The Hound of the Baskervilles (1959)

Harish Madousoudanane

When Sir Charles Baskerville dies unexpectedly, his nephew and heir Sir Henry returns from South Africa. Dr. Mortimer, the local doctor, is concerned about Sir Henry's safety as he is convinced that Sir Charles was literally frightened to death. He consults Sherlock Holmes and recounts the tale of one Sir Hugo Baskerville who, several generations previously, had been killed by a huge hound and which now is believed by some to be a curse on the family. Holmes agrees to take on the case and it almost immediately becomes apparent that Sir Henry's life is in danger. Holmes doesn't believe in the legend of the Baskervilles or the supposed curse place upon them and sets out to find a more practical solution.

00:00:00You

00:00:30You

00:01:00You

00:01:24Know then the legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles.

00:01:27Know then that the great hall of Baskervilles

00:01:31was once held by Sir Hugo of that name.

00:01:34A wild, profane, and godless man.

00:01:37An evil man in truth.

00:01:40For there was with him a certain ugly and cruel humor

00:01:43that made his name a byword in the county.

00:01:50My friend learned swiftly.

00:01:52Aye.

00:01:53He's already learned to fly like a wildfowl

00:01:57and now he swims like a waterfowl.

00:02:04Shall we see how he roasts?

00:02:06Fetties!

00:02:10By the time the night is on, our friend will know better

00:02:12than to condemn the sport of his masters.

00:02:19Come on out!

00:02:20Come on out!

00:02:29Here he comes, Sir Hugo!

00:02:31Here he is, Sir Hugo!

00:02:33Here he is, Sir Hugo!

00:02:34Now our waterfowl has become guinea-fowl.

00:02:45Guinea pig more likely.

00:02:47A bird or beast will still make him sing like a nightingale.

00:02:50No, Sir!

00:02:51This may teach you to criticise my pleasures!

00:02:54If it were anyone but my own daughter, Master!

00:02:55You should be proud that a basketball should so much as

00:02:57look at your miserable child!

00:02:59No!

00:03:00No, no!

00:03:01The game was spoiled before the wager was laid!

00:03:05No, no!

00:03:06The game was spoiled before the wager was laid!

00:03:23You don't crowd me, Sirs, I pray you!

00:03:27I will not pay!

00:03:31Well, if I must, I must!

00:03:33But not in gold!

00:03:35Not in gold?

00:03:36In kind!

00:03:37In kind!

00:03:38With a plaything I was keeping for myself!

00:03:44I accept!

00:03:46Where is the girl?

00:03:47Girl?

00:03:48What talk is this of a girl I know of no girl?

00:03:54Enough, enough!

00:03:55You shall see her at once!

00:03:56And you shall see her before Sir Richard bursts with passion!

00:03:59See to it that there will be no fighting among your herd of rams!

00:04:05See to the end of the goddess!

00:04:07Come on!

00:04:08You shall see her in more behaviour!

00:04:10Come on!

00:04:11Come on!

00:04:12Let's go.

00:04:42She's got away.

00:05:03What does she think I am that she does this to me?

00:05:09I have her now.

00:05:16You there, let loose the pack.

00:05:19And you, my hunter at the door.

00:05:22Set the hounds on her.

00:05:24Hounds! Let loose the pack!

00:05:29Let loose the pack!

00:05:36Get her!

00:05:37Get her!

00:05:38My friend, you cannot do this!

00:05:43My friend, you cannot do this.

00:06:00I'll get her!

00:06:02May the hounds of hell take me if I can't hand her down!

00:06:13Come on!

00:06:31Let's go.

00:10:56Let's go.

00:10:57Let's go.

00:10:58Let's go.

00:10:59Good has come.

00:11:00Good dazu, sir.

00:11:01Dr. Mortimer, it was something more important that brought you all the way from Devonshire to Baker Street.

00:11:05Something that occurred on Dartmoor on Friday the 13th of June.

00:11:09You've known about it all the time then?

00:11:11I know nothing except that you live of Dartmoor.

00:11:14You have a copy of the Devon County Chronicle in your briefcase dated June the 14th.

00:11:18That newspaper is published on Saturdays but goes to press on Thursdays.

00:11:21You've kept it for something vitally important.

00:11:24There is nothing of particular interest in the headlines therefore it must be in the stock press.

00:11:27So, whatever it was happened on the Friday, Friday the 13th of June.

00:11:31But this is remarkable.

00:11:33Superficial. There's nothing remarkable about using one's eyes.

00:11:36Now, sir, would you be prepared to give us the relevant facts?

00:11:40Yes. Yes, under the circumstances, I think I would.

00:11:44Proceed.

00:11:46Well, this is just the stock press.

00:11:48Devonshire Knight found dead.

00:11:50The body of Sir Charles Baskerville discovered on Darkmoor early today.

00:11:54Foul play not suspected.

00:11:57Of course, the account in the next edition is much fuller.

00:12:00Where are we?

00:12:02Yes, here we are.

00:12:04The death of Sir Charles Baskerville has caused much sadness in the small village of Grimpen, Darkmoor.

00:12:09Dr. Richard Mortimer, a well-known Devonshire personality, said today that...

00:12:14If you'll pardon me, Dr. Mortimer, I want just the plain facts in your own words.

00:12:20Please.

00:12:22Very well.

00:12:24The plain facts of the matter are that a fortnight ago, Sir Charles Baskerville was found lying dead on the moor.

00:12:30Who found him?

00:12:31His servant, Barrymore.

00:12:33He and his wife are housekeepers up at Baskerville Hall.

00:12:36He fetched me at once and took me straight back to the body.

00:12:39Where was the body?

00:12:40Somewhere on Dartmoor, I know.

00:12:41But exactly where?

00:12:42It's a very large place.

00:12:43Near the abbey ruins up on the hill.

00:12:45Not far from Baskerville Hall.

00:12:48The place where Sir Hugo died in the legend.

00:12:51And the circumstances were exactly the same.

00:12:54You mean that Sir Charles had been attacked?

00:12:56That his throat had been torn out?

00:12:58Oh, no, no, no.

00:12:59No, the body was untouched.

00:13:01But his face.

00:13:03Never in all my medical career have I seen such a look of horror on a dead person.

00:13:09Sir Charles must have been terrified when he died.

00:13:13But he was alone.

00:13:15The strange thing was, there were no footprints, Mr. Holmes.

00:13:20That cannot be quite true, can it?

00:13:22They were the servant Barrymore's, for instance?

00:13:24Your own and Sir Charles's?

00:13:25Oh, yes, of course.

00:13:26But what I meant to say was, there were no other footprints.

00:13:30Facts are only of value when they're clear, concise and correct, Dr. Mortimer.

00:13:33Pray continue.

00:13:34And there was another strange thing.

00:13:37Sir Charles must have been tiptoeing back to Baskerville Hall when he died.

00:13:42I could tell that because the footmark showed only the toes of his boots.

00:13:46There were no heel marks.

00:13:48I'm something of an archaeologist in my spare time,

00:13:50and so I'm used to looking for the extraordinary.

00:13:53You have not yet told us what Sir Charles died of before you do so.

00:13:57I suggest it was heart failure.

00:13:59Well, the inquest found that he died of arteriosclerosis,

00:14:02with disease of the coronary arteries.

00:14:05A condition of the heart that can lead to heart failure.

00:14:11Heart failure.

00:14:12Yes, I think it must be hereditary with the Baskervilles.

00:14:15They all seem to suffer from the same weakness.

00:14:18Is there a successor to the family title?

00:14:20Yes.

00:14:21Sir Henry Baskerville.

00:14:23He's due to arrive in London tonight from Johannesburg.

00:14:28Why have you come to me, Dr. Mortimer,

00:14:30when you really don't believe that I can help you?

00:14:32I don't think I know what you mean.

00:14:35I think you do.

00:14:36Excuse me.

00:14:38Although you knew Sir Charles died of natural causes,

00:14:42you've implied that he met a more horrible death,

00:14:44that he might have encountered this hound of hell,

00:14:46the curse of the Baskervilles.

00:14:48Do you really believe that legend?

00:14:50There are many things in life and death

00:14:52that we do not understand, Mr. Holmes.

00:14:54Then I suggest you might have done better

00:14:56to have consulted a priest instead of a detective.

00:14:58Do you imagine that I can influence the powers of darkness?

00:15:00Of course not.

00:15:01But I thought you might prevent Sir Henry from going into danger.

