Description

We conclude our month of discussions around the 1970s interpretations of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes. We wrap up with 1979’s Murder by Decree. Directed by Bob Clark, the film is a mix of British and Canadian actors including Christopher Plummer as Sherlock Holmes and James Mason as Doctor Watson. The fictional pair are put on the path of the very real Jack the Ripper, one of Britain’s most famous serial killers. Aaron Peterson and David MacGregor join Mike to discuss the film while S. Brent Morris (The Complete Idiot's Guide to Freemasonry) talks about Masons and Susan Clark dishes about her illustrious career.
