The Private Life of Sherlock Homes script - post author admin

Thanks Steven for the heads up on this – It’s an early draft which you can compare to a later, undated draft.

The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes – August 25, 1969 draft script by Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond – hosted by: Archives.org – in pdf format

Director Billy Wilder adds a new and intriguing twist to the personality of intrepid detective Sherlock Holmes. One thing hasn’t changed however: Holmes’ crime-solving talents. Holmes and Dr. Watson take on the case of a beautiful woman whose husband has vanished. The investigation proves strange indeed, involving six missing midgets, villainous monks, a Scottish castle, the Loch Ness monster, and covert naval experiments. Can the sleuths make sense of all this and solve the mystery?
