SEXTON BLAKE AND THE HOODED - 1938 - GEORGE CURZON - RARE DVD

Egads! Can there be two famous detectives that live in London on Baker Street? And they both smoke a pipe! Blake Sexton is cut more in the style of James Bond than Sherlock Holmes, though. He is friends with a beautiful female spy for the Fraench Secret Service, and our adventure moves across both countries as they chase an organized gang of master criminals terrorizing Europe. The coiled snake, leader of this band of hooded thugs is a wealthy international business man who no one suspects, and he has detective Sexton Blake, played by George Curzon, and French spy Madamoiselle Julie, played by Greta Gynt, in his sights from the very beginning. There are thrills and chills and danger for our beautiful French spy and our smart British detective. Pop a big bowl of white kernel popcorn and drizzle plenty of warm melted butter on it, and get ready for a suspense filled hour of mystery, death and terror.
