Description
"Holmes could be rude, impatient, abrupt, and his intolerance of fools was legendary. I tried to show all this, all of the mans incredible brilliance. But there are some cracks in Holmess marble, as in an almost-perfect Rodin statue. And I tried to show that, too. Its difficult for me to say what I may have given to the image of Holmes. Faithful to Conan Doyles text, certainly. Also, Ive tried to bring out the emotion that is there in Holmes. On the surface he seems a cold, sometimes dark, rather off-putting figure. But deeper down, I think, hes a man of feeling." Jeremy
Jeremy Brett is still recognised as the most celebrated incarnation of Sherlock Holmes which he presented for ten years. Jeremy delighted viewers with his dashing, arrogant, moody interpretation of the most popular famous detective he brought a brooding intensity to his finest role - one of disturbing power. He is still called the definitive Sherlock Holmes.
Important Note: This book is an extract from the 468 page biography, Jeremy Brett - Playing a Part - this book contains the Sherlock Holmes section only. If you already have the full book then there is minimal additional content here. We wanted, however, to make a Sherlock Holmes specific version available.
