  1. A quotation from Steven Moffat

       MYCROFT: You’ve met him. How many friends do you imagine he has? I’m the closest thing to a friend that Sherlock Holmes is capable of having.
       WATSON: And what’s that?
       MYCROFT: An enemy.
       WATSON: An enemy?
       MYCROFT: In his mind, certainly. If you were to ask him, he’d probably say an arch-enemy. He does love to be dramatic.
       WATSON: Well, thank God you’re above all that.

    Steven Moffat (b. 1961) Scottish television writer, producer
    Sherlock, 01×01 “A Study in Pink” (2010-07-25)

  2. Ernst Lubitsch's Eyes of the Mummy (1918) sounds like a horror film but it's a romantic melodrama although there's an ancient Egyptian tomb and a curse, and strange and inexplicable events. Pola Negri stars. Early Lubitsch is so wild and crazy.
