Humphry Bogart? The guy from the Rockford Files? The experimental film done entirely in first person? Me, I'm going for Elliot Gould. Because it was a classy film, with some neat musical tricks and the like...

The best "Almost Marlowe" is of course Peter Falk in Death By Murder... Or was he? OR WAS HE?

Well, yes, he was in the end I think... Death By Murder, a film that is genius and garbage in equal measure.

Possibly, which makes me feel more than a little dumb. I may have called the film by the wrong name for many years.

No Dick Powell? Actually, I was chatting to John Travis about how the old George Sanders film The Falcon Takes Over is an adaptation of Farewell, My Lovely and he said he actually prefers it to FML. Of course Sanders plays The Falcon rather than Philip Marlowe but still ...
