The Man Who Was Sherlock Holmes
A lighthearted 1930s comedy built on mistaken identity and parody, where two con artists impersonate Holmes and Watson while stumbling through a crime caper.
Two dubious characters disguise themselves as Holmes and Watson to gain attention and end up chasing counterfeiters and stolen stamps.
