Hello! I'm Lindsey. Michigander. Lover of all things film and history. I write about old movies on my wordy blog, The Motion Pictures. Here, I just share the things that I like, mostly cultural tidbits from early to mid-20th century USA.

Even at their first meeting, the audacious exchange of sweaty detective and martini-cool Vivian (a scene closely based on the book), the film contrives to discover a level of sexual innuendo and hostile attraction not really grasped by Chandler.
