Shadows of Noir
20 - Murder, My Sweet
Join Marc and Dan as they dive headfirst into the world of Raymond Chandler with Murder, My Sweet from 1944. Based on Chandler's 1940 novel Farewell, My Lovely, it features one of the most iconic private eyes in all of crime literature/film, Philip Marlowe. Murder, My Sweet was monumental for the role in played in film noir's "discovery" by French film critics in 1946, and it's a discussion you certainly won't want to miss.
Shadows of Noir is also pleased to announce the noir book section of the website as well! There are source novels, reference books, and biographies for sale on the website, including several that relate to Murder, My Sweet directly. Check them out here!
