Два неудачливых детектива, Моррис Флинн и его друг Макки, «разыгрывают» с удовольствием Шерлока Холмса и доктора Уотсона. Все выглядит реально вплоть до маскировки. Даже полиция просит у них детективную помощь. Мэри и Джейн Берри, две молодые девушки, должны унаследовать от «богатого дяди», большое наследство. На самом деле, жажда наживы всё ещё очень жива у разыскиваемых мошенников, которые всегда могут избежать полиции. Теперь во время Парижской всемирной выставки они могут раскрыть все свои скрытые навыки, а также их образцовые модели, и, благодаря тщательной детальной работе, окончательно арестовать подельщиков. Но тогда Холмс и Ватсон сами арестовываются, и их личность подвергается сомнению, - смеясь отмечает писатель сэр Артур Конан Дойл, изобретатель новых персонажей.

This presentation of 'Waterloo', a film by Karl Grune about the last hurrah of Napoleon, is a fascinating companion to the Abel Gance epic 'Napoleon'. 'Waterloo' presents a tale of several people involved in the final battle. Napoleon and Wellington, of course, but also the Austrian general Blutcher (who is seen as a ladies' man - his scene with a flirty Countess about halfway through the film is priceless; as are his touching scenes with his plain wife (who he imagines to be a young and nubile girl when they get romantic) and some people within his regiment. Not simply a film of war, 'Waterloo' is a story of people, of lovers, of lost opportunities.
