Dressed to Kill (1946)
(Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Code)
Country: US
Technical: bw 72m
Director: Roy William Neil
Cast: Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce, Patricia Morison
Synopsis:
Holmes investigates a series of murders surrounding the possession of a trio of music boxes, each transpiring to contain a stolen Bank of England plate.
Review:
The curious US title can only refer to the gowned femme fatale, played by the statuesque Miss Morison, but this is a very tired close to the Rathbone/Bruce series, with the characterisations of the leads reduced to all their B-movie simplicity.
