Sherlock Holmes - 2009 Guy Ritchie

This week we're watching our first case study film. If you have missed any lessons, please make sure you watch the film over the holiday as in the next half term we'll be working on editing and narrative and using parts of Sherlock Holmes as examples.

We will also be gathering some information about the film such as who made it, who produced and distributed it as well as the director and box office figures.

You could also think about blogging your response to the film - what did you think of it? How did it fit with your idea of Sherlock Holmes? Do you think it is a successful update? Have they managed to successfully target a new market? Who do you think that market might be? What other films has Guy Ritchie directed? Is this similar?
