[QUOTE="jrtaster, post: 203345, member: 888"] no, actually watson asks one of the other characters, one capt. simpson, if HE is smoking seaweed, after inhaling some of the smoke from that character's pipe. HOLMES interjects by asking capt simpson: "cuban?" capt. simpson replies :"aye...flavoured with jamaican rum!" Holmes: words to the effect " i suppose you're not much bothered by tobacco borrowers?" later, in another scene, as watson and holmes prepare for a night vigil to prevent another murder, watson asks "how can you smoke that beastly stuff?" to which holmes replies words to the effect that "smoking strong tobacco helps one stay awake," as you pointed out. by far, House of Fear is THE rathbone/holmes film most loaded with references to pipes, tobaccos and pipe smoking. in fact a pipe tobacco canister is a prime clue in establishing the murder(ers') identity. the film is GREAT fun!!!! jr/john [/QUOTE]
