"Sir Arthur Conan Doyle led the way in modern detective stories by creating the ultimate detective. This series led the many followers by demonstrating in video format what Doyle envisioned in his books. Although the first modern mystery was written by Edgar Allen Poe, The Murders in the Rue Morgue, like most of his writing it was not widely accepted until after his death, and no videos based on this story were not filmed until well after Sherlock Holmes films were completed. I love this style."
