Synopsis

Humphrey Bogart plays knight-in-shining armour (or at least a scruffy raincoat) Philip Marlowe in this classic film noir - a shabby private detective hired for the seemingly simple task of keeping an eye on a bigwig's wild-child daughter. But the detective is soon up to his neck in bodies amid the corruption of privileged Los Angeles. Not that Bogie minds - he gets to spar with the girl's older sister, as played by his real-life future wife Lauren Bacall.
