ALL WINNERS HAVE BEEN CONTACTED. CONTEST IS CLOSED. (If you won tickets, please note the corrected location for the screening.)
But we've got another screening happening that same night for "It's Complicated."
Details here.
This week, I'm offering a chance to take a break from holiday shopping and see how Hollywood has treated the world's most famous detective.
Yes, I've got tickets to an advance screening of “Sherlock Holmes,” starring Robert Downey Jr. It's happening Monday, December 21st at 7:30 at UA Galaxy.
There's no mystery to winning them. All you have to do is, in the space below, comment on your favorite mystery (whether in print, on film, in life, or wherever). THEN you need to e-mail me at lharry@ibj.com with "Sherlock" on the subject line. You must do both.
Winners will be picked at random beginning Friday until all passes are gone. I'll send an electronic code to claim your ticket online. There's no need this time to visit the IBJ offices to pick them up.
As is usual for these screenings, a pass does not guarantee admission. You must arrive early. Once the seats are filled, even pass holders will be turned away.
Your favorites?

The Usual Suspects, Seven, In the Heat of the Night, Reservoir Dogs, The Departed, L.A. Confidential and Memento.
My favorite mystery book of all time is a tie between two children's books: THE WESTING GAME, by Ellen Raskin, and FROM THE MIXED-UP FILES OF MRS. BASIL E. FRANKWEILER, by E. L. Konigsburg. I also spent most of my weekly allowance on Nancy Drew books when I was in elementary school.
My favorite place to buy mystery books is The Mystery Company, which is up in Carmel. They have a quirky selection of new mysteries tied to just about whatever hobby or type of PI you're interested in (gardening? feng shui? physically challenged? Hoosier?) plus a large selection of used books at bargain prices.
I am sorry that I can not go to see "Sherlock Holmes" on December 21, but I am enjoying reading everyone's responses! I hope everyone writes about the movie afterwards, too.
