The Noble Bachelor


The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor is one of the fifty six gems written about Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. This is the rare story in the Return of Sherlock Holmes editions. It portrays Holmes suffering with visions and delusions of his famous fall with Moriarty and his near death experiences. This story also tells us how dreams can sometimes foreshadow events in a man's life. A very well woven tale about Lord Robert St. Simon, the eligible bachelor who was thrice married and the doomed fate of Ladies Helena, Maud and Henrietta Doran. Jeremy Brett is as usual superb as Sherlock Holmes and no other has played Holmes better than him. This is a great film. http://youtu.be/mIwii9CmFC0
