90. The Big Sleep w/ Glen Rockney
Manage episode 451262580 series 3003629
Raymond Chandler defined Los Angeles as a corrupt labyrinth of hidden truths that only an adventurous detective with noir eyes, a steel spine, and a witty disgust for sham and pettiness could uncover. In this Gain of Fiction/FAA crossover, Glen Rockney and I uncover the modern day relevance of Chandler's first and best novel The Big Sleep (1939), and the classic Howard Hawks 1946 movie adaptation starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, and what they teach about being a man. We also mention the unclassic 1978 Michael Winner adaptation starring Robert Mitchum which Tarantino just ludicrously recommended.
