The Long Goodbye – Ep04


How many hard boiled detectives do you know who’d go out at three o’clock in the morning to buy their kitty its favorite brand of cat food? Only one. Philip Marlowe, played oh so languidly by Elliot Gould, in The Long Goodbye.

Expect the unexpected when veteran director Robert Altman brings Raymond Chandler’s classic 1940’s detective into the modern day (well, 1973 anyway). With brilliant performances by Sterling Hayden, Mark Rydell, & and (**spoiler alert**) a young Arnold Schwarzenegger sporting a really cheesy mustache! Screenplay by legendary writer Leigh Bracket and photographed by Academy Award winner Vilmos Zsigmond. Hey, what the heck else do you want? Join us! (Cocktails optional).
