Robert Altman's reinvention of noir stereotypes in The Long Goodbye is fantastic. Marlowe is much more interesting as the bumbling, friendly, clueless detective, than the grizzled cynic of 1940's detective fiction. Not to mention the dazzling finale, music and use of red herrings and misdirection. A must-see movie that's absurdly under-rated. 9 years 7 months ago -

Now this is what i'd call a "cool" film. Awesome all around, Gould's performance is excellent. Entertaining, well written, and wonderfully executed by Altman. Love the soundtrack and the humour too. 10 years 10 months ago
