Review of The Big Sleep (1946) by April V — 17 Dec 2012
Great film with Bogart playing private eye Philip Marlowe. Hired by a rich lady (Bacall who is absolutely awesome) to look into matters involving her wild sister, Marlowe becomes embroiled in a complicated mystery. This flick has so many twists and turns you may lose track of what's going on but it's an entertaining ride. This is one of Bogie's best role and when teamed with Bacall, they make one hell of a team. One of my favorite films of all time. I will put it up against any of the blockbusters from today. Highly recommended.
Philip Marlowe: My, my, my! Such a lot of guns around town and so few brains! You know, you're the second guy I've met today that seems to think a gat in the hand means the world by the tail.
