Based on Dashiell Hammett's classic noir novel, director W. S. Van Dyke ramped up its Pre-Code humor for a crime cocktail that's sexy, hysterical and thrilling. Nick Charles is a retired detective, Nora Charles is rich, and together they get bombed on martinis, make passes at one another, and solve murders, all the while their fox terrier Asta leaps about wondering why no one's listening to him. This witty crime comedy was a box-office blockbuster and spawned five sequels.
