Originally slotted as one of M-G-M’s "B" pictures, this screwball comedy/murder mystery was boosted to box-office smash by the natural elegance and charm of its leads, William Powell and Myrna Loy, as Nick and Nora Charles. Nick is a carousing retired detective whose latest case puts him on the trail of a missing "thin man," Nora is his wealthy heiress wife, and Asta is their terrier pooch. W.S. Van Dyke directs from Dashiell Hammett's novel; with Maureen O'Sullivan, Nat Pendleton, and Edward Ellis. 91 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English DTS HD mono Master Audio; Subtitles: English (SDH).
