Mindless astray stoner noir, with a script that mirrors that same clueless baffling stoner view. Marlborough Man, aimlessly trying to track down his friend, a cash trail, a dead wife, and a cast of characters that pass in and out. Would I call it an amazing movie? No, but movies like Inherent Vice, The Big Lebowski, Under a Silver Lake, etc owe quite a bit of themselves to it.

Came here for TNG's *The Big Goodbye* (TNG S01E12). Stayed because I like the genre and this happens to be a genuinely good movie. This probably ain't the best film noir I have ever seen and I don't even like the main character but the mere fact that such movies are rare these days makes this worth a watch. Tbh I'm not even sure that this movie still qualifies as film noir. The cast, the plot, locations, the cat, Marlowe's Lincoln Continental and the cinematography are quite okay though. Plus: a spectacular appearance of a future governor and an equally spectacular 5000$ bill. PS: those libertine neighbors are great.

A script with some incredibly clever dialogue, brought to life by a wonderful cast of memorable characters. The seedy belly of the detective underworld is contrasted by the flair of 70s glam, giving the film an uneasy and almost surreal tone. This is only aided further by the smooth, jazzy soundtrack that just eases itself along throughout the film, with plenty of great diegetic moments, adding to the surrealism. And it's all encapsulated within an inventive cinematic lens with loads of unique and interesting shots adorning each and every frame. Truly a masterpiece of its time, and easily recommendable to anybody who enjoys good cinema.

The main performance alone is worth watching the movie. Lots of performances that get praised are so show-off-y but this one has such an effortless, naturalistic type.

Pretty good 1970s-era neo-noir drama almost entirely relies on the performance from Elliot Gould and the mystery element was well done, though the ending was somewhat predictable but satisfying. **3.75/5**

Proof if ever it were needed that no good deed goes unpunished! "Marlowe" (Elliott Gould) is woken up in the middle of the night by his mate ("Lennox") who urgently needs driving to Tijuana. He obliges, only to find that on his return the police are waiting for him. Seems that his pal's wife has bee More

A detached chain-smoking private detective in Los Angeles (Elliott Gould) finds himself hounded by the police after driving a friend to Mexico late one night (Jim Bouton). Upon taking a gig by the wife of a writer to More