00:15:04My dear Sir, it's an evil curse on the family.

00:15:07It can be just as powerful in London as in Devonshire.

00:15:10Where believe he's staying?

00:15:11At the Northumberland Hotel.

00:15:13Does this mean then that you will investigate the matter?

00:15:16I have not said so.

00:15:17My commitments are heavy.

00:15:19I beg of you, Mr. Holmes.

00:15:20This is a matter of life and death.

00:15:22Well, there can be no harm done by my seeing the man.

00:15:25Shall we say 10 o'clock tomorrow morning at the hotel?

00:15:29Good.

00:15:30That will suit admirably.

00:15:32Thank you, Mr. Holmes.

00:15:34You will not find me ungenerous in the matter of fees.

00:15:38My professional charges are upon a fixed scale.

00:15:41I do not vary them except when I remit them altogether.

00:15:44Good day.

00:15:46Good day, Mr. Holmes.

00:15:50Thank you, Doctor.

00:15:52Not at all, Doctor.

00:15:54Good day, Doctor Watson.

00:15:55Well, ha!

00:15:56I must say, you never cease to surprise me, Holmes.

00:15:58First you tear the man apart, and then you say that you'll help him.

00:16:00My dear Watson, you ought to know me better by now.

00:16:02I had to burst the balloon, deflect the man's pomposity,

00:16:03to find one significant clue.

00:16:04Well, I saw nothing of significance in anything he said.

00:16:05I'm surprised you bothered with the man.

00:16:06Nevertheless, one important point did emerge.

00:16:07Didn't you notice anything else?

00:16:08Well, I saw nothing of significance in anything he said.

00:16:09I saw nothing of significance in anything he said.

00:16:10I'm surprised you bothered with the man.

00:16:11Nevertheless, one important point did emerge.

00:16:12Didn't you notice anything odd in what he told us?

00:16:13Well, the only thing odd I noticed was when he said that Sir Charles was tiptoeing about Dartmoor in the middle of the night.

00:16:30That's just it, Watson.

00:16:31Well done, my boy.

00:16:32But he wasn't tiptoeing.

00:16:33He was running.

00:16:34Running for his life.

00:16:35Running in panic until he burst his heart.

00:16:37Now, would you mind sorting out a large-scale method, Dartmoor, my dear fellow,

00:16:42while I find some more tobacco?

00:16:43This, I think, is a two-pipe problem.

00:16:56Come in.

00:17:00So you finally managed to get here?

00:17:02I was not aware that we had kept you.

00:17:05Kept me?

00:17:06I sent for you over 20 minutes ago.

00:17:08Well, I think, perhaps, you've made a mistake.

00:17:11Yes, I've made a mistake, all right.

00:17:13The mistake I made was never coming to this hotel.

00:17:15What have you been able to find out about my other boot?

00:17:18They were both here when I put them out to be cleaned last night.

00:17:21Nobody knows.

00:17:22Porter, the maid, the boot boy.

00:17:24Nobody in this hotel of yours knows where the other one's gone to.

00:17:28You're the manager.

00:17:30Perhaps you'll be good enough to tell me just what you do with all your boots.

00:17:33I'm a few minutes late, I'm afraid.

00:17:35Those confounded horse buses.

00:17:37However, I see you both made each other's acquaintance,

00:17:40so we might as well get down to business, eh?

00:17:42We have not yet been given an opportunity to introduce ourselves.

00:17:45Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:17:46Please let me.

00:17:47Sir Henry, let me introduce Mr. Sherlock Holmes,

00:17:50Dr. Watson, Sir Henry Baskerville.

00:17:53I'm afraid you're a little late, Mortimer.

00:17:55I've already managed to make quite a fool of myself.

00:18:00Gentlemen, I must ask you to accept my apologies.

00:18:02Dr. Watson, Mr. Holmes.

00:18:04How do you do?

00:18:05Very glad to meet you both.

00:18:06I'm sorry if I'm embarrassed to.

00:18:07Please say no more about it.

00:18:08It was quite understandable.

00:18:09Yes, indeed.

00:18:10I hope that the missing boots will turn up very soon.

00:18:14So do I.

00:18:15I can understand somebody wanting to steal a pair of boots, but one...

00:18:18Well, there it is.

00:18:20Please sit down, gentlemen.

00:18:21Oh, thank you.

00:18:25Now, Mr. Holmes.

00:18:26Dr. Mortimer has no doubt explained why he's asked us to come here.

00:18:30He has, and I may as well tell you I consider him to have been somewhat hasty in asking for your advice.

00:18:36Oh, I'm sure it was only to protect your interests.

00:18:39He has told you of the legend of the Hound of the Baskervilles.

00:18:42Yes, but I don't attach any importance to that sort of old wives' tale.

00:18:45A man out of my own heart.

00:18:47You intend to go down to Devonshire and live at Baskerville Hall?

00:18:50I've already come a very long way, Mr. Holmes, to do exactly that.

00:18:53And nothing is going to stop me.

00:18:55You can understand that, surely.

00:18:56I can indeed.

00:18:58The estate must be worth a vast amount of money.

00:19:00Exactly how much, Dr. Mortimer?

00:19:02You will forgive me if I ask what may seem a very personal question.

00:19:05Of course.

00:19:06Well?

00:19:07Well, when everything's settled up, I suppose, hmm, close on a million pounds.

00:19:11Hmm.

00:19:12Did anyone else benefit under Sir Charles's will?

00:19:15Yes.

00:19:16He left the Barrymores a thousand pounds, which I thought was rather too generous.

00:19:21And I myself received something.

00:19:23How much?

00:19:24Come, Mr. Holmes, is this really necessary?

00:19:26I would not have asked otherwise.

00:19:29Very well.

00:19:31He left me forty thousand pounds.

00:19:33But then you see, I was Sir Charles's best friend.

00:19:36Were there no other relatives?

00:19:38No.

00:19:39Sir Henry is the last of the Baskervilles.

00:19:42That's why I'm so anxious to safeguard his interests.

00:19:45Oh, very wise of you.

00:19:47One thing is certain, Sir Henry.

00:19:49On no account must you go down to Devonshire alone.

00:19:51Oh, that's all taken care of.

00:19:53Dr. Mortimer's coming with me.

00:19:54Dr. Mortimer will have his practices to attend to.

00:19:57I can look after myself, Mr. Holmes.

00:19:59I must impress upon you that I believe your life to be in some considerable danger.

00:20:04Now, look, Mr. Holmes, if you attach so much importance to this,

00:20:07why don't you come down to Dartmoor with me today?

00:20:09You can pack a bag before the train leaves.

00:20:11You're going today?

00:20:12I can't possibly leave town until the end of the week at least.

00:20:16Watson.

00:20:17You're free at the moment, aren't you?

00:20:20Well, yes, I am.

00:20:22If you think I could do the job.

00:20:24You're the very man for it.

00:20:25That's settled then.

00:20:26You'll go down with them.

00:20:27We'll keep in touch by telegram.

00:20:29Sir Henry.

00:20:31I am not a man to overestimate danger,

00:20:33but I must insist upon one thing.

00:20:35Under no circumstances

00:20:37are you to venture out onto the moor alone at night.

00:20:43Oh, very well.

00:20:44As things have gone as far as this,

00:20:45I'll do as you say for the moment.

00:20:47But I'm not yet convinced that I need the services of a detective at all.

00:20:53Unless it helped me find my other boots.

00:20:56Sir Henry, keep perfectly still if you value your life.

00:21:26Move your head.

00:21:28Carefully.

00:21:29I...

00:21:30can't.

00:21:31You must.

00:21:32You must.

00:21:33I am.

00:21:36You must.

00:21:37Come.

00:21:38My face.

00:21:39I can't.

00:21:40You must.

00:21:41My face.

00:21:42I have trouble.

00:21:43I am.

00:21:44I am.

00:21:45What the fuck?

00:21:46I am!

00:21:47I am.

00:21:48I am.

00:21:49I am.

00:21:50I am not.

00:21:51I am.

00:21:52I am.

00:21:53Yes.

00:21:54He is.

00:21:55He has.

00:21:56He has.

00:21:57He has.

00:21:58He's and I am.

00:21:59What a filthy thing. Horrible.

00:22:06You've had a lucky escape,

00:22:08but we must make certain never to be caught with our guard again.

00:22:12You're suggesting that that thing was put in there deliberately?

