If you loved After the Thin Man, try The Thin Man

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by W.S. Van Dyke, and they sit in Comedy / Crime / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to After the Thin Man, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Thin Man is

A Manhattan brownstone, Christmas week. A fox-fur muff muffles a gunshot. A wisecracking detective and his wife toast to Black Label while their schnauzer digs through a dead man's pockets. A Manhattan brownstone, Christmas week. A fox-fur muff muffles a gunshot.
