Chapter 584 Basic deduction method

After losing the threat of the "electric baton", the Russian man showed his power again and almost killed Holmes and Watson.

Fortunately, the Scotland Yard police arrived and finally scared the other party away.

But before that, they completely destroyed the shipyard and even caused a ship under construction to break away from the dock and sink into the Thames River.

"This fight is so exciting!"

Emily sighed.

As a girl who is very good at convincing people with "reason", she was very satisfied with this fighting scene.

Especially the final scene where the Russian men destroyed the shipyard, causing the ship to slide down the rails and fall into the Thames River, which made Emily's adrenaline soar.

However, this is how I feel as a viewer.

In the story, Holmes and Watson were frightened half to death.

The two were imprisoned by the police because of the destruction of the shipyard.

Fortunately, as prestigious people, the two were quickly released again——

Watson was bailed out by his fiancée, Mary Morstan.

Holmes, on the other hand, was taken by a group of people to meet a mysterious figure.

——But, wearing a hood.

Of course, blindfolding doesn't mean much to a great detective like Sherlock Holmes.

He easily determined the location where he met the mysterious man based on various clues, and determined the identity of the other person.

——That is Earl Blackwood's biological father.

It turns out that Black Wood's parents were a group of British aristocrats who believed in occultism. They were not a couple, but they gave birth to Black Wood in a so-called "magic ceremony."

"What kind of magic ceremony is this? It's just a chaotic party under the guise of occultism!"

Like Sherlock Holmes in the film, Gianna scoffed at the suggestion.

However, this is not because she is superstitious about science, but because she just attended a similar dark style party some time ago.

After all, when it comes to crazy fun and death, if American college students consider themselves second, then it will be difficult to choose the first place...

In contrast, Emily, who has watched more movies and has a better understanding of the occult, directly thought of the famous black magic ritual of Black Mass.

However, Emily is conflicted in her heart——

On the one hand, she feels that it is appropriate for movies about Sherlock Holmes to be based on logical reasoning after all.

On the other hand, I can't help but imagine how Holmes would react if he really encountered black magic that cannot be explained by science.

This left Emily in a bit of a dilemma.

In fact, not only Emily, but also many viewers in the screening hall had a similar mentality——

While they instinctively wanted to see Sherlock Holmes fight the black magician Blackwood, they were also worried that such a story would not be good.

But behind this, what is hidden is that they have gradually deepened into the plot of the movie, and have begun to worry about what they will do if Count Blackwood really has magic power, just like the characters in the movie.

Only a few senior film critics, such as Richard Manson, are aware that they are being subtly affected by the film.

This made them very surprised by director Charlotte's powerful and delicate narrative ability.

Richard Manson even thought deeper -

He felt that Blackwood's plot, to some extent, actually reflected the coexistence of scientific progress and mysterious ignorance in the 19th century...

This is just his personal thought.

As for another senior film critic, Kenneth Turan, he was not interested in thinking about this.

——As a detective fan, he has been completely immersed in the world of movies and has forgotten his job as a film critic.

Especially when Holmes just met Earl Blackwood's father, the reasoning process shown with a special lens made Kenneth feel that it was a stroke of genius.

——Here, when Charlotte was editing in post-production,

The treatment method used in the later "Sherlock" was adopted.

He used the camera to focus on several clues on Earl Blackwood's father, and then used post-effects, coupled with quickly emerging text and clue descriptions, to form a very interesting reasoning and deduction process.

Coupled with Robert Downey Jr.'s humorous and fast-speaking dubbing, many viewers who like Sherlock Holmes suddenly felt that they seemed to have witnessed Holmes' rapid reasoning process in an instant.

"This is Sherlock Holmes's deduction method!"

Kenneth Turan couldn't help but sigh.

As the actor of Sherlock Holmes, Robert Downey Jr., who was also in the screening room, couldn't help but frowned when he saw this very innovative editing footage.

——Downey admires the director's camera control ability and imagination very much.

He also admitted that the interpretation of this reasoning scene can definitely be said to be innovative, giving all viewers who step into the perspective of Sherlock Holmes a refreshing feeling similar to that of Sherlock Holmes.

But for Downey, this footage made him couldn't help but recall the tragic experience during dubbing in the later stage——

"You're not speaking fast enough, please speak faster!!"

“While speaking fast, you must also ensure that your words are clear and full of emotion, especially with a sense of humor!!!”

——These two sentences can be said to be the two instructions that Downey heard the most when he was dubbing for "Sherlock Holmes".

Although he had heard Charlotte say during filming that she had to speak faster during dubbing later, he did not expect it to be so fast.

——Not to mention anything else, I got tongue-tied or simply bit my lip and tongue because of talking too fast, no less than twenty times.

This is naturally very painful.

Downey has acted in many movies so far, but he has never experienced such a difficult post-dubbing process.

But now that he heard his painstakingly completed quick deduction dubbing again in the cinema, he naturally recalled the fear of being tongue-tied again...

However, on the other hand, at the same time as fear, there was also a rare sense of accomplishment in his heart.

After all, the sense of accomplishment is inevitable when you see the results of your hard work.

In particular, after Charlotte's unique editing and post-production, Downey felt that his fast speaking speed indeed gave rise to the feeling of Sherlock Holmes' rapid reasoning.

"This is the deduction method!"

Downey, who has also read the original "Sherlock Holmes", also thought of this word.

At the same time, in the small storage room behind the screening room, Charlotte also felt something and opened her eyes that had been closed for a long time——

"This is indeed the deduction method! Basic deduction method!!"

As he spoke, he looked to his empty right side,

"—right, Mr. Holmes?"

"Mr. Holmes!?"

Charlize, who was also in the storage room, was stunned.

She looked in the direction Charlotte was looking, and saw a man wearing a deer hunting suit and holding a pipe in his mouth gradually emerging from the empty place.

The man's appearance is a bit vague, a bit like Robert Downey Jr., but not quite like--

"Holmes!!?"
