50th Anniversary!

Robert Altman’s idiosyncratic adaptation of Raymond Chandler’s THE LONG GOODBYE casts the classic private eye Philip Marlowe not as a fast-talking tough guy but as a mumbling nebbish who shuffles his way through a case involving a friend’s apparent suicide.

“Altman holds genre clichés and conventions up to the light of modern life—and uses them as a prism to reveal its hidden tones.” – Richard Brody, New Yorker

“A logical (if less romantic) extension of Chandler’s vision of Marlowe as the last hurrah for chivalry in a fallen, postwar world.” – Sean Burns, Crooked Marquee
