Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1971 comedy mystery film directed by Anthony Harvey and starring George C. Scott and Joanne Woodward. The screenplay was adapted by James Goldman from his own 1961 stage play.Justin Playfair (Scott), a former judge in modern-day New York City, believes he is Sherlock Holmes since the death of his wife sent him into a severe paranoid psychosis. His psychiatrist, one Dr. Mildred Watson (Woodward), finds herself caught up in the scheme of Justin's brother to control his money by having him committed; meanwhile, a shadowy blackmailer in sunglasses wants to silence Justin. The film spoofs classic Holmesian tropes and ponders the popular themes of individual insanity vs. society's consensus reality.Yes, the band named themselves after this story. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The police apparently catches Justin and Mildred, the blackmailer and Blevins are probably still active, and who knows what will come off the tunnel. However, the city crazies had the time of their lives, Daisy left Blevins and their loveless marriage, Justin and Mildred are together, and he is still the owner of his money, at least for now. | |

Ambiguous Ending: Justin and Mildred stand in front of a tunnel where he claims Moriarty will appear "riding a horse, like a king." They stand over there until some lights on their backs suggest the police have caught up with them, but they don't care because there is a noise of horse hooves coming at them from the tunnel... | |