00:22:16The powers of evil can take many forms.

00:22:19Remember that, Sir Henry, when you're at Baskerville Hall.

00:22:22Do as the legend tells,

00:22:24and avoid them more when the forces of darkness are exalted.

00:22:28The End

00:22:49Move it.

00:22:54Are you sure you don't want us to take you into the village, Mortimer?

00:22:56quite sure it'll only take you out of your way whereas it's only a short walk across the moor

00:23:22you wouldn't know about it one of our largest prisons commonly called dartmoor lies only seven

00:23:26miles across the moor it appears that one of the prisoners has broken out selden yes i remember

00:23:33the case he murdered a number of street women i thought you hanged people for murder in this

00:23:39country oh there was some talk of him being insane though they sentenced him to life imprisonment

00:23:44instead won't do him no good though sir escaping he'll only starve himself to death out there

00:23:50or something worse what do you mean by that why not nothing sir just my foolishness

00:23:58i feel you should let us take you into the village mortimer he might be anywhere out there

00:24:02don't you worry about me i can look after myself goodbye goodbye all right perkins here

00:24:19curse upon the family unhappiness and death to his descendants that's what he left sir henry

00:24:27certainly has a lot to answer for what about this one here

00:24:32that was another picture of sir hugo

00:24:35it disappeared under mysterious circumstances some months back you mean it was stolen in the middle of

00:24:39the night and what steps were taken to recover it

00:24:42and your uncle called in the police from exeter but they could find no trace

00:24:49well one picture of that scoundrel is more than enough

00:24:52what do you say watson

00:24:55well your glass is empty please no you must be bored to tears by all this rigmarole about my family

00:25:00you must think me a terrible host oh not at all not at all i found it extremely interesting have you

00:25:06well it's very nice of you to say sir barrymore sir would you and your good wife care to join me in a

00:25:13toast it's most kind of you sir henry

00:25:19let us drink to my first day at baskerville hall

00:25:23and to my firm belief that the family curse is nothing but a legend

00:25:27and that the hound of hell will never again bring fear to those on the moor at night

00:25:43i must ask you to excuse my wife's behavior sir henry she was most upset by sir charles's death

00:25:49her nerves have been in a bad way ever since i'm very sorry to hear that barrymore

00:25:53watson you can give her something for her nerves can't you yes yes of course i will oh uh barrymore

00:26:01since you've mentioned sir charles's death perhaps you could tell us a little more about it

00:26:06you were the first to discover the body weren't you that's correct it was terrible sir i never saw

00:26:12such a dreadful look on anybody's face before you found sir charles's body up near the old abbey i

00:26:20understand what made you go up there to look for him i didn't sir i was on my way to tell dr mortimer

00:26:27that he was missing and then i then i saw sir charles lying there dead but what made you decide to

00:26:35go across the moor to look for sir charles i've had a look at a map of the locality and surely it would

00:26:41have been quicker for you to have taken the trap and gone by road there's a shortcut across the moor

00:26:46barrymore did you go across the moor because you were half expecting to find sir charles there

00:26:54because of the legend well you know about the legend of the hand of the baskervilles don't you

00:27:01do you believe it do you really believe that there is a creature out there

00:27:07i don't know what to believe sir all i know is that i've heard it heard its terrible howl on the

00:27:16night before sir charles died and i never want to hear such a sound again in all my life

00:27:37so

00:27:44so

00:28:50Can I help you, sir?

00:28:52Oh, no, thank you.

00:28:53No, thank you.

00:28:54It's gone away.

00:28:55Oh, dammit!

00:28:56I could have done with that.

00:28:57Excellent specimen of Coleopteros cabres.

00:28:59I collect them, you know.

00:29:01No, thank you. No, thank you. It's gone away.

00:29:03Oh, dammit, I could have done with that.

00:29:05It's an excellent specimen of Coleopterus capers.

00:29:08I collect them, you know.

00:29:11Why, it's Henry, eh?

00:29:13It is?

00:29:14Yeah, the Baskerville mouth.

00:29:16I could have recognized you anywhere, even among the natives.

00:29:19That's Franklin, is the name.

00:29:21Franklin, Bishop of the Outer Isles, for what they're worth.

00:29:26Very glad to meet you, sir.

00:29:28Won't you come in?

00:29:29Hurry.

00:29:35Yes, how good, how very good to see a new owner of Baskerville Hall, eh?

00:29:42Oh, well, no, that's not quite what I meant.

00:29:46Poor Sir Charles.

00:29:48Oh, what a splendid fellow he was.

00:29:51So you knew my uncle?

00:29:53Knew him, my dear fellow? We were the greatest friends.

00:29:56How many times Sir Charles and I have discussed life, you know.

00:30:00Yeah.

00:30:02Over, over a glass of sherry.

00:30:05Well, in that case, Bishop, perhaps you'd care to join me in a glass of sherry now.

00:30:09Now, you mention sherry.

00:30:11I think perhaps I might like a glass.

00:30:14I saw Bishop Franklin's coming up the drive, Sir Henry.

00:30:17Very well.

00:30:18Oh, still the faithful retainer, eh?

00:30:26Are you, Sir Henry?

00:30:27No, thank you very well.

00:30:28You know, it's the best sherry in Devon.

00:30:31I always say, oh, Sir Charles knew his creature comforts all right.

00:30:34I've seen him with some very attractive creatures at times.

00:30:38Yes.

00:30:39Yes, he knew a woman when he saw one, did Sir Charles?

00:30:43Oh, yes.

00:30:45Poor fellow.

00:30:46Will he rest in peace?

00:30:48What a loss.

00:30:49Oh, thank you.

00:30:52Do you know, I think I should like another glass, yes.

00:30:55Oh, Watson, I don't think you've met the Bishop.

00:30:58Mr. Franklin, Dr. Watson.

00:31:00How do you do, huh?

00:31:02Watson, you say the name is?

00:31:04Yes, well, I knew a Watson in Caprino.

00:31:06Yes, a notorious white slave.

00:31:08A nice fellow, though.

00:31:09A relation of yours?

00:31:10No, sir.

00:31:11Not that I know of.

00:31:13But, of course, it is possible.

00:31:15You've come to approve the new Lord of the Manor, I imagine.

00:31:19I think that's necessary.

00:31:22But why have I come?

00:31:23I...

00:31:24Oh, yes, of course, the jumble sale.

00:31:26Jumble sale?

00:31:27What an estess.

00:31:28Oh, it's a colloquial expression, Sir Henry.

00:31:30It's, well, sale of oddments, Sir Henry.

00:31:32I was wondering if you had anything you could spare for us.

00:31:35An odd tablecloth or an old suit or some, well, cast-off silver?

00:31:40I'm quite sure I can. I'd ask Mrs. Barrymore.

00:31:42Well, that's very kind of you.

00:31:43May I give you the address in which you could have them sent?

00:31:48And I'm sure we shall all be very grateful to you.

00:31:52Very grateful, indeed, if you'd have them sent there.

00:31:56And I shan't apologize for the check.

00:31:59It's really rather charming.

00:32:01All things bright and beautiful.

00:32:05Well, I'm just going down to the village

00:32:07to leave some instructions at the post office, Sir Henry.

00:32:10If you'll excuse me, my Lord Bishop.

00:32:12Well, dear fellow, of course.

00:32:13I'll give you a lift on the tricycle,

00:32:14but I want to chat with Sir Henry.

00:32:17Goodbye.

00:32:18Goodbye.

00:32:19I'm afraid you'll be expected to open the sale, Sir Henry, yes,

00:32:22and judge the prettiest mother and baby.

00:32:25Do you know, dear old Sir Charles, he loved doing that.

00:32:29Yeah, he did.

00:32:30I remember one occasion when one of the babies went,

00:32:35oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear.

00:32:37Oh, dear.

00:32:38Bowl-billyre ти.

00:32:39I'll see you.

00:32:43This is theOb ecstasy.

00:32:45This is the

00:33:02Don't move. Stay where you are.

00:33:27I said not to move, sir.

00:33:32You've no call to use that kind of trap. It's unnecessarily cruel.

00:33:39The man's got to live, sir.

00:33:41Other ways of killing animals without torturing them.

00:33:43Why don't you use a gun?

00:33:48Oh. I'm sorry.

00:33:51Besides, cartridges cost money.

00:33:53Some of us haven't got much of that to spend.

00:33:55It's a poor life on the moor, Sir Henry.

