Nick and Nora Charles cordially invite you to bring your own alibi to The Thin Man, the jaunty whodunit that made William Powell and Myrna Loy the champagne elite of sleuthing. Bantering in the boudoir, enjoying walks with beloved dog Asta or matching each other highball for highball and clue for clue, they combined screwball romance with mystery. (official distributor synopsis)

A great film that shows how a darker detective story can easily complement comedy. However, comedy indeed prevails in this case. Yet when you have such a great couple in the lead, it's just a joy to watch. Moreover, it's truly a pleasant detective story that has a Christie-style revelation of the murderer at the end.
