The classic Raymond Chandler novel is given a laid-back satirical cinematic twist by Robert Altman with a distinctly 70s LA groove, complete with pot-smoking-all-women-hippie-commune neighbours and a Marlow who is a closer relative of Jeff Bridges’ The Dude in The Big Lebowski than Bogart’s in The Big Sleep.

Screening as part of Out of Their Depth: Corruption, Scandal and Lies in the New Hollywood.
