    I love how much this little exchange shows about those two.
    There's Holmes, the man who likes to keep himself a mystery, and Watson, his biographer, friend and only person who really knows him.

    🎩I would like to add a bit of film trivia. Jeremy Brett has a breath taking screen appearance playing the part of Sherlock Holmes. Another actor from the silent era also was breath taking to watch. When he died millions of women were heartbroken. This actor had a French mother and he danced a captivating tango. Who was this actor? I know who the actor was. Imagine if Brett was silent film actor with his sex appeal radiating from the screen. We would not be able to hear his sexy voice. Jeremy was an excellent actor.

    Dommage que la coupure à 00:10 nous fasse passer si vite d'Holmes au "french Iougueno" !
    On admire le quasi imperceptible, soufflement des narines et le plissement des lèvres, discrètement méprisants (c'est net, c'est bref, c'est subtile, c'est Jeremy 😍 !).
    Holmes (si ce n'est notre Darling Jeremy - après tout fils de soldat 🇬🇧) nous ferait-il là du 🇫🇷-bashing 🤭 ?!

    • @Briselance
      @Briselance 4 місяці тому

      Il y a plus brutal, comme French bashing. J'imagine que c'était un peu dans l'air de l'époque (l'époque où se situe l'action du film) d'avoir une mauvaise opinion d'autres pays, mais toujours avec politesse.

    • @charlottevairet3453
      @charlottevairet3453 4 місяці тому

      ​​​​@@BriselanceHum, le "🤭" qui accompagnait le vocable de "french bashing" était semble-t-il insuffisant pour bien marquer l'amusement de fond qui teintait ma question - "protestation".
      De fait, m'exprimant - pour une fois - en français, je ne pensais pas être lue par un compatriote et encore moins être "reprise" sur ce point, 😉.
      Votre réaction m'a incitée à aller voir plus loin (et je vous en remercie) : de fait, "Le Traité naval" date de 1893 et la série de traités bilatéraux 🇨🇵🇬🇧qu'on appelle "Entente Cordiale" de 1904. Donc...
      Mon commentaire portait surtout sur l'Art de l'acteur (hors pair à mes yeux) qu'est Jeremy Brett dans cet épisode qui est l'un de mes préférés.
      Dans ces conditions, et d'un point de vue franco-francais, un peu d'autodérision me paraît tout à fait appréciable, 😊.
      Je trouve ce passage particulièrement intéressant (je ne sais pas si l'équivalent existe sous la plume de SACD) en ce qu'il m'a amenée pour la première fois à me demander si / dans quelle mesure Holmes et Watson ont les préjugés d'Anglais de leur temps et de leur milieu et, si oui, lesquels précisément.
      En effet, il y a d'autres moments dans cette série où je serais portée à me poser ce type de question.
      Mais cela amènerait des développements sur un sujet que je n'ai jamais vu abordé dans les commentaires des meilleurs amateurs de la série...
      Je trouve cela un peu dommage : après tout, cela n'ôterait rien aux héros ; au contraire cela leur donnerait peut-être une consistance supplémentaire, plus de proximité avec les lecteurs. Mais ça n'est peut-être pas ce que le lecteur recherche dans ce genre de récit...
      Bien à vous !

    • @byte2702
      @byte2702 Рік тому +2

      While Helen‘s answer will be the main reason, I can understand Holmes here in any case. Holmes is in the middle of an investigation, and a private talk about his grandmother would interrupt the investigation as Helen already pointed out. I‘m also a person who absolutely dislikes it if people talk about my private life with other people. I mean, I can do that by myself if I think that the other people should know that fact. It has something to do with respect, too. The older you become, the more you will know why not everyone should know everything about your private life. This small accident only happened because Sir Conan Doyle wanted to allow the audience to learn a bit more about Sherlock Holmes.

    • @AmadeaTesla
      @AmadeaTesla Рік тому +1

      Holmes didn’t really suspect the man and Watson knew that. Watson is calling back to the Microft episode where Holmes actually starts talking about his family. Watsons playfully calling bs and Holmes realizes that’s what he’s doing, which is a side effect of someone starting to know you. If Holmes really suspected the man, he would not have been so forward with his suspicions. That’s never been his MO.

    • @byte2702

      @@AmadeaTesla Watson was introduced to Mycroft in a later adventure. This is a scene from The Naval Treaty (3rd episode of the 1st series), Watson learnt about Mycroft and about Holmes’ past in The Greek Interpreter (9th episode of the 1st series). It wouldn’t fit the timeline. Beside of that, it is quite known that Holmes put his potential informants under high pressure so that he could solve his cases, it it can be seen in several episodes e.g. The Abbey Grange Affair, The Bomscombe Valley Mystery or The Illustrious Client just came in my mind. The person doesn’t need to be the suspect for that, it is already enough if that person has some information that Holmes needs. And Watson was quite bad in guessing Holmes’ next steps. In fact, Holmes had to tell him first.
