Set in Los Angeles in 1941, private detective Philip Marlowe (Robert Mitchum) is hired by the surly ex-convict Moose Malloy (Jack O'Halloran) to locate his former girlfriend, Velma. Marlowe finds that once he has taken the case, events conspire to put him in dangerous situations, and he is forced to follow a confusing trail of untruths and double-crosses before he is able to locate Velma.

"The house itself wasn't much. It was smaller than Buckingham Palace and probably had fewer windows than the Chrysler building..." With Marlowe, it was never about how well he could throw a punch, handle a weapon, or his physical condition, but rather the "sound" of the actor portraying him. Forget about age, Robert Mitchum nails it and brings the necessary lightness to the role. That lightness might be missing, except in the case of the cop Harry Dean Stanton, disregarded by those around him, but when it comes to the journey of a weary private investigator, where between the sudden start and the anticipated end, there are a few beatings, surprises, seemingly meaningless detours, and corpses, you can count on it. Maybe it was the neon lights, but not once did I think there were too many colors.
