Murder, My Sweet (1944)
The best Marlowe film there is!
21 October 2000 - 9 out of 10 users found this review helpful.
Probably the best Chandler adaptation there is. Dick Powell's Marlowe blows Bogart's clean out of the water, with a characterization much closer to Chandler's original. This Marlowe is a confused, sometimes naive, man trying to find his way in an emotionally and morally corrupt world. Claire Trevor's icy femme fatale is the controlling presence in the film making the men around her dance to her tune.