00:33:57I'm afraid you've made a mistake. My name is Watson.

00:34:00Well, I am staying at Baskerville Hall.

00:34:02With Sir Henry?

00:34:03Yes.

00:34:05When you see the new squire, tell him his new neighbor would like to meet him.

00:34:08I farm the lower partures near the hall.

00:34:10I've done for nearly a year.

00:34:12Poor land it is, too.

00:34:14What name is it?

00:34:15Stapledon.

00:34:17Very well. I'll tell Sir Henry.

00:34:19I wonder, could you tell me how to get to Baskerville Hall?

00:34:23I seem to have lost my way.

00:34:25You'll bear right at the fork.

00:34:29Mr. Watson, don't step off the track or you'll find yourself in Gripenmire.

00:34:34Once in there, you'll never get out.

00:34:38Good morning.

00:35:06Good morning.

00:35:06I wonder, could you tell me, am I on the right path to Baskerville Hall?

00:35:14The track seems to end here.

00:35:16Hey, watch out!

00:35:26The mire!

00:35:36Hey!

00:35:38Hey, I say!

00:35:41Hey!

00:35:41Cecile, come back!

00:35:56Hold on.

00:36:02Cecile!

00:36:03Cecile!

00:36:04Wait, my girl, I'll teach you to come when you're cold.

00:36:17Now, get the cart down as be here as you can. Be quick about it.

00:36:32What'll you do as you told, girl?

00:36:36I told you to watch out.

00:36:38Who is that girl?

00:36:41My daughter.

00:36:43The moor's no place for a girl.

00:36:46What was she frightened of?

00:36:47There's a convict escaped from the prison.

00:36:50I'll help you to the cart.

00:36:52Watch where I step.

00:36:52Thanks.

00:37:11Now that you're here, would you like to come in and see Sir Henry?

00:37:14It's as good a time as any.

00:37:15Oh, and, uh, how about Miss Stapleton? Would she like to come in, too?

00:37:20She'll wait where she is.

00:37:22Very well.

00:37:24Well, uh, good morning, Miss Stapleton.

00:37:39Hello.

00:37:40If you're looking for the new owner, I'm afraid you won't find him at home.

00:37:43Go away.

00:37:44I haven't introduced myself yet.

00:37:48I'm Henry Baskerville.

00:37:49May I ask?

00:37:50Please, go away.

00:37:53My father will be out in a moment.

00:37:56Sir, your father's gone into the hall, has he?

00:37:58Well, let's join him.

00:37:59No, don't.

00:38:01Here.

00:38:02Here, wait a minute.

00:38:12Leave me alone.

00:38:13Just a minute.

00:38:15Calm down.

00:38:18Now, why did you run away?

00:38:20Well, come on, why did you run away?

00:38:21I've done nothing to frighten you.

00:38:23My father.

00:38:25What about your father?

00:38:26He would have seen us.

00:38:27Well, what of it?

00:38:28Now, would you let me go?

00:38:38Cecil?

00:38:39Cecil!

00:38:39Where have you been?

00:38:51Come on, girl.

00:38:52Where have you been?

00:38:54Morning.

00:38:56Morning.

00:38:56Sir Henry Baskerville, isn't it?

00:38:58Yes.

00:38:59I'll be looking forward to meeting you, sir.

00:39:01My name's Stapleton.

00:39:02Welcome to Doubtmore.

00:39:04You're very kind.

00:39:05I run the home farm.

00:39:06You'll be very welcome whenever you're that way.

00:39:08Well, we must be getting on our way.

00:39:10Mustn't be, Cecil.

00:39:13Good day to you, sir.

00:39:14Good day, Mr. Stapleton.

00:39:15Come on.

00:39:16Come on.

00:39:17Come on.

00:39:45Good day, Mr. Stapleton.

00:40:15What's the cat?

00:40:43Move the candle about.

00:40:49Quickly.

00:40:50I'll swear I saw a light out there on the moor as soon as you picked up the candle.

00:40:57There's someone out there signaling to the house.

00:40:59Come on.

00:40:59Whatever happens, sir Henry, you must stay with me.

00:41:14We're still in line with the light.

00:41:33Yes, but we're not near enough yet.

00:41:35Keep close to me.

00:41:36Don't go off to the left or you'll be in Grimpen Mire.

00:41:38Don't go off to the left or you'll be in Grimpen Mire.

00:41:41Come on.

00:41:42Come on.

00:41:43Come on.

00:41:44Come on.

00:41:45Come on.

00:41:46Come on.

00:41:47Come on.

00:41:48There's a chance.

00:41:49There's a chance.

00:41:50There's a chance.

00:41:51There's a chance.

00:41:52Right.

00:41:53Come on.

00:41:54Come out! We're on!

00:42:00They're gone.

00:42:03Whoever they are, they must have heard us.

00:42:08Watson!

00:42:11Come on! There's still a chance.

00:42:24Quiet, listen. He's down there somewhere.

00:42:40What was that, Watson? What was that?

00:42:51It's my heart.

00:42:55Can you bring some of this?

00:43:03Will you be able to get back if I help you?

00:43:07I'll try.

00:43:09Come on, then.

00:43:19That is for me to decide, Sir Henry.

00:43:21I suggest that you have a little rest. Good night.

00:43:25Good night.

00:43:32I really don't know why he bothered to send me, but he was.

00:43:35After all, as a doctor, you're just as capable as I am.

00:43:38Does your diagnosis confirm mine?

00:43:40He has a similar heart condition to his uncle, agreed.

00:43:44Hereditary, no doubt.

00:43:46But nowhere near so far advanced.

00:43:48All the same, I'd like to leave him in your charge until I get back.

00:43:52If you insist.

00:43:54Anyway, my night's sleep is ruined.

00:43:56But I really can't see that it's necessary.

00:43:58Nevertheless, I'd appreciate it if you would stay.

00:44:00It's essential that I go back to the moor.

00:44:03All right. Now stay.

00:44:05Now stay.

00:44:35Now stay.

00:44:36Now stay.

00:44:37Now stay.

00:44:39Now stay.

00:44:43Now stay.

00:44:45After all, I have a full-timeGuess.

00:44:47Let's go back.

00:44:50Now stay.

00:44:51Now stay.

00:44:53Now stay.

00:44:55Now stay.

00:44:57Now stay.

00:44:59Now stay.

00:45:00Now stay.

00:45:01Why have you left Sir Henry alone?

00:45:20Holmes.

00:45:21I repeat.

00:45:22Why have you left Sir Henry alone?

00:45:24Dr. Mortimer is with him.

00:45:26Anyone else?

00:45:27Yes, the Barrymores.

00:45:30Very well, then.

00:45:31Forgive me if my dramatic entrance startled you.

00:45:34Well, it's good to see you again, Watson.

00:45:35It's been rather lonely up here.

00:45:37This is fantastic.

00:45:39How long have you been in Devon?

00:45:40Exactly four hours and 52 minutes less than you.

00:45:43I caught the next train down after yours.

00:45:45But your telegram.

00:45:47I wrote that before I left town and arranged to have it delivered later.

00:45:50So it was you I saw.

00:45:52Well, I think you might have let me know what you intended to do, Holmes.

00:45:55I'm sorry, Watson.

00:45:56But I didn't want it known I was here.

00:45:58Besides, you would have tried to prevent me.

00:45:59You will understand.

00:46:00I had to find Selden.

00:46:02Selden, a convict?

00:46:03Well, that was madness.

00:46:05No doubt.

00:46:05But effectual.

00:46:07But how did you know he was on the moor?

00:46:09I read about it in the newspapers, Watson.

00:46:11The escape was well reported.

00:46:13I'm surprised we didn't notice it.

00:46:14He told me all he had seen since he's been hiding.

00:46:17Well, what had he seen?

00:46:18What did he tell you?

00:46:19There is more evil around us here than I have ever encountered before.

00:46:26Well, I still don't see.

00:46:27You were...

00:46:28Mortimer's gone.

00:46:50His pony car's not there.

00:46:52You told him to stay with Sir Henry.

00:46:53Well, indeed I did.

00:47:10Which way?

00:47:11For heaven's sake, which way?

00:47:13Too late.

00:47:26We're too late.

00:47:28Sir Henry.

00:47:30Watch out, Holmes.

00:47:31It's treacherous here.

00:47:33We must go back and get help.

00:47:35Then come back for the body.

00:47:37I'm to blame for this.

