Well, I saw “Withnail and I” last night, all the way through for the first time and……yknow……do you think it maybe influenced BBC Sherlock? (Have people already talked about this and I missed it?)The styling above looked very familiar; but there’s also this pretty obvious queer subtext (coupled with overt homosexual panic, in the movie, less so in the series) that felt…familiar. And, you know, two guys living together in a co-dependent relationship…I just have a feeling there’s a real influence there. (But then I also felt Withnail was influenced to some extent by BBC’s “Brideshead”…) -- source link
