You left out two great ones, both from "The Thin Man:" Nora: "What is that man doing in my drawers?" and Lt.Gill to Nick: "Ever heard of the Sullivan Act?" Nora: "Oh, that's all right; we're married."
@Cavillier1970 --- they do, but you have to be a detective like Nick Charles to find them. (And you have to be Nick Charles to hold onto one once you've found her.)
They should be held up as the gold standard for an awesome marriage. I hate that fat-guy-skinny-wife or dumb-guy-smart-wife, or man is pussy-whipped, ex-wife is a bitch bullshit in modern media, and the total infantilisation of men and the depiction of women as shrill evil humorless harpies. We need more examples of good successful marriages where both spouses are equally cool people.
@Chizpurfle52595 -- Yes, it is said that millions of those famous golden marriages of the 30s and 40s were actually inspired and sustained by the Thin Man films.
From After The Thin Man you need to put up the clip of when Nick is at the long table pretending to have a discussion with a bunch of old men who are fast asleep
I just heard that they are going to remake The Thin Man and Johnny Depp is being strongly considered to play Nick Charles and Rob Marshell is going to direct it.
Another great series is the Topper series on a deary day w/ popcorn. B&W movies are great. Movies like Harvey to It's a Wonderful Life, to Bob Hope to Cary Grant .. Frankenstein to The Wolfman.. Great times in movie making.
i was watching an old movie on my laptop at work today, and a coworker came in. He turned his nose up at the black and white movie, and I told him he was crazy. Then I said, "you should watch the Thin Man series" and googled this.
I agree that Hollywood only makes crap today. The current batch of public schooled loser writers couldn't come anywhere near the genius of The Thin Man.
How come when Nora says "I was just a gleam, in my father's eye" in the first Thin Man right before they serve dinner to all the suspects, Nick gapes at Nora with wide eyes...? I'm young so I guess if that was suggesting something I missed it.
you are so welcome dawn i love sharing on black and white movies i was a theatre major in college and that was my era just let me know when you watch it and what you think
and look at it this way no blowing people up no sex just plain good old fashioned talent these are the movies that made me go into acting actors like this and cary grant and such i love the glamour of it all the men always wore suits no matter what and i love the ladies in there nylons and hats women just do not do that anymore
@10Dec1971 wernt they you sound like you know a lot about old black and white films have you ever tried arsonic and old lace with cary grant if not it is on you tube well last time i checked it was on here i promise you will love it
They certainly dont make films like The Thin Man anymore. Is there nything better than watching Myrna Loy & WIlliam Powell. and dont forget the Matini's
This stuff is timeless. Nora is hot and Nick is suave. Warner Bros. celebrated the centenary of Myrna Loy’s birth by releasing the Thin Man movies to DVD in 2005. Yet the dialogue still sparkles.
LoL @ 0:41, when Sheldon Leonard says "When you hear the chime it will be exactly", @ 0:52 the bald headed guy next to the deaf woman starts to laugh. I love when someone breaks character and cracks up, it's just as funny to watch someone try not to laugh.
@aqrose You're right, I didn't realize it until after I posted it, but I was like "well, someone will corrected me one of these days. It took forever for someone to catch that thought. Sad, but still, it's a classic, and great movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
"He didn't come anywhere near my tabloids" is not only one of the all-time-great film lines, it is also (unfortunately) a great argument for censorship. Had the writers been allowed whatever they liked, this line would never have been written.
It really makes me sad that all the good ones have left us.... or are leaving us. What a shame. What will we be left with? What we have now.....OH, God save us all!
I love the Thin Man series -- have th whole collection on DVD. I often mused as to who could portray Nick and Nora these days -- among the current crop of "movie stars". The answer -- NOBODY!
hahaha, I can't believe they had lines like this back then. Totally witty. The last I knew of wit like this was the Naked Gun and Airplane type movies.
Priceless. No wonder that Hollywood never attempted to re-do the Thin Man films.. (not counting the TV series with Peter Lawford)..no one could fill their shoes, or their martini glasses!!!
oh my they are my fav on screen couple. the movies they did even the ones that wern't the thin man movies are beautifully funny. -oewnaynailf- he punched her to keep her safe if that makes sence, lol you should watch the movie. Thanks for posting it
@kives1985 Yeah. ^^ To be fair, he wanted to make sure she didn't get in the way and possibly get shot when he attacked the dude with the gun. And she was only annoyed that she missed seeing the fight.
"You may serve the nuts. I mean you mayu serve the guests the nuts" Lol Myrna is such a doll! and these 3 are such a great screen team! u cant help but love them
@OTRNut I agree with you whole-heartedly! I can't think of an actress or actor who could convincingly deliver those lines or any lines like those! And it's a sad state of entertainment we have currently!
@xXLuxAeternaXx It's nice to see some young people takng an interest in The Thin Man series. Your statement of the rubbish aimed at your generation is correct. Things are getting worse on a daily basis.
@Lockemeister What's worse is that most people assume everyone of my generation enjoys the rubbish - admittedly, the majority do, but I can't stand people assuming just because I'm young I have bad taste. But back to the Thin Man, I think its a criminally overlooked series - I'll rewatch the films and spot more jokes each time.
You can find practically anything on You tube.!!!! When we were little, my father came back from the US with.... The Thin Man, Charlie Chan, Fred and Ginger++ and used the videos to supplement our, US English, lessons. I always loved Nora and Nick!
The Powell/Loy combination is my favorite onscreen couple; they have to best chemistry! I love how flirty they are together yet still come off so smart and classy. It's far beyond other on-screen couples who are either just real misfits or way too sappy.

Twilight is great but I was talking about how The Thin Man is the best MOVIE series.. Twilight might not become a movie series but if it does it'll probably become a tie between the thin man series & Twilight for me :]]]
William Powell and Myrna Loy were so perfect together. I really can't think of a modern pair of actors that equal them. I'm a child of the 70s, but this makes me nostalgic for that time period.

Tell me, what would you do if you were a clever wordsmith working under the thumb of a studio tyrant? Churn out clean scripts or sneak in as many naughty bits as you could?
FYI, at 1:42 the dialog from the original Dashiell Hammitt novel read "Would you mind putting that gun away? My wife doesn't mind, but I'm pregnant and it might mark the baby."

Uh huh. Those screenwriters were all such pure-minded guys and gals.
Tell me, what would you do if you were a clever wordsmith working under the thumb of a studio tyrant? Churn out clean scripts or sneak in as many naughty bits as you could?

FYI, at 1:42 the dialog from the original Dashiell Hammitt novel read "Would you mind putting that gun away? My wife doesn't mind, but I'm pregnant and it might mark the baby."

Ha! That one is even better. I guess censorship had it removed from the script.

I watched a clip of this movie on YouTube & got the box set from the library. Loy & Powell made a great team!