00:47:39I shall never forgive myself.

00:47:41I warned him.

00:47:43What good have possessed him to come out alone in the moor?

00:47:46The last of the best of us.

00:47:49His life was in our hands.

00:48:02I shall not rest until I destroy the thing that killed him.

00:48:05You're Barrymore, I take it.

00:48:26Yes, sir.

00:48:30Barrymore?

00:48:30I want you to get a ladder, some rope and lanterns, and have them loaded on the cart within five minutes.

00:48:36Do you understand?

00:48:37Yes, sir.

00:48:38Good.

00:48:39Watson, where's your room?

00:48:39Oh, this way.

00:48:40I'll show you it.

00:48:41And have those a taste of it, will you?

00:48:44Very good, sir.

00:48:47I'll trouble you for a pair of dry stout boots and a heavy coat before we go out again.

00:48:50Yes, of course.

00:48:51You know, Holmes, I can't help feeling that if I hadn't gone out and left Sir Henry alone...

00:48:56We have to avenge his death, not mourn over it.

00:48:59No.

00:48:59No, sir.

00:49:04No.

00:49:21Who's there?

00:49:41Holmes, for heaven's sake, when did you get here?

00:49:44I am glad to see you again.

00:49:46I am more than glad to see you, Sir Henry.

00:49:49Well, who was it, Holmes?

00:49:52Who was the poor devil that died instead of me?

00:49:55Well, if my deductions are correct, it was the convict Selden.

00:49:59The fellow was a murderer, I know, but he shouldn't have died in such a fashion.

00:50:02Yes, but why him?

00:50:03The curse is only on the Baskervilles.

00:50:05There's no one safe from the hound.

00:50:06Selden had on the suit of clothes you were wearing when we first met in London.

00:50:09How did he get them?

00:50:10Well, you must have broken and stolen them, I suppose.

00:50:12Possibly, but unlikely.

00:50:14Sir Henry, why did Dr. Mortimer leave so suddenly tonight?

00:50:18He told me that he'd stay until I got back.

00:50:21Stupid row, really.

00:50:23He kept on about my uncle's death and the curse on the family.

00:50:27Well, I asked him if he was trying to frighten me and told him to mind his own business.

00:50:31I should like a few words with Dr. Mortimer sometime.

00:50:33Excuse me, Sir Henry.

00:50:34Is there anything else you'll be requiring?

00:50:36No, thank you, Barrymore. Not as far as I'm concerned.

00:50:39You prepared a room for Mr. Holmes?

00:50:40Yes, sir.

00:50:41Will you still be needing the ladder and rope you asked for tonight, sir?

00:50:44No, not now.

00:50:47But I shall want them and your help first thing in the morning.

00:50:50Very good, sir.

00:50:51Oh, Barrymore.

00:50:51Sir.

00:50:53That room at the end of the corridor upstairs, has it been used lately?

00:51:01Not for some time, sir.

00:51:03I see.

00:51:04I think you'll find a candle burning near the window in that room.

00:51:07Would you kindly extinguish it?

00:51:09It's serving no useful purpose.

00:51:11Very good, sir.

00:51:19And now, with your permission, to bed.

00:51:22Yes.

00:51:23Yes, we can all do with a good night's sleep.

00:51:31And this, I perceive, is Sir Hugo Baskerville,

00:51:34the man who started all the trouble.

00:51:36Yes, it is.

00:51:37How the devil did you know?

00:51:38Oh, a family like this.

00:51:40There are certain features that are unmistakable.

00:51:42What happened to the picture that hung here?

00:51:44That one?

00:51:45Nobody knows.

00:51:46It disappeared some time ago.

00:51:47Oh, yes.

00:51:48Yes, of course, it had to.

00:51:50Stupid old man.

00:51:52Yes, well, good night.

00:51:53Well, that's strange.

00:52:03There's nothing there.

00:52:04I could have sworn that that was the spot.

00:52:07Well, it must be moreover this way.

00:52:10No, Watson.

00:52:11You were right.

00:52:12This was the place.

00:52:13Look at this.

00:52:17Here's another trace.

00:52:18And another.

00:52:23You can see where they're leading to.

00:52:28Barrymore.

00:52:29Sir.

00:52:30Tell Perkins of him in the cart up to the ruins as near as he can,

00:52:32then you follow us.

00:52:33Yes, sir.

00:52:34We won't find the body down here.

00:52:35Okay.

00:53:02My heavens, what's been going on here, Holmes?

00:53:23The Baskerville crest engraved on the hilt.

00:53:27Mr. Holmes!

00:53:32As I thought, seldom, this body's been mutilated.

00:53:44Some revolting sacrificial rite has been performed.

00:53:49What depths a human being can sink to.

00:53:52What human being could have done this?

00:53:55That is precisely what I intend to find out.

00:54:02You rang for me, sir?

00:54:12I did, Mrs. Madamar. Sit down, please.

00:54:14No, thank you, sir. I prefer to stand.

00:54:16As you wish.

00:54:17I want to ask you and your husband a few questions, if you don't mind.

00:54:21How long have you been married?

00:54:22Married?

00:54:24Must be almost five years now, isn't it?

00:54:26Is that right, Miss Selden?

00:54:28Yes, sir. We got married about...

00:54:34Please, sit down.

00:54:38Your name was Selden before you married, wasn't it?

00:54:41And the convict who escaped was your brother?

00:54:43How did you know?

00:54:45Your brother told me.

00:54:47He's dead, sir, isn't he?

00:54:49Yes, I'm afraid he is.

00:54:51How did it happen?

00:54:52You gave Selden some of Sir Henry's clothes, didn't you?

00:54:55Well, I...

00:54:57Someone, or something, who stook your brother for Sir Henry.

00:55:01You mustn't blame my husband, sir.

00:55:03I gave him the clothes.

00:55:04Sir Henry said I might take them for the village sale.

00:55:07But why should they have them when my brother was out on the moor, cold and hungry?

00:55:11Oh, I... I... I know he was bad, sir, but he was ill, really.

00:55:21And he was my brother.

00:55:22You can't leave someone you love out there, cold and starving.

00:55:28I understand.

00:55:29It might help you to know he also told me he would never let them recapture him alive.

00:55:38Come along, my dear.

00:55:39Come along, sir.

00:55:46Poor woman.

00:55:48I suppose when Sir Henry and I arrived here at the hall,

00:55:51she found it difficult to get food to her brother.

00:55:53Yes, they had to arrange a signal with a candle at the window

00:55:56to show when the coast was clear.

00:55:57Hmm.

00:55:58Couldn't, uh...

00:55:59Couldn't they be charged with helping an escaped convict?

00:56:02They could, but they won't.

00:56:04They've satisfied the local police.

00:56:06Hmm.

00:56:08Well, what's the next move?

00:56:09All things bright and beautiful, or creatures great and small.

00:56:14I wonder if that includes tarantulas.

00:56:17Tarantulas?

00:56:18But Holmes...

00:56:20A gentleman to see you, my lord.

00:56:28Oh, good, good.

00:56:29And just in time.

00:56:30I'm still having trouble with it, you know.

00:56:34Will you come and have a look at it?

00:56:35Of course, I'm not an engineering man,

00:56:38but it seems to me that this eccentric is malaligned.

00:56:41Oh, or perhaps if this can were buffed to another thou or so,

00:56:46it might make all the difference, don't you think?

00:56:48Or perhaps a shim?

00:56:49Graphite grease.

00:56:50What?

00:56:51Oh, of course.

00:56:54Well, I have.

00:56:55I have got some.

00:56:56Do you know, I never thought of it.

00:56:57Allow me.

00:56:59Oh, thank you.

00:57:00Mm-mm.

00:57:03Here.

00:57:04Silly of me.

00:57:05Here.

00:57:07There you are.

00:57:08You'll want that.

00:57:10Here.

00:57:11Now.

00:57:12Now, let's see.

00:57:13Oh, wonderful, wonderful.

00:57:16That's done the trick, yeah.

00:57:19I wish Mrs. Goodlip would leave those windows alone.

00:57:22Well, never mind.

00:57:23Take a glass of sherry before you go.

00:57:26Bishop Franklin, I...

00:57:27Oh, nonsense, a little wine for your stomach's sake.

00:57:30That's in the Bible.

00:57:31I think you'll like this.

00:57:33Now, what do I owe you for your trouble

00:57:35and your fare from Exeter, of course?

