Sherlock Holmes: Dressed to Kill (English Subtitled)
Mystery.
A convicted thief in Dartmoor prison (played by an uncredited Cyril Delevanti) hides the location of stolen Bank of England printing plates inside three music boxes (each of which plays a subtly different version of "The Swagman"). The boxes are sold at a local auction house.
A criminal gang's brains belong to a darkly beautiful, ruthless woman, who is also a "consummate actress," as Sherlock Holmes learns. She disguises herself as a charwoman and speaking Cockney, she talks to both Holmes and Watson, whom she pretends not to recognize, and leaves with a music box right under their noses.
Holmes must recover the last music box to crack the secret code contained in the tune before it is too late. (Wikipedia)
