How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A locked-room mystery wrapped in the shadows of wartime Britain, where Holmes and Watson unravel a series of murders at a convalescent home. Brisk and assured, it's a craftsman's take on detective work, more puzzle than spectacle.
