The 1934 model of The Thin Man was directed by W.S. Van Dyke and primarily based on the novel of the identical identify by Dashiell Hammett. The movie is famend for its witty script, subtle characters, and the charismatic chemistry between its leads, William Powell and Myrna Loy, who play Nick and Nora Charles. Nick, a former non-public detective, and Nora, his rich and playful spouse, turn into embroiled in a homicide thriller whereas on trip in New York City. With the assistance of their terrier, Asta, the duo navigates a world of intrigue, suspects, and cocktail events, mixing humor with suspense. The film spawned 5 sequels.
Rob Nixon and Margarita Landazuri for Turner Classic Movies, stated of the movie: “What makes the film so entertaining is not the unraveling of the murder but the movie’s central relationship of Nora and Nick Charles, one that redefined the screen depiction of marriage. It also helped to set the tone and style of a new, then-emerging Hollywood genre — the screwball comedy.”
There’s no phrase on casting, but it surely’s not too far-fetched to assume that Robbie and Pitt may star within the movie. This is a venture that they’re clearly very eager on creating, so why not star in it?
