With this one [ASiB], you said it’s not Holmes in love. It’s Holmes and love. Was the reason you decided to kick off the series with that because of the impact that Benedict’s made in Sherlock Holmes? ..Steven Spielberg has said that this is the greatest screen Holmes ever. But also, you know, that there’s a massive female fanbase out there as well. So was it partly for titillation that you went in on a love story on the first one? [x]
