Summary: irresistable
Comment: Snappy dialogue, sassy chemistry, hilariously campy supporting players, gorgeous art deco sets and costumes and enough booze to float the Navy! How can you resist? Oh, and ASTA the wonder dog! I have loved these movies since I was a little kid watching them after school on the "Million Dollar Movie." It is my idealized version of New York and what being married to your best friend ought to be. I will put these movies on when 21st century life gets too techno, when the news on TV too bleak, and I will be transported to an era of witty repartee and satin evening gowns. The murder mysteries, in my opinion, are just an excuse for the delightful duo of William Powell and Myrna Loy to dress up and have fun! As refreshhing as a dry, ice cold martini!

Summary: Better together
Comment: I'm so sad that people had to wait years in between these gems -- I can barely stand to wait the 3 minutes it takes me to swap disks. William Powell is delightful -- sexy in a fatherly way which makes him irresistible. If he's crazy about Myrna Loy, so am I. The first one perfects that "who done it" scene where we suspect everyone. I started drinking martini's to waltzes after the first. The second one shares a very young Jimmy Stewart and introduces the cranky but lovable Lt. "Abrahamson". The scene with the gentlemen in the smoking room is the best. Back to NY for the third and Myrna is a mom. The Rhumba scene makes me sweat. Return to CA and "oh give me the road. . . I don't tell you how to run the house" scene and the famous "sea bass" scene. My husband and I order sea bass every time we can just to poorly recreate the scene with our dreadful Italian accents. Then Nick goes home and on the wagon. I find this one has the sweetest romantic scenes between Nick and Nora. Love it. I like the final one, but it's sad that it means the series is over. Blessings on all who worked on these treasures and to the geniuses that made them available as a set. I love when actors reappear throughout the series. These movies make any sad day happy and I've just about worn my copies out. This collection represents the only DVD's I have that I won't lend out to anyone, ever. PS I love the other Powell/Loy collection -- check out Love Crazy and you'll fall in love with Nick and Nora all over again, whatever their names are!

The sparkling series featured the irresistible William Powell and Myrna Loy chemistry as husband and wife sleuths who solved murders with the aid of their wire-haired terrier, Asta. Set in the glamorous world of 1930s upper-class Manhattan, The Thin Man and its sequels established the standard for witty comedy, clever dialogue and urbane one upmanship. The 7-Disc set includes THE THIN MAN, AFTER THE THIN MAN, ANOTHER THIN MAN, SHADOW OF THE THIN MAN, SONG OF THE THIN MAN, THE THIN MAN GOES HOME, and the ALIAS NICK & NORA bonus documentary disc.
