Sherlock is a character created by English writer Arthur Conan Doyle. Consulting detective lives in Victorian London on Baker Street and helps Scotland Yard police in solving crimes. Works<\/a> about the adventures of Holmes and Dr. Watson have become classics of the detective genre, and screenings are still successful.<\/p>\n

The first film adaptation is considered to be a thirty-second silent movie \u00abSherlock Holmes Baffled\u00bb<\/a>. The short sketch was premiered in May 1900. The names of the actors are unknown. The only copy was lost until it was restored by cards in 1968. \u00abBaffled\u00bb is the first detective in the history of cinematography.<\/p>\n

The most popular screen adaptation among the Russian public is the Soviet series with Vasily Livanov and Vitaly Solomin in the lead roles. The series \u00abThe Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson\u00bb was released in 1979-1986 and consisted of eleven episodes. The plot was based on stories \u00abA Study in Pink\u00bb, \u00abThe Final Problem\u00bb, \u00abThe Hound of the Baskervilles\u00bb.<\/p>\n

The TV series was appreciated abroad: the film critic Alan Barnes in his book \u00abSherlock Holmes on the screen\u00bb<\/a> (1999) wrote that the detective performed by Livanov is the best of all time.<\/p>\n

In 1970 the American film \u00abThe Private Life of Sherlock Holmes\u00bb<\/a> was released. Oscar-winning director Billy Wilder worked on the picture, and the main character was played by British Robert Stevenson. Holmes and Watson visit the ball of Russian ballerina and bathe in women’s attention. Unlike his3 friend, Sherlock is not glad about this arrangement. At the same time, a standard detective line develops: the detective investigates the case of the disappearance of the man. The search brings the heroes to Loch Ness Lake.<\/p>\n

\u00abSherlock Holmes\u00bb by Guy Ritchie<\/a> was released in 2009, two years later – a continuation under the title \u00abSherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows\u00bb . The characters of the detective and the doctor were performed by Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. The friends save London from Moriarty’s plans and investigate terrorist attacks. Critics praised the screening, and the first film was nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe. The third part of the franchise will be released in 2021.<\/p>\n

\u00abSherlock\u00bb (2010) by the BBC is probably the most unusual of all. The action takes place not in Victorian England, but in the modern one. John Watson (Martin Freeman) blogs about his friend instead of notes. The image of Holmes, played by Benedict Cumberbatch, turned out to be extraordinary. Sherlock calls himself a \u00abhighly active sociopath\u00bb, fights against drug addiction and denies the existence of feelings and emotions. The main antipode of the detective is James Moriarty.<\/p>\n

At the moment, 4 seasons and a special episode\u00a0 \u00abThe Abominable Bride\u00bb<\/a> have been released. It is not known whether there will be a continuation.<\/p>\n

In 2012, CBS offered to the producers of the British \u00abSherlock\u00bb with a proposal to make a remake. The BBC refused to sell the copyrights, so the company created a TV series from scratch. \u00abElementary\u00bb<\/a> was released in September of the same year.<\/p>\n

Holmes comes to New York for treatment in a rehabilitation center and remains to work as a police consultant. Joanne Watson – in this adaptation the doctor became a girl – supervises the detective.<\/p>\n

\u00abEnola Holmes\u00bb<\/a> is an online platform project created by Netflix, released in autumn. Producer and main actress – 16-year-old Millie Bobby Brown. The focus is not on Sherlock, but his teenage sister Enola. The image of the detective turned out to be interesting, though not canonical. In the story Mycroft, Sherlock and Enola are looking for their missing mother.<\/p>\n
