site layout and other thoughts (warning – boring non-Baz post, ignore unless you’re as picky and OCD as I am)
The Baz Posted by Neve on Aug 11, 2012
Ookay. When I started this blog last month I had no idea it would catch on with people to the extent or at the speed it seems to this has nothing to do with anything – I just like it – I love that the artist has caught that little tuft of hair he often had at the back of his headhave don read more
The Confession Seduction Scene (or what is that organ doing there?)
The Baz Posted by Neve on Aug 8, 2012
In our first post-Sherlock Holmes Week article, we’re changing theme and tempo and taking a brief glimpse at one of the Baz’s pre-Holmes movies – that gem of the incongruous, beautiful and just plain strange, Confession.
Made in 1937, just over a year and a half before Rathbon read more

The Best Candids Ever…
The Baz Posted by Neve on Jul 22, 2012
Thought I’d do an occasional series of the best candid photos I know of. And to kick off here’s one featuring not just one but two of my heroes – the Baz and the Flynn!
What I love about this – in addition to the two lovely guys – is the way it’s captured a mome read more

The Baz Posted by Neve on Jul 20, 2012
Well, 45 years ago today, July 21 1967, Basil Rathbone died in NYC, on what was also his son Rodion’s 52nd birhtday.
To mark this sombre day for us Rathbone fans I’m going back to a film I talked about recently. Yes! thanks to Lolita at Lolita’s Classics I am now the proud owner read more

A small amount of insightful biography
The Baz Posted by Neve on Jul 11, 2012
A while ago I stumbled on this blogpost…
ttp://laszlosonlex.blogspot.co.uk/2010/08/basil-rathbone-1892-1967-today-august-1.html
It’s a reprint of the sales catalogue for the auction of the Rathbone estate following Ouida’s death in 1975, and is -surprisingly enough – one read more
Basil Rathbone at the NPG
The Baz Posted by Neve on Jul 8, 2012
Did anyone know the Baz had six images at the National Portrait Gallery in England? Nope, neither did I. In fact I stumbled on them totally by chance while doing some esoteric search for the stage production of Peter Ibbetson that BR starred in back in 1920.
But he does indeed have six pics at read more

The Mad Doctor
The Mad Doctor (aka A Date with Destiny) has to be the best Basil Rathbone movie I’ve never seen. The Baz playing gorgeous but insane serial wife-killer, with the amazing Martin Kosleck as his heavily implied gay lover, John Howard as Ellen Drew’s nice but boring rescu read more
Watchman, What of the Night?
The Baz Posted by Neve on Jun 30, 2012
the Baz & Wendy Hiller in “The Heiress” Ok, might as well make the first post a bit left-fieldish. I’ve been preparing for this blog for a while, asking friends and collectors for tidbits and morsels, doing a lot of web exploring, which can occasionally bring up nicely une read more
