The Seven-Per-Cent Solution
A screening of The Seven-Per-Cent Solution timed to the new Sherlock Holmes novel by its Academy-Award nominated screenwriter.
When Dr. Watson (Robert Duvall) finds a disheveled Sherlock Holmes (Nicol Williamson) in a cocaine-fueled delirium muttering about vast criminal conspiracies and one Professor Moriarty (Laurence Olivier), the detective’s loyal companion hatches his own ingenious conspiracy to get Holmes under the care of Sigmund Freud (Alan Arkin). Once in Vienna there’s no time for the couch, however, as the two great minds are plunged into a new mystery and a trans-continental race against time. (1976, dir. Herbert Ross, 35mm, color, 113 min.)
