Inspector Clouseau Vs Sherlock Holmes
Sherlock Holmes is a better detective than Inspector Clouseau from the Pink Panther and The Inspector because of his thinking, plan, and how he accomplishes his goals.

Inspector Clouseau and Sherlock Holmes are two inspectors/detectives who solve mysteries, but don’t use the same tactics to get to the bottom of the mystery. Inspector Clouseau makes his plans more extreme and uses his imagination to his advantage. On the other hand, Sherlock Holmes makes his decisions after lots of thinking and has to have common sense behind his decisions. A great example of Sherlock Holmes is that he was trying to find the face of “Mr. Stapleton” so he put a piece of paper on the bottom of hugo's face to find if they are the same person.

    Mise-En-Scene Analysis: Sherlock Jr.

    As we have discussed in class, mise-en-scene is all about what is staged and arranged in front of the camera: actors, props, setting, color, movement, costume, make-up, and more. Identify *three* significant, specific elements of mise-en-scene from the scene in SHERLOCK JR. (see link above). Then answer the following questions: 1) For each element you mention, write a little about its meaning, emotional impact, and significance to the story. 2) Discuss whether or not the film, *as a whole* (not just this one scene) appears to be controlled or uncontrolled in its use of mise en scene. If the total film is a mix of controlled and uncontrolled elements, state specifically which elements are controlled, and which are uncontrolled. (approx 500 words / 2 paragraphs)…

    Allan Pinkerton is without a doubt one of the most famous figures in the Detective history.

    A Scandal In Bohemia

    The famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is known for his keen observation skills and logical thinking that has outsmarted criminal masterminds. His ability to conclude a theory from reason and logic is impressive; however, “It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts" (Scandal, 3). For his cases, Holmes gathers up data and information in any way he can, one being the art of disguise. The use of disguises play a significant part in crime solving because they allow Holmes to conceal his identity so he can gather information and ultimately deceive society.…

    Imagine you committed a crime but were let free even though it is breaking the law for a police officer to do that. Sherlock Homes a detective that is beyond their technology that they should have used science to find evidence to crimes. In one of his stories he solved the crime about a missing carbuncle (jewel) and after he found out who did it he let them go like it was nothing. In my opinion Sherlock made the wrong decision. He should not have let them go for stealing it is illegal what he did.…

    Analysis Of Sherlock Jr.

    Sherlock Jr. by Buster Keaton to my surprise proved to be quite comical. This was the first silent film that I have watched and enjoyed if you don't count "Tom and Jerry". I was intrigued and fascinated by how the story was portrayed without the use of words. Since the film was made in 1924 it appealed to the audience of that time and showed how a man was trying to get the attention and adoration of a woman. I am curious to how long it took to create a film almost a century ago due to the fact that it can take weeks and even months with todays technology depending on the films size. The background really helped personify the story and keep my interest. The jumping from the real world to his perceptive reality was realism and anti-realism.…

    Why Is Sherlock Holmes Unethical

    Sherlock Holmes is a very strange man. He is a detective who can solve a mystery without even seeing what seems to be like too much evidence. His ethics are very interesting. He believes that murder cases turn out to have very complex ways of happening. He does not believe in the solar system, which the narrator thought was very weird. His decision to join the case to help was a just decision, because without him the case wouldn’t have been solved correctly. Holmes seems to always stick with his beliefs, not matter what the situation was, even after the case seemed like it was solved.…

    Sherlock Holmes: Modern Day Hero

    for the good of humanity or just the good of one's loved ones every hero has a cause. Sherlock Holmes seems like an obvious hero but he doesn't really care about saving or protecting people. It seems the only thing Sherlock cares about is working and solving the cases because it is fun for him to have a challenge. But Sherlock does seem to have an internal struggle whether to fight for good or to prove his intelligence according to the author of (sherlock character confessions by Raven Simmons). “Sherlock seems to be divided by the urge to defeat Moriarty because he is a criminal and it would simply be the right thing to do r to defeat Moriarty simply to win a challenge made against his intelligence; basically, as a battle of wits”. So it seems that there may be some kind of good conscience inside of this man. Even though he is a kind of strange man that keeps to himself he does try to help others though it may seem he has selfish reasons for helping. I believe that he is a true hero when you hear someone talk about the great Sherlock Holmes you think of a mysterious british man with quick wits that fights crime for good. He is an iconic hero in british literature that everyone…

    Devil in a Blue Dress

    Easy Rawlins from Devil in a Blue Dress was a black private detective. He was a man who worked for what he had. Unlike most of the African American population, he had his own house, but he was lacking money. Rawlins did not have a steady job so when a man came along proposing work, he immediately took it. This is much different from the amateur detective, Sherlock Holmes, in “Silver Blaze.” In “Silver Blaze” the story opens up with Holmes talking to his partner, John Watson, about leaving to go to King’s Pyland so he could involve himself in an investigation involving a murder and a missing horse. Watson then thought to himself, “I was not surprised. Indeed, my only wonder was that he had not already been mixed up in this extraordinary case, which was the topic of conversation through the length and breadth of England.” The difference between Rawlins and Holmes was Easy Rawlins needed the job; Sherlock Holmes just loved to be presented with a challenge.…

    Sherlock Holmes Reasoning In Bohemia

    In Arthur Conan Doyle’s A Scandal in Bohemia, Sherlock Holmes uses his famous reasoning abilities to read a woman in order to solve a problem. After all, according to Holmes a woman’s emotions always give her away, making it easy for him to find Irene Adler’s hidden photograph. The apparently rational assumptions about women lead Sherlock Holmes to overconfidently use those generalizations in his reasoning to find the photograph. Theatricality is the main tool used by men in this story, and in their seemingly flawless use of a costume, they underestimate the ability of others to see through their reasoning. Though theatrical efforts are used as a result of a man’s reasoning, it is the man’s overconfidence in his…

    Holmes Vs St. Clair

    Comparing Sherlock Holmes to Neville St. Clair there are obvious differences in each result to their performances; how they react to their actions and how others react to their preformed identities. With these two results we can determined which action is seen as a threat and which is seen with reward. Sherlock Holmes and Neville St. Clair both became shabbier than their normal identities, but the intent of their reason’s were different. Holmes was doing his job, protecting the Empire and solving crimes, a complete selfless act. His action of misleading people into thinking he was a drug addict was not considered an risk factor because the intent was Holmes to bring justice. St. Clair on the other hand, deceived people into pitting his character,…

    In “A Scandal in Bohemia,” the detective Sherlock Holmes uses his cleverness mind to solve the case the King needed him to solve. Holmes demonstrates his acumen early in the story by deciding how he is going to find the picture. Holmes’s plan was one he uses before, to have a disguise. This time being a clergyman (28).

His plan was to go to the house himself and observe (9).…
