Sherlock Holmes matches wits with Irene Adler in the film, A Scandal in Bohemia (1984).  The one-hour episode from the TV series, “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes,” will play on Tuesday, August 26 at 6:30 p.m. in the Keys Community Room (lower level) of the Milton Library, 476 Canton Avenue in Milton.  This free event is sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Library and is part of the Milton Reads special events.

A Scandal in Bohemia stars Jeremy Brett, David Burke and Gayle Hunnicutt and was directed by Paul Annett. Sherlock Holmes finds himself evenly matched when he is employed by the King of Bohemia to retrieve an indiscreet photograph from the American actress and singer, Irene Adler.

This film series is part of Milton Reads, which chose The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle for the entire town to read as a literary project, along with enjoying related events throughout the summer and fall.
