The Hound of the Baskervilles (DVD)
The first of 14 films pairing Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce as the definitive Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, this version of THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES remains the most celebrated adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic mystery. When his uncle is found murdered on the grounds of the family estate, Sir Henry Baskerville (Richard Greene) arrives from abroad to claim his ancestral home on the fog-shrouded Devonshire moors. But family friend Dr. Mortimer (Lionel Atwill) brings Sir Henry to master sleuth Sherlock Holmes with fears for the young heir's life and tales of a family curse placed upon the Baskerville clan. Together they travel to the desolate Baskerville Hall and encounter a slew of mysterious goings-on, including a suspicious butler (John Carradine) and the ghost of a hound haunting the moors. Dripping with atmosphere, this suspenseful and absorbing film is one of the true gems of the Holmes adaptations.DVD Features:Region [unknown]Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Audio Commentary Theatrical TrailersInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive MenusText/Photo Galleries: Stills/Photos Production Notes

This shojo manga (Japanese female-oriented graphic novel), the first in a series, is a collection of six short stories about androids, referred to here as dolls, which are capable of both domestic work and sexual services. Whether the doll is intended to be the perfect lover, or substitute for the owner's ill wife, or serve as the focus for the owner's mental illness, the central question in each story is this: can an artificial approximation of a human fulfill a person's emotional needs? In each case, the answer depends not on the android, but on the needy human. As is appropriate for a character-driven book, the black-and-white art focuses tightly on characters, not settings. Most of the dolls are female; they are extremely pretty and dress in elaborately frilly clothing, and are difficult to distinguish from the humans, particularly the women, who are also very pretty and wear lots of frills--but then, that similarity is the point of the book. This book is a special edition of the manga; rather than the usual paperback, it's a hardcover with a jacket and a full-color frontispiece.
