Please note this is also available in - THE EUROCRYPT OF CHRISTOPHER LEE COLLECTION "WHAT A WONDERFUL HOLMES... Lee's interpretation of the character is one of the finest ever." DVD Drive-In THE FIRST AUTHORIZED U.S. DISC RELEASE OF LEE'S ONLY MOVIE PERFORMANCE AS HOLMES Shortly after their hit collaboration on THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES, Christopher Lee and director Terence Fisher (HORROR OF DRACULA) returned to Holmesiana for Lee's sole feature film portrayal of the world's greatest detective. Shot in Berlin with Hammer regular Thorley Walters as Dr. Watson, Lee considered it to be "one of the best things I've ever done because I tried to play Holmes really as he was written – as a very intolerant, argumentative, difficult man." Senta Berger (WHEN WOMEN HAD TAILS) and Ivan Desney (THE MARRIAGE OF MARIA BRAUN) co-star in this 1962 West German-French-Italian co-production produced by Artur Brauner (VAMPYROS LESBOS) from a screenplay by Curt Siodmak (THE WOLF MAN) and based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Valley Of Fear, now scanned in 2K from the German negative.