00:57:37My lord, I think you've mistaken me for someone else.

00:57:39Oh, no.

00:57:40Only somebody from Warburton and Crawley

00:57:43could have solved that problem.

00:57:44Nevertheless, I am not for Warburton and Crawley.

00:57:47Not?

00:57:48My name is Sherlock Holmes.

00:57:49I am staying with Sir Henry Baskerville.

00:57:51Oh, allow me to shake the hand

00:57:53of the country's greatest detective.

00:57:55I say, that case of the Bermondsey forgery,

00:57:57that was a first-class piece of work.

00:58:00And I am pleased to shake the hand

00:58:01of the country's most distinguished entomologist.

00:58:03You heard of me?

00:58:04Oh, how flattering.

00:58:06I know the directors

00:58:07of the Regent's Park Zoo

00:58:08regard you as the highest living authority

00:58:10on the study of rare spiders.

00:58:13Spiders?

00:58:14And it is about that very subject

00:58:15that I've come to see you.

00:58:17The species of the genus theraphosa.

00:58:19Oh, tarantula.

00:58:21Oh, dear me.

00:58:23Everybody's asking me

00:58:24about tarantulas these days.

00:58:26Oh, no, I...

00:58:29Fred, I can't help you on that subject.

00:58:31How very disappointing.

00:58:34Because I found one.

00:58:36Found one?

00:58:37Have you, by jove?

00:58:38Dead, fortunately.

00:58:40Oh, pity.

00:58:42Never mind.

00:58:43Where did you find it?

00:58:44Somewhere about the village, though, that?

00:58:46No, in London.

00:58:48Oh, up there.

00:58:49Nevertheless, it...

00:58:50it was the same spider that you lost.

00:58:52Oh, impossible.

00:58:53Far too far away.

00:58:55Are you suggesting

00:58:58that I've lost a spider?

00:59:00I'm afraid I am.

00:59:02You have, haven't you?

00:59:03You lost a spider sent you

00:59:04from the London Zoo

00:59:05about five days ago.

00:59:07Yeah.

00:59:08Are you interested in butterflies?

00:59:10My lord, I must insist.

00:59:13Will it help if I tell you

00:59:14I am fighting evil?

00:59:15Fighting it as surely as you do.

00:59:18Oh, yes, very well.

00:59:19I...

00:59:20I did lose a tarantula.

00:59:22I missed it last Thursday.

00:59:24I've been worried

00:59:25out of my life ever since.

00:59:26They're dangerous, you know.

00:59:27So I understand.

00:59:28But you needn't worry any longer.

00:59:29The spider is dead.

00:59:30Now,

00:59:31it is important

00:59:32that you answer

00:59:33this question correctly.

00:59:34What visitors did you have

00:59:36on the day you missed the tarantula?

00:59:38Visitors?

00:59:39Well, that's difficult

00:59:40because Thursday's my atone day.

00:59:43I mean,

00:59:43a lot of people like to look in

00:59:45for a sherry and a chat.

00:59:47Let me see.

00:59:47There was old Mrs. Smythe.

00:59:49Poor woman.

00:59:51Drinks.

00:59:51Oh, yes.

00:59:52Dr. Mortimer

00:59:54before lunch.

00:59:55Oh, dear old Mortimer,

00:59:56how he talks.

00:59:58Uh,

00:59:59the Stapletons to tea.

01:00:01Uh,

01:00:02oh, yes,

01:00:02the man about the woodworm

01:00:04in the belfry.

01:00:06Uh,

01:00:06fascinating little creatures,

01:00:08but the church is full on,

01:00:09you know.

01:00:10I'm extremely sorry

01:00:11to hear that.

01:00:11And the man's name?

01:00:12Smith, I think.

01:00:13And no one else?

01:00:15Last Thursday?

01:00:16No.

01:00:16Thank you, my Lord Bishop.

01:00:17That is all I wish to know.

01:00:19It has been most kind of you

01:00:20and most helpful.

01:00:21And thank you for helping me

01:00:23with my telescope.

01:00:24Not at all.

01:00:26Oh, remarkable instrument.

01:00:27It's surprising what you can see

01:00:29through a good telescope.

01:00:31Now,

01:00:31what's going on

01:00:32in the big world?

01:00:34Well, there.

01:00:36There, there, sir.

01:00:37And where's he off to?

01:00:40Oh, dear me,

01:00:40this is very interesting.

01:00:44Have a look.

01:00:46Come, come on,

01:00:46come here,

01:00:47come and have a look.

01:00:54Wow,

01:00:54he's gone.

01:01:04Anybody at home?

01:01:18Mrs. Samson?

01:01:31Why did you come here?

01:01:32I'm sorry.

01:01:34You must think me very rude.

01:01:36But I did knock.

01:01:38I've come to see your father.

01:01:39He's not here.

01:01:40He's going to Baskerville Hall.

01:01:42Is he?

01:01:43May I ask why?

01:01:44To invite you

01:01:45and your friends

01:01:46to dinner tonight.

01:01:47That's very kind of him.

01:01:51Would you like some cider?

01:01:53Thank you very much.

01:01:54I would.

01:02:01What time are we

01:02:02expected to arrive?

01:02:04You mean you will come?

01:02:06I'm looking forward to it.

01:02:09It won't be like

01:02:09Baskerville Hall.

01:02:13I haven't spent

01:02:13all my life

01:02:14at Baskerville Hall,

01:02:15Cécile.

01:02:17I like your home.

01:02:19This is not my home.

01:02:21My home is in Spain.

01:02:25You were looking

01:02:26at the picture

01:02:27of my parents.

01:02:29My mother

01:02:29my mother was a fine woman.

01:02:30A fine Spanish woman.

01:02:34She would hear nothing

01:02:35of living in England.

01:02:37She was born in Spain

01:02:38and there she would die,

01:02:39she said.

01:02:40And she did die.

01:02:42We came here to England.

01:02:43My father spent all the money

01:02:48we had saved

01:02:48to come back to England

01:02:50to become a gentleman

01:02:51farm in his own country.

01:02:54But the land he bought

01:02:55is no good.

01:02:57The man is gone.

01:02:59We have a saying at home.

01:03:00We are not killed

01:03:05by the frost.

01:03:08We still live.

01:03:11Have you ever thought

01:03:12of going back?

01:03:12I've thought

01:03:13of nothing else.

01:03:15But my father

01:03:15is too proud

01:03:16to admit his beaten.

01:03:18Proud of this.

01:03:21And so we are left

01:03:23with the moor

01:03:24and the mist.

01:03:26You must be very lonely.

01:03:27Yes, I am very lonely.

01:03:30When you are poor

01:03:31no one wants to know you.

01:03:35I want to know you, Cecile.

01:03:41Why did you run away

01:03:42from me yesterday

01:03:43when we had hardly met?

01:03:46Why did you kiss me, Cecile?

01:03:50Why?

01:03:52I don't know.

01:03:53Tell me.

01:03:57I don't know.

01:03:58I don't know.

01:04:18Will you meet me tonight

01:04:19at the hall?

01:04:20We can walk back

01:04:22across the moor.

01:04:25If you want me to.

01:04:33Our paths seem to have

01:04:35crossed this morning,

01:04:36Sir Henry.

01:04:38I suppose you've come

01:04:39to talk about the farm.

01:04:42May you have cider?

01:04:43Good.

01:04:44Cecile fetched another tankard

01:04:45for me.

01:04:46Now, quickly, about a go.

01:04:47Do sit down, Sir Henry.

01:04:51I was wondering whether

01:04:52you and your guests

01:04:53at the hall would care

01:04:54to join us for a meal

01:04:54here tonight.

01:04:55Just simple fare, of course.

01:04:57Yes, sir, your daughter

01:04:58has already told me.

01:04:59I'd be very pleased to.

01:05:01And so I think

01:05:01all Mr. Holmes

01:05:02and Dr. Watson.

01:05:03Good.

01:05:04It'll be a change

01:05:04for us to have visitors.

01:05:09Your health, sir.

01:05:18But how can you be so certain

01:05:20that somebody took one

01:05:21of the bishop's spiders

01:05:23and deliberately placed it

01:05:24in Sir Henry's room?

01:05:25That it wasn't in the luggage

01:05:26he brought from South Africa?

01:05:28Elementary, my dear Watson,

01:05:29there are no tarantulas

01:05:30in South Africa.

01:05:32Oh.

