1.Basil The Great Mouse Detective (Disney) [1986] starring: Vincent Price, Barrie Ingham, Val Bettin, Susanne Pollatschek, Candy Candido directed by: Ron Clements, John Musker, Burny Mattinson, David Michener May 23, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.01
This was one of my favourite films as a child and still is today. In my opinion it is THE greatest Disney film and does not have the fame it deserves. From beginning to end this is a delight to watch, mainly thanks to the wonderful Sherlock Holmes based characters and cunning twists in the plot. There is plenty to amuse both the child and the Holmes fan, from the narration of Dr Dawson, the loveableness of Toby, the evil schemes of the Napolean of Crime - Professor Ratigan , and of course the cunning disguises and eccentric genius of Basil himself, not to mention brief cameos from the human forms of Holmes and Watson. For the ardent Holmes fan there are a number of sneaky and less obvious references to the great human detective. The ... Read More:

3.Day Of The Jackal [1973] starring: Edward Fox, Terence Alexander, Michel Auclair, Alan Badel, Tony Britton directed by: Fred Zinnemann July 01, 1999

At my English prep school in the mid-80s the Day of the Jackal was approved viewing for the boys, despite its adult themes, because it offered up a role model of how an English gentleman should behave. Edward Fox is perfect in the lead role: impossibly dapper and handsome, emotionally cold, well organised, hates the French and travels in style. The Day of the Jackal is a beautifully shot film, full of glossy mid-70s Europe, summer, good clothes, cigarettes and hotels. It tells of a cat and mouse game between an assassin and the French security services out to get that assassin, but with little information to go on. I have found this to be one of few films that reward repeated viewing. Enjoy.

4.Sparkling Cyanide [1989] starring: Anthony Andrews, Deborah Raffin, Pamela Bellwood, Nancy Marchand, Josef Sommer directed by: Robert Michael Lewis June 03, 1996

This ' adaptation ' bears little resemblance to the novel . The book keeps you on the edge of your seat with captivating twists & turns . The TV movie is rather like mediocre soap opera . If Agatha Christie had written an episode of Dallas then it would have been like this . I have long maintained that given the fact that there was a Poirot short story with a similar plot line called The Yellow Iris then the solution was obvious . They could have written out Colonel Race & brought in Captain Hasting's ( they excluded Mr Satterwaite from Murder In Three Acts on that basis ) and brought in Poirot . In short they could have used Poirot & Hastings , stuck to the basic story line of Sparkling Cyanide and called the TV movie The Yellow Iris . ... Read More:
