Another detective story by Raymond Chandler set in the 1940's has Phillip Marlowe on two cases, searching for a thug's girl and a jade necklace at the same time. What Marlowe doesn't realize is that the two seemingly unrelated cases are actually one and the same. Third remake of the story after The Falcon Takes Over (1942) and Murder, My Sweet (1945). Although the original sequel The Big Sleep (1946) was set in Los Angeles, the 1977 remake (again with Mitchum) was set in London. [More]

Truly fine neo-noir compares favorably with the 1944 version.