01:05:33Well, whoever placed it there

01:05:34didn't know that.

01:05:35Precisely.

01:05:37But he did know

01:05:38when and where

01:05:39Sir Henry was arriving

01:05:40and where he'd be staying.

01:05:42He also knew a great deal

01:05:43about the Baskerville family.

01:05:45A bite from a tarantula

01:05:46is not necessarily deadly

01:05:47to a healthy man

01:05:48but to a man

01:05:49with a weak heart.

01:05:50Hmm.

01:05:51Well, that indicates

01:05:52that it's somebody

01:05:52from this part of the country.

01:05:54Why not?

01:05:55There's an excellent

01:05:55train service to and from London.

01:05:58Now, Sir Charles died

01:05:58on Dartmoor only a month ago.

01:06:00It would arouse less suspicion

01:06:01if Sir Henry died in London.

01:06:03Sir Charles,

01:06:04I'd almost forgotten about him.

01:06:05It's a good thing

01:06:06I remembered, wasn't it?

01:06:08Well, all right.

01:06:09But the person

01:06:10who benefited most

01:06:11from Sir Charles' will

01:06:12was Sir Henry.

01:06:13You're not going to suggest

01:06:13that he killed his uncle, huh?

01:06:15A million pounds

01:06:16is a great temptation.

01:06:18In a case such as this,

01:06:19everyone is suspect,

01:06:20even Sir Henry.

01:06:21Dr. Mortimer

01:06:22was the only one

01:06:22who knew

01:06:23where Sir Henry

01:06:24would be staying in London

01:06:25and when he was arriving.

01:06:26Oh, no.

01:06:27No.

01:06:28The London Times

01:06:29would have published it.

01:06:31Well, what about

01:06:31the legend

01:06:31of the Hound of Hell?

01:06:33Remember,

01:06:33we've both seen

01:06:34something of its horror.

01:06:36Watson,

01:06:37you inspire me!

01:06:38Let me see your map, quickly.

01:06:39Selden swore

01:06:41he heard his cries

01:06:42coming from the

01:06:43very depths of the Earth.

01:06:44The Hound of Hell!

01:06:46Let me see.

01:06:47Really,

01:06:48I must pull myself together.

01:06:49I should have noticed

01:06:50this long ago.

01:06:57Ah, Holmes.

01:06:59Barrymore told me

01:07:00you'd arrived.

01:07:01And about time, too,

01:07:02if I may say so,

01:07:03considering what happened

01:07:04to that convict fellow

01:07:05last night.

01:07:06A developer

01:07:07and I deeply regret,

01:07:08Dr. Mortimer.

01:07:08Well, I don't.

01:07:10A man like that

01:07:11deserves all he gets.

01:07:14Now, in case you're

01:07:15both wondering

01:07:15why I'm here,

01:07:16I'd just come over

01:07:17to start looking

01:07:17through the family estates.

01:07:20I think I'm wasting my time,

01:07:21if you ask me.

01:07:22You know, really, Holmes,

01:07:23I find it quite impossible

01:07:26to get on for Sir Henry.

01:07:27I understand you had

01:07:28a disagreement with him

01:07:29last night.

01:07:30Disagreement?

01:07:31The fellow was downright rude,

01:07:32if that's what you mean.

01:07:33Hardly a good enough

01:07:34excuse to leave someone alone

01:07:35when you know him

01:07:36to be in danger.

01:07:36You did tell me

01:07:37that you'd stay with Sir Henry

01:07:38until I got back.

01:07:39What if I did?

01:07:41I don't see why

01:07:41I should be insulted

01:07:42by the man I'm trying to protect.

01:07:44After all,

01:07:45I only mentioned

01:07:46the subject of the legend.

01:07:47Ah, now,

01:07:48you are very fond

01:07:48of doing that,

01:07:49Dr. Mortimer.

01:07:49Why?

01:07:50You were the first

01:07:51to discover the existence

01:07:52of the legend,

01:07:53weren't you?

01:07:54Mr. Holmes,

01:07:55when I engaged you,

01:07:57I looked to you

01:07:58to protect Sir Henry's interests.

01:08:00I'm beginning to see

01:08:01for the first time

01:08:01in my life

01:08:02I was wrong

01:08:03in my judgment.

01:08:04If you care

01:08:05to relinquish the case,

01:08:06I never relinquish a case.

01:08:07Mr. Hobart, please,

01:08:08please,

01:08:09don't let us fall out

01:08:10at this stage.

01:08:11I need your help,

01:08:12unfortunately.

01:08:15You, uh,

01:08:16you know a great deal

01:08:17about the geography

01:08:17and the history

01:08:18of this district,

01:08:19I believe.

01:08:20I am considered

01:08:21something of an authoritative.

01:08:22There is an old tin mine

01:08:23marked here on the map.

01:08:25Does it still exist?

01:08:27I believe so.

01:08:28What of it?

01:08:29It's been derelict for years.

01:08:31Yes, I rather fear

01:08:32this map will be out of date.

01:08:34Could you show me

01:08:34the way to the entrance?

01:08:36What on earth for?

01:08:39Could you?

01:08:41I'm afraid not.

01:08:43I haven't been near there

01:08:44for years.

01:08:46Perhaps Stapleton

01:08:47can help you.

01:08:48It lies under his ground.

01:08:50If he agreed to show me,

01:08:51would you be prepared

01:08:52to come with us?

01:08:53I suggest that you

01:08:54stay away from the mine,

01:08:55Mr. Holmes.

01:08:56It hasn't been in use

01:08:57for a long time

01:08:58and the shafting

01:08:59is in a dangerous condition.

01:09:01And how do you know that

01:09:01if you haven't been

01:09:02near there for years?

01:09:03Hmm?

01:09:05Well, it's obvious, isn't it?

01:09:07Any kind of tunnelling

01:09:08is dangerous

01:09:08if it isn't in a proper

01:09:09state of repair.

01:09:10All the same,

01:09:10I feel I must take a look at it.

01:09:12Will you come with me?

01:09:12As an archaeologist,

01:09:14your help will be invaluable.

01:09:16I suppose if you're going

01:09:17to make an issue of it,

01:09:18I shall have to come.

01:09:19Good.

01:09:20Good man.

01:09:21What do you want me to do?

01:09:22Identify anything I may find.

01:09:24Strange things are to be found,

01:09:25more than more.

01:09:26Like this, for instance.

01:09:34Where did you find that?

01:09:36Interesting, isn't it?

01:09:37Could you tell me

01:09:38how old it is?

01:09:40Well, I'm not sure.

01:09:42But, 1700, I imagine.

01:09:431740, to be exact.

01:09:45And the blood.

01:09:45How old is that?

01:09:47I couldn't tell.

01:09:48Then I will tell you

01:09:48it is less than 10 hours old.

01:09:51Could you tell me

01:09:52anything else

01:09:53about the weather?

01:09:54No?

01:09:55No?

01:09:56Oh, come, come.

01:09:57With your knowledge of the legend,

01:09:58I made certain you would have known.

01:10:01This is the dagger

01:10:02Sir Hugo Baskerville used

01:10:03to murder the farm girl

01:10:04in the abbey.

01:10:05And more recently,

01:10:06it has been used

01:10:06for some diabolical ceremony.

01:10:08All right, Morton.

01:10:19We're all down quite safely.

01:10:21Good.

01:10:22I'll be waiting for you here.

01:10:25I don't expect

01:10:25we shall be very loved.

01:10:27You'd both better

01:10:28follow close behind me

01:10:29for the moment.

01:10:29You'll have to watch your step.

01:10:58It's very slippery down here.

01:11:00The water seeps through

01:11:01from the mire.

01:11:05Don't touch any of the props,

01:11:06whatever you do.

01:11:07You've got the whole roof

01:11:08down on us.

01:11:10You should never have come down here.

01:11:11It's far too dangerous.

01:11:13What do you expect

01:11:14to find, Mr. Holmes?

01:11:16What is one likely

01:11:17to find under the ground?

01:11:19Bones, perhaps?

01:11:20This is dangerous.

01:11:46You can carry on, Mr. Holmes,

01:11:48while we chop the wheels.

01:11:50Certainly.

01:11:52Here you are.

01:12:16We won't need to go any further.

01:12:23I found what I came down for.

01:12:24You're welcome.

01:12:47The End

01:13:17No good, Watson?

01:13:28Leave the lanterns there, Mr. Stapleton.

