SUMMARY:ET's Movie Matinee: The Hound of the Baskervilles
DESCRIPTION:Registration is required to attend this event! To sign up\, please visit the link under Event Website! \nIf you love free movie screenings with others\, then come to the Etowah Library today for ET’s Movie Matinee! Today’s presentation features The Hound of the Baskervilles! We set our stage on Baker Street\, London\, England\, in the year 1902. One grisly night\, Doctor Richard Mortimer recounts the legend of the hell hound that killed Sir Hugo Baskerville to one Sherlock Holmes. The doctor pleads with Mr. Holmes to investigate the death of his friend\, Sir Charles Baskerville\, citing the curse of the hell hound as the cause. Though Holmes is skeptical at first\, he and Mr. Watson agree to meet up with Baskerville’s nephew and heir\, Sir Henry. Little do they know what trouble brews on the other side of this mystery… \nMovie trivia: did you know this 1959 movie had it’s fair share of controversy? It’s true! The Conan Doyle estate and the movie’s producer\, Hammer Film Productions\, argued about the changes the movie made to the original book and tried to stop the movie from releasing. Hammer Film Productions published it anyway. Actor Peter Cushing\, who played Holmes in the movie\, stated that he\, “…felt the character of Holmes remained intact.” \n
