The Long Goodbye

No upcoming showtimes scheduled.
Director: Robert Altman
1973 / 112min / 35mm

Elliott Gould plays a distinctly low-key and somewhat bumbling version of Raymond Chandler’s gumshoe Philip Marlowe in Altman’s singular private dick movie, which updates the source material to a smog-and-pot-hazy 1970s Los Angeles. A mystery involving a missing friend, a sadistic gangster, and a Hemingway-esque novelist (Sterling Hayden) draws Marlowe into a tangle of double-crosses, towards a revelation that will make him reconsider his nonchalant motto: “It’s okay with me.”
