The words breezy and charming aren’t typically used to describe murder-mystery movies, but then again, The Thin Man (1934) isn’t your typical murder mystery. Trading on the effervescent chemistry of its stars William Powell and Myrna Loy, this soft-boiled Dashiell Hammett adaptation tells the story of Nick (Powell) and Nora Charles (Loy), a former detective and his wealthy socialite wife, who team up to investigate the mystery of a missing inventor.
