		It is common wisdom that the Thin Man sequels adhere to the law of diminishing returns, and while none of the follow-ups reach the diamond level of the first film, all afford pleasures.
		Another Thin Man (1939) and Shadow of the Thin Man (1941) lack the edge of the first two films but the Charles at their weakest are better than most murder mysteries..
		The Thin Man Goes Home (1944), which had Nick and Nora visiting Nick's parents is the 'turkey' in the series, a folksy trip similar to an Andy Hardy movie.

	The Thin Man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Thin Man is the title of the first of six comic detective films starring William Powell and Myrna Loy as Nick and Nora Charles, a hard-drinking and flirtatious married couple who banter wittily as they easily solve crimes.
		Their dog, the Wire-Haired Fox Terrier, Asta, played by Skippy, was also a popular character.
		The "Thin Man" of the title was actually the murder victim, but the name was thought by virtually everyone to refer to Nick Charles, and it was used in the titles of the sequels, although no one ever called him that.

		MGM was not entirely enthusiastic about 1934's THE THIN MAN and even less so about the casting of Myrna Loy as Nora Charles--and director W.S. "Woody" Van Dyke was determined to have her the studio gave in with poor grace.
		Directed by Richard Thorpe, the 1945 THE THIN MAN GOES HOME suffered from an incredibly weak script; although the film is amusing in its way it is a clinker in comparison with the other films in the series.

		Times had changed in the thirteen years since The Thin Man, and the 30's-style frothy comedy was no longer in style.
		The verve and snap that were the Charles' trademarks didn't lend itself to the dark post-war genre of movie-making.
		In other words, it was time to pack it in, and thus, Song of the Thin Man became the swan song for The Thin Man series.

		The Thin Man was set over the Christmas holiday and was the first time audiences got to enjoy the banter of Nick and Nora, as ex-detective Nick was pushed into action, martini in hand, by his better half.
		After the Thin Man was nearly as much fun as the origional, as Nick and Nora, to Nora's delight and Nick's dismay, became involved in another mystery set immediately following their adventures in the origional.
		But the Thin Man films were always about how much fun the audience could have watching Nick and Nora interact as she pushed Nick into action, drink in hand.

		The Thin Man, Dashiell Hammett's classic tale of murder in Manhattan, became the popular movie series with William Powell and Myrna Loy, and both the movies and the novel continue to captivate new generations of fans.
		The Thin Man is more of a "Who Dunnit?" romp that deals with the collection of dysfunctional folks who have ties with the disappearance and the murder.
		The last of Dashiell Hammett's novels was "The Thin Man," and what a last novel it is. A hard-edged whodunnit, Hammett's writing had become very polished and his characters even more intricate by the time he wrote this, and while it's not the best he had written, it's a solid example of his work.

	The DVD Journal \| Quick Reviews: Song of the Thin Man
		The last film in the Thin Man series, Song of the Thin Man (1947) finds Nick and Nora Charles on a fundraising cruise, gambling for charity and enjoying some fine jazz.
		Considering this was the last franchise entry, it's surprisingly one of the most enjoyable Thin Man movies, and it boasts a stunning cast — playing the Charles' son Nicky, Jr.
		Warner's DVD release of Song of the Thin Man, part of the seven-disc "Thin Man Collection," is not a remastered edition, but it's nonetheless clean, crisp and gorgeous — a very good transfer all the way around.

		It turns out to be Ames, the dead man's business manager, with whom he had quarrelled over the bandleader's attentions toward his wife, Morison.
		The formula had definitely gone stale by this time, the sixth THIN MAN film and the 13th and last Powell-Loy teaming in as many years.
		As always with the two stars, the film is well worth watching, but it had come down a long way from the first series entry more than a decade before.

	The Thin Man (1934)
		The Thin Man (1934) is the first installment of a popular series of films casting a sophisticated, glamorous, pleasure-seeking, and urbane husband-wife detective team (William Powell and Myrna Loy as Nick and Nora Charles).
		The husband and wife team (billed as "the happiest married couple in radio") was also broadcast on radio (by Pabst Blue Ribbon) for many years, with Claudia Morgan in the role of Nora, and a number of actors in Nick's role (Lester Damon, Les Tremayne, Joseph Curtin, and David Gothard).
		As the film opens, an eccentric, tall, wealthy businessman/inventor named Clyde Wynant (Edward Ellis) - the "thin man" of the film title, is in his inventor's workshop - viewed first as a silhouette cast on a wall.

	filmcritic.com Movie Review: Song of the Thin Man
		It wouldn’t be Hollywood if they didn’t wring too much out of a good idea, an axiom proven with Song of the Thin Man, the none-too-memorable conclusion to the six-film Thin Man series which started in 1934.
		Although disappointing as a Thin Man film overall, one can’t say that this is entirely a waste of time.
		Powell and Loy are always entertaining companions, especially the former, who comes off as more of a (albeit snide) romantic here: “Darling, give me my pipe, slippers, and a beautiful woman, and you can keep the pipe and slippers,” though Loy is always there to undercut him with a dry bon mot.

	Amazon.com: The Thin Man (Snap Case) (1934): DVD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The success of The Thin Man spawned a litter of sequels, including After the Thin Man (featuring a young James Stewart), Another Thin Man (in which a baby is added to the Charles family), Shadow of the Thin Man, The Thin Man Goes Home, and Song of the Thin Man.
		THE THIN MAN is a landmark film in so many ways that it is difficult to over-estimate either its impact or its brilliance.
		Regrettably, the DVD release has not been restored, and although the print is crisp it does contain a number of blemishes; similarly, although the DVD does include trailers for all of the "Thin Man" films Powell and Loy made, the bonus features hardly do justice to the film's inexhaustible charms.
