More background on mystery & detective posters

Suspense is often added to this type of flick as the protagonist struggles within the usually puzzle-like narrative to where he or she investigates all motives, only to discover the one essential clue or or flaw that reveals the identity of the culprit. One of the most famous examples of this in fiction is the quintessential detective, Sherlock Holmes. Considered to be the world's first private detective, he was derived from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's literary works and eventually became the fictional character most frequently recurring on the screen. As to date, Sherlock has appeared in over 200 films since 1900 and been played by well over 70 actors! Mystery & detective posters by Photowall pays homage to this legend in the form of motifs such as Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. This wonderful image shows the British actor Basil Rathbone who appeared during the World War II years in 14 pictures from about 1939 to 1946. This classic can now be the gorgeous addition to your home or office interior decoration.

Even though modernized interpretations of film noir became more graphic as time passed, and the limitations of what could and could not been shown on film was less and less, it is still the sense of intrigue that captivates the viewers. Chinatown may not be as brutally violent as those that would follow, but it certainly did not need to be. Mystery & detective posters like Chinatown - Jack Nicholson shows the iconic actor in one of his signature roles.
