Happy Birthday, Vlad!!

I’ll be going to the library soon, but in the meantime, I decided I needed a little levity in my day so I put in “Sherlock Holmes” with Robert Downey, Jr and Jude Law. Seventeen minutes into it, and it’s proving to be quite funny. I’ve seen it once before, but was concentrating on the special effects.

I like Robert Downey, Jr! But, of course, my all-time favorite was Basil Rathbone. In this version, Holmes and Watson are an enormously entertaining pair, whereas, the original paired Holmes with himself and the occasional Watson for a straight man.
