The Hound of the Baskervilles is a 1981 Soviet film adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle's novel The Hound of the Baskervilles. It was the third installment in the TV series about adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson. A potent streak of humour ran through the film as concerns references to traditional British customs and stereotypes, ensuring the film's popularity with several generations of Russophone viewers. Other features of this best entry in the series include excellent exterior shots which closely match the novel's setting in the Dartmoor marshland, as well as an all-star cast: in addition to the famous Livanov -Solomin duo as Holmes and Watson, the film stars the internationally acclaimed actor/director Nikita Mikhalkov as Sir Henry Baskerville and the Russian movie legend Oleg Yankovsky as the villain Stapleton.

This case has been under investigation for five years, it has gone through all the courts, and there are so many papers in this case that they are "carried from one court to another on a cart." The case is known as the Muromsky case. The investigation is being conducted against Lidochka. She is suspected of knowing about Krechinsky's intention to rob Muromsky, of assisting him in this, and of providing this criminal assistance because she was having an illicit love affair with him.
