Summary:
The thin man: "The start of it all! Nick and Nora Charles invite you to bring your own alibi to Dashiell Hammett's jaunty whodunit about a missing inventor that made William Powell and Myrna Loy the champagne elite of sleuthing"--Container. After the thin man: "New Year's Eve and a new mystery surrounding the philandering husband of Nora's cousin. Round up the usual suspects, including James Stewart in an early screen role."--Container. Another thin man: "And baby makes three. Meet Nick, Jr. (and join the boithday bash throuwn by some of da boys) in this breezy outing that takes the Charleses to the Long Island estate of an industrialist who turns out to be a murder target."--Container. Shadow of the thin man: "Off to the races! The racetrack murder of a jockey and dinner at Mario's Grotto (try the sea bass!) highlight the fouth screen outing for William Powell and Myrna Loy as Nick and Nora Charles."--Container.