01:13:37We must go back to the village and get some help.

01:13:40I'm afraid it won't do no good, sir.

01:13:42Must be a ton of rock blocking that shaft there.

01:13:44Well, we must try.

01:13:47You must resign yourself to the fact that there's not the slightest hope that he's still alive.

01:13:51Don't you agree, Stapleton?

01:13:52You know as much about it as I do.

01:13:55It's over two hours since the roof fell.

01:13:57You'll be down there yourself. We haven't heard a sound.

01:13:59Not likely to, with all that rock in front of us.

01:14:01That don't mean to say he's not alive, though.

01:14:03There's plenty of air in that old mine.

01:14:05Comes in from them ventilating shafts, sir.

01:14:07Well, couldn't we get down one of them and find him that way?

01:14:10I wouldn't like to say, sir.

01:14:11I doubt there's a man in the village that knows them entrances nowadays.

01:14:14Well, we must try to find one.

01:14:15Mr. Stapleton, will you lead us back to the path immediately, please?

01:14:18I did warn him not to go.

01:14:29You were there. You heard me, didn't you, Watson?

01:14:31There's still a chance.

01:14:32A very good chance.

01:14:33I've been sitting here for the last ten minutes waiting for you.

01:14:36Holmes!

01:14:39Thank heaven you're safe.

01:14:40But how did you get out?

01:14:42This is wonderful!

01:14:44That's gratifying.

01:14:45Now, when the general applause has died down,

01:14:47I wonder if we could get back to the hall.

01:14:49I've hurt my leg.

01:14:51I'm cold.

01:14:52And I'm hungry.

01:14:52Will you please stop behaving like a maiden aunt?

01:14:56Once and for all,

01:14:57if I hadn't known there were a number of entrances to the mine,

01:14:59I should never have gone down the confounded place.

01:15:01Yes, but for a wretched old beef bone...

01:15:03It is not a wretched old beef bone, my boy.

01:15:05That's just the point.

01:15:06It's a relatively new one.

01:15:07But I...

01:15:08No, boss.

01:15:09Would you mind, please, passing me my tobacco?

01:15:12Where is it?

01:15:13You'll find it in the top right-hand drawer.

01:15:15An unopened tin.

01:15:16You must have put it somewhere else.

01:15:21The right-hand top drawer.

01:15:23I'm looking in the right-hand top drawer.

01:15:26Isn't it there?

01:15:27I've just told you it isn't there.

01:15:30Hmm.

01:15:30Here it is.

01:15:31Just a minute.

01:15:32I know I put it there this morning.

01:15:34Watson, the bottom drawer where I put the dagger.

01:15:37Is it still locked?

01:15:39No.

01:15:41Holmes, the lock's been fought.

01:15:43The dagger's not there.

01:15:46Well, how's the leg feeling now?

01:15:52Not very good.

01:15:54I'm sorry to hear that.

01:15:56I wasn't able to tell you before,

01:15:57but Stapleton has asked the three of us over for a meal tonight.

01:16:00Well, has he?

01:16:01Yes, I thought it was a very nice gesture.

01:16:04Still, I don't suppose you'll feel like going with your leg the way it is.

01:16:08No, I don't.

01:16:09They'd be very disappointed.

01:16:11And Cecile is waiting for me downstairs.

01:16:13But, of course, I wouldn't dream of going without you.

01:16:18My dear Sir Henry,

01:16:19if you'd really wanted us to come with you,

01:16:21you'd have told us about the invitation much sooner than this.

01:16:24I beg your pardon?

01:16:25You'd better be off.

01:16:26You mustn't be late for your peasant friends.

01:16:29I don't like that, Holmes.

01:16:30I don't like the people you're mixing with.

01:16:32I should have thought in your new position

01:16:34you would have cultivated worthier friends.

01:16:36I hope you enjoy their rabbit pie.

01:16:42Mr. Holmes,

01:16:43I appreciate the fact that you are here to help me.

01:16:47Nevertheless, I would remind you

01:16:48that you are also a guest in my house.

01:16:53Good night.

01:16:54Good night.

01:16:54Well,

01:17:01I do think you might...

01:17:02What a new stop talking nonsense.

01:17:04You know my methods.

01:17:05Couldn't you see I was being purposely rude?

01:17:07I wanted him to go without us.

01:17:09The dagger's gone.

01:17:10Don't you realize what that means?

01:17:12Sir Henry is to die tonight.

01:17:13Are you sure that leg of yours is all right?

01:17:36It's got to be.

01:17:37We're to break the curse he laid on the master bills.

01:17:39Holmes?

01:17:40Yes.

01:17:41You learned something from that portrait

01:17:42that I was never able to see.

01:17:44The hands, Watson.

01:17:45Why do you think this painting was stolen?

01:17:47Because the artist revealed both hands.

01:17:50Barry Morris confirmed what I suspected.

01:17:52The fingers of Sir Hugo's right hand were webbed.

01:17:55Stapleton.

01:17:56Exactly.

01:17:57Stapleton.

01:17:58Illegitimate descendant of Sir Hugo.

01:17:59Next in line to the Baskerville fortune.

01:18:12Miller has been a dung.

01:18:14Again.

01:18:15To the Baskerville fortune.

01:18:17See you.

01:18:18We've been a dung.

01:18:18Excuse me.

01:18:19Run.

01:18:20Go.

01:18:29Listen.

01:18:30Go, go.

01:18:31Go, go.

01:18:32Go, go.

01:18:33Go, go.

01:18:34Go, go.

01:18:35Go, go.

01:18:36Go.

01:18:38Go.

01:18:38Go, go.

01:18:39Go.

01:18:40Go.

01:18:41No, this way.

01:18:43But this is the way to the farm.

01:18:44Come on.

01:19:11Come on.

01:21:26Come on.

01:21:27Come on.

01:21:28For those who died in poverty, why, you scum ruled the moor.

01:21:32We'll wait and pray for this moment, my father and I.

01:21:36Now our time has come and yours.

01:21:40The curse of the hound is on you.

01:21:58Let's go.

01:22:28Get it.

01:22:34Ah!

01:22:37Whoa!

01:22:39Ah!

01:22:40Ah!

01:22:42Whoa!

01:22:58No, Watson. She won't get far.

01:23:01Attend to Sir Henry.

01:23:08All right. All right, Sir Henry.

01:23:11The hound is dead, and you must see it.

01:23:14No, I... I...

01:23:17It is best that you should.

01:23:28There is nothing to fear now.

01:23:39There's a passage leading from the mine to this place.

01:23:42I discovered it after Stapleton tried to kill me down there.

01:23:50They use this mask to make it look more terrifying.

01:23:54It was starved for weeks, kept down the mine till the time's ripe.

01:23:57Then give him the scent.

01:24:09They had to have something of yours to give the hound.

01:24:14We'd better get Sir Henry back to Baskerville Hall, Holmes.

01:24:16Have you got your cape?

01:24:18Don't you get it for him.

01:24:27No, no!

01:24:28No!

01:24:29No!

01:24:31No!

01:24:33No!

01:24:36No!

01:24:41Sir, the curse has claimed its last victim.

01:24:43Yes.

01:24:44No more will be heard at the Hound of the Baskerville.

01:24:46to the Hound of the Baskerville.

01:24:53I feel I have already suffered enough from my infamous ancestor.

01:24:57And so...

01:24:58And so I am sending you the missing portrait,

01:25:00which we found at Stapleton's farm,

01:25:02to add to your famous collection of souvenirs.

01:25:04I hope you will accept it.

01:25:06Also the cheque which I enclose for...

01:25:08Mm-hmm. Very generous.

01:25:10Well, after tea, you must write to Sir Henry

01:25:12and tell him that I shall be pleased to accept both his gifts.

01:25:16Tell me, Holmes,

01:25:19when did you first suspect the truth about this case?

01:25:23The truth?

01:25:24Yes, that the, uh, the Hound was a real dog,

01:25:28not just a legendary myth.

01:25:30Ah.

01:25:31When Sir Henry complained of a missing boot,

01:25:33that, uh, put me on the scent, as it were.

01:25:35Huh. Well, as early as that.

01:25:37Huh. That's incredible.

01:25:39Elementary, my dear Watson. Elementary.

01:25:43Muffin.

01:25:46Magic, uh.

01:25:49Mm-hmm.

01:25:50Hm.

01:25:51Hm.

01:25:52The End

01:26:22The End
