Well, it's not as good as The Thin Man, but it is still quite fun.

What did you think of all the Thin Man movies, by the way? I think they're great, as you know.

I thought that William Powell and Myrna Loy were excellent together and enjoyed all of the 6 films very much. The first and second were the best and 3, 4 and 5 were close behind. The weakest imo were nr 6 (Song of the Thin Man). Their wit and chemistry are perfect and thanks to the thread with a poll about all of the other movies they played together apart from Thin Man I have more to check out.

Tried your TCM-link and it seems I can't watch it here in Sweden. Will keep an eye out for it elsewhere. Next on my watchlist is The Ghost Breakers (1940) which I'm guessing isn't a whodunit-kind of film! This is another title I picked up in another thread here and got interested in. Invaluable to get all these great inspirations from all you guys.

So nice to hear that you enjoyed them too!

The first is one of my very favorite movies.

Sorry that the TCM link doesn't work in Sweden. No worries, though: Fast Company is fun, but it's nowhere near the quality or infectious joy of the Thin Man movies. The Ghost Breakers is a great deal of fun as well, so it's a good choice for the next movie on your watchlist!
