Watched online, very poor playback. Other copies were shorter by 15m.
4 songs in Soundtracks; seemed like more songs than that.
Rated 5 on 2015-05-06. Don't have enough evidence to concur or change, but will upgrade to 6- just to give this another chance with a proper viewing. There might be a better copy online by then.
Not sure why writer/director Wilder (Gene, not Billy, who also did a Holmes comedy in '70) set our expectations for a "smarter" brother, not named Mycroft, BTW. If this is a smarter brother, then Sherlock would be a drooling idiot.
Does MK always play oversexed?
Fox & more, dir. Wilder; 6-
