Movie of the Day: Young Sherlock Holmes




Young Sherlock Holmes (1985)

An often forgotten film, it featured The Goonies team of Steven Spielberg as producer and Chris Columbus as writer. It is notable for featuring the first fully computer-generated character, a knight composed of elements from a stained glass window. The effect was created by Lucasfilm's John Lasseter (now chief creative officer at Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Animation Studios) before Pixar was sold the next year. Lasseter would go on to create Toy Story 10 years later.
