Jeremy Brett in The Very Edge (1963) aka what the fuck is this bullshit I’m watching and oh god it’s horrible about/to women even for 1963 and this is assaulted women we’re talking about and what the fuck is going on and every line is contrived and painful but OH GOD YOUNG JEREMY BRETT BEING EVIL. He really acted his little socks off in this one.
“That was how a great scandal threatened the Kingdom of Bohemia, and how the best plans of Mr. Sherlock Holmes were beaten by a woman’s wit. He used to sneer much at the cleverness of woman, but I have not heard him do it of late. And when he speaks of Irene Adler, or when he refers to that woman, it is always under the honorable title of ‘The Woman’. In his eyes, she eclipses the whole of her sex. It was not that he ever betrayed any sign of love for Irene Adler, all emotions such as that one are abhorrent to his cold, precise mind. He only looks on women pathologically, as the source of motives, clues. And yet, he keeps her photograph apart, locked up. There is but one woman to him, the beautiful Irene Adler, of dubious and questionable memory.”

A very clever little venture which I must confess I had predicted and the circumstances being what they were, considered foolish to interfere—” “So that’s where the bruises on my—” “I’m afraid so, yes…”
