The Seven-Per-Cent Solution (1976) – DVD | Nicol Williamson | Robert Duvall | Sherlock Holmes Mystery
What if Sherlock Holmes’ greatest enemy wasn’t Moriarty — but his own addiction? Based on Nicholas Meyer’s bestselling novel, The Seven-Per-Cent Solution is a brilliantly inventive 1976 mystery thriller in which Dr. Watson engineers a meeting between the cocaine-addicted Sherlock Holmes and none other than Sigmund Freud — who must cure the great detective before a dangerous new case can be solved. The result is one of the most original and entertaining Sherlock Holmes adventures ever committed to film.
Starring Nicol Williamson as a fascinatingly flawed Holmes, Robert Duvall as Watson, and Alan Arkin as Freud, with a stellar supporting cast including Vanessa Redgrave, Laurence Olivier, and Joel Grey. A must-own collectible DVD for fans of Sherlock Holmes and classic 70s mystery cinema.
