempt to steal it.

This low-budget Universal entry is easily one of the best of the Universal features co-starring BASIL RATHBONE and NIGEL BRUCE. Bruce is especially funny as he decides to do some investigating himself, with amusing false clues leading him astray. Rathbone is completely suave and relaxed as Holmes, less snappy than usual in the way he treats Watson and much more likable in the role than he has been in other entries.

The plot abounds with the usual assortment of suspicious characters, but of all the supporting players ALAN MOBRAY is the one who stands out as the man who befriends Watson.

Despite the low-budget trimmings and overuse of miniatures to show a train racing through the fog at night, the story is taut and the whole affair is intriguing enough to keep you watching until the unusual ending--where a double twist is completely unexpected.

Highly enjoyable Holmes adventure, well-paced and entertaining."

MR. BASIL RATHBONE IS THE BEST MR. SHERLOCK HOLMES. ONE OF VERY FEW REASONS TO LIKE YOUTUBE. FINDING THESE GEMS FROM THE PAST.

[sixwingsram]

Another masterpiece of Conan Doyle's series of Holmes mysteries with Nigel Bruce who is a perfect Dr. Watson as Basil Rathbone was the most perfect Sherlock Holmes among the many portrayals by various actors. Just the best!

[johnmehaffey]

I’ve got all of basil rathbone Sherlock films in black and white, it’s great to see them in colour

[richardhincemon]

Great movie The colorization really brings out the details in This Magnificent film!

[rogerrendzak]

My favorite Sherlock Holmes film, AND now, in color😁!!! That DEFINITELY adds, to the viewing experience. Seems to be time compressed. The vocals are sped up, slightly.

[JohnMiller-yhlj]

I love Sherlock Holmes movies no matter who is in it or if it's black and white or color. The only problem I have is no one today knows what or how to make a good movie. 🙏😇🇺🇸

[nayranay]

Lestrade and Watson two funny caracters . Make me laugh🤣🤣

[elysiryuu]

Awesome job, I really appreciate the effort of preserving these films and giving them new life!

[rebeccacullen]

It's about time., the classic all should be colorize and put in all move theaters. All children would love them

[martinarch]

It's even better in colour but the black and one is a classic film

[LA-ARCH]

Amazing how Universal Studios made this movie on their backlots in Hollywood with the sets and backgrounds resembling England 😊

[christiandejesusgarciatruj]

Este tipo de extraordinarias películas o series, me han ayudado a ser un mejor Abogado. Me han enseñado a detenerme a analizar los detalles de los asuntos que llevo. ¡Excelentes series!

[THEFORBIDDENMAN-lkof]

WOW A COLOUR VERSION OF THIS FINE FILM

[kevanhubbard]

I think that Basil Rathbone is my favorite Holmes black n white or colour although Christopher Plummer is close in his Sherlock Holmes vs Jack the Ripper film.

[drjtk]

Poor Lestrade gets his head bashed on the table after Sherlock and Watson lift him up after being knocked out! That’s adding insult to injury

[aguntuk]

sir basil rothbone and mr jeremy bretts were the closest sherlock holmes as seen by me...now a days holmes serial and movies has turned into source of amusements lacking analysis and old day charm

[whiteheatherclub]

Mock and Sun? Sound more like a firm making footwear than coffins. A little investigation into Britain's railway system seems to be required by the producer of this film: if you want to go by train to Edinburgh you get a train from King's Cross, not Euston.

[valerieminster]

This reminds me of Agatha Christie. That oaf Watson is hard to take.

[jeanettecook]

Apparently unbilled in the movie is the young woman escorting the casket. Does anyone know what this actress' name was?🎉

[Swybryd-Nation]

She was a stunner but her accent was laughable.
