Between cocktails and the first course of a society dinner, urbane, dry-witted detectives and sophisticates Nick and Nora Charles will show the police the holes in their investigation, unmask a brutal murderer and solve the mystery behind the disappearance of The Thin Man. When New York City private Nick Charles (William Powell) married wealthy Nora (Myrna Loy), he thought he was going to trade his gum-soled shoes for a life of luxury and leisure, but he soon discovers that Nora finds sleuthing both exciting and seductive. Now, this couple--with and a marriage as electric as an illicit affair and a banter as crisp as a glass of champagne--live, love, and solve crimes with an unmatched sense of style.

Powell and Loy are delightful — slurrily sexy in the manner of the 1930s, when words and glances had to do all of the work.

Because it has a book with good dialogue and sprightly movement to lean on, The Thin Man leans frankly on Hammett's novel for its effects. But The Thin Man also makes a very neat movie of itself.

It’s cocktail hour on the mystery beat: William Powell and Myrna Loy are Nick and Nora Charles, the world’s most debonair detective team...

The first of six Thin Man films, is a whodunit where the couple is effective in untying the web of backstabbing and also remain loving to each other, not faulting their chemistry which carries on throughout the whole series.

The Thin Man remains an unparalleled mixture of laughs and suspense that many have imitated but none have equaled.
