2004 Sherlock Holmes movie

[Feeture Feature]

Just finished watching "Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Silk Stocking." It's a BBC production and despite the title does not have any scenes of women in silk stockings. But it does have a lot of foot scenes and the plot deals with a serial killer with a foot fetish. Young women are found strangled. Some of the actresses shown may be juveniles. The last one he kidnaps, though, Perdita Weeks, was 19 at the time film was released. He kidnaps her after drugging her in bed and carries her barefoot through the streets at night. There is a nice shot of her soles as he carries her through a building. After he lays her down on a bed, he removes his cloak and her sandals are hung around his neck. He buries his face in them. Then he washes her feet. I had seen mentions of foot scenes in this movie but not that the plot included elements of a foot fetish. One of his victims was released because she had a club foot.
