Enola Holmes is a Netflix movie from 2020. I had watched it before but am watching it again in preparation to watch Enola Holmes 2. Enola (Millie Bobby Brown) is the younger sister of Sherlock (Henry Cavill) and Mycroft Holmes (Sam Claflin). Enola has been raised in an eccentric manner by her mother (Helena Bonham Carter) after her father dies and her older brothers head to London. When her mother disappears it creates a situation where Enola needs a ward--she is only sixteen. Mycroft takes the turn and insists she be sent to finishing school. Instead Enola sneaks away and heads to London to find her mother. However she instead gets involved in a case of a disappearance of Lord Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge.). Turns out Lord Tewkesbury is under threat of being murdered after his father was previously murdered. Sherlock suggests she dangle her feet in the water so as to draw out the sharks. This she does to almost getting herself and Lord Tewkesbury murdered. All over being able to influence the vote in the House of Lords.
This movie is loads of fun. The thing that makes it go is the character Enola Holmes as portrayed by Brown. The movie is based on the book series by Nancy Springer.
