Review of Murder, My Sweet (1944) by Adrian B — 14 May 2010
Not the best film noir mystery I have seen, but it was an interesting story. One of my problems here is who played Philip Marlowe: Dick Powell. I kept comparing him to Humphrey Bogart playing the same character in the classic "The Big Sleep.
" I am afraid Bogart is better than Powell. If I had seen this film before "The Big Sleep," I probably would have enjoyed him and the movie. The dream sequences were interesting and they look like they may have been done by Salvador Dali.
They reminded me Hitchcock's Spellbound and there was a doors within doors scene in both of these film.
