    Some 20 feature-length movies and seemingly countless radio and television series centering on Sherlock Holmes have been filmed since the first eight-minute, black-and-white reel about the fictional detective was produced in 1908. And yet Philippe Rousselot, the cinematographer behind the latest — Guy Ritchie’s amped-up take on the Arthur Conan Doyle creation, “Sherlock Holmes” — made it a point to avoid seeing any of them. I read books about Sherlock Holmes when I was in my teens, but I don’t recall seeing any movies or television series,” says the Oscar-winning director of photography (“A River Runs Through It”). “I usually don’t look at DVDs of franchise-type movies because I don’t want to be influenced by what has been done before, but I watched every film that Guy Ritchie has directed.”
