Hans Albers and Heinz Rühmann play two confidence tricksters. They manage to stop a night train for nefarious purposes and impersonate Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Romantic involvement with two young British female travelers ensues, but the plot deepens into the disappearance of rare Mauritius postage stamps which they undertake to recover, in their role as Holmes and Watson. An ingenious and exciting twist on Conan Doyle characters full of surprises...
This film has it all. Mystery, adventure, comedy, romance, music, suspense, danger, action! It’s an amazing roller-coster ride where for much of the story, you can’t even guess where the plot is going, and by the time it’s over, you’re not only exhausted, you’re overwhelmingly satisfied. Hans Albers & Heinz Rühmann are at their very best in this hugely entertaining film.
