Didn't he say he was going to leave America because we were too violent? Or some bs like that?<br /><br />Dan, Myrna's first close-up in THE THIN MAN is silly gorgeous.

All their movies are fun -- not just the Thin Man Movies. And anyone playing Nick Charles would have to act as un-Powellish as possible. He was just too iconic in the role.<br /><br />That said I always thought Danny DeVito would've made the perfect Continental Op back around the mid 1980s<br /><br />Dan LuftAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5401124973760279564.post-1659915621131501072011-03-23T20:50:05.466-04:002011-03-23T20:50:05.466-04:00DEAR LORD, WHY????????
