I've just watched it! I was laughing so hard at the beginning when Pietro shouts "Puttana!" ("whore") at his sister over and over. XD Sadly, many Italian men are still like that. -__- The Italian dialogues were perfect, though. :)
Also, do you know if mafia was mentioned in the book too? I mean, of course it already existed at the time, but it would be kinda sad to find it in a Sherlock Holmes novel, it would mean it was already "famous" (or rather infamous) back then.
I also laughed at Holmes speaking Italian, he's got such a strong accent. XD
