Neo-Noir is the theme. Robert Altman's "The Long Goodbye" (1973) is one of many Phillip Marlowe films made and it's one of the best. Elliot Gould is terrific as the mumbling, smart-ass gumshoe. We liked the film, but thought the ending was way out of character. "Brick" (2005) is modern day high school murder mystery that uses dialogue that came straight out of 40's film noir. It worked okay, but the plot was too confusing to make much sense and Joesph Gordon-Levitt (a show favorite) wasn't up to playing the lead.
We received an email from a listener named Jen and she gave us a few suggestions and one of those is "Harvey" (1950). So, the next theme is invisible rabbits and "Harvey" is paired with "Donnie Darko" (2001)
Thanks for listening!
