About The Big Sleep:
Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall ignite the screen in this classic film noir adaptation of Raymond Chandler's steamy detective novel. When private investigator Philip Marlowe (Bogart) accepts the blackmail case of one of Los Angeles' wealthiest men, his probe leads deep into a web of lies, drugs, pornography and murder woven around his client's two beautiful daughters. But Marlowe's most startling discovery is his inexorable attraction to one of the sisters.

That hat brim move and the dark glasses ... worth it. But the rye in the pocket - clean Ace. And when he leaves, says "so long, pal". Beautiful.
Absolutely.One of my favorite scenes in the movie,Wish he returned to the Acme Bookstore.Also wish he hooked up with the female cabdriver,!
Careful, I don't slap so good this time of evening. Great line. (--:
I liked when he told the librarian shortly before this, "I keep blondes in a bottle, too."
@@alansorensen5903 I stash redheads in my closet and blondes under the bed.
Never gets old- except for the “men don’t make passes” routine.
Dorothy Malone makes one hell of an impression!
Bogie and Bacall great movies
I think Bogie and Dorothy are more interesting than Bogie and Bacall. Also, Dorothy doesn't take off her glasses reflexively, just because a man interests her. He's the one who asks, she isn't self-conscious about them. I like this brunette, smart, confident Dorothy better than the blonde alcoholic mess that won her an Oscar for "Written on the Wind."
@@lemorab1 I was referring to the Dorothy Parker quote. Or one of those Algonquin Round Table sages.
I haven't watched this great movie since I was teen. It's great, I love the time period and in black and white. And the old cars in the movie. And the music, and the cinematography. A 100 years from now, people will still love this movie.
People often don't realize how much dry humor is baked into Raymond Chandler's Marlowe books, and it looks as if this film captures it well. I'll have to seek out the full version.
Being an Howard Hawks movie it's always "characters and entertainment over anything else". Much like Chandler, the mood is all that matters. The Big Sleep is the noir's noir.
The Big Sleep is a perfect combo of Film Noir and Screwball Comedy, from the master director Howard Hawks. Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall are at their best in this. Shoutout to Dorothy Malone, Martha Vickers, and Sonia Darrin as well(3 more actresses shown in this clip).
I'm currently rereading my Chandler. Gods, what a brilliant writer.
Interestingly, he had the same literary teacher as P.G. Wodehouse, who was a rather successful writer himself.
Wow.
That woman in the second bookstore really stole the scene.
Looks and acting.
☮
I thought she looked fine with the glasses, even better.
the greatness of this movie is manyfold; great original story, script doesn't insult your intelligence, superb acting, one must think to the plot, more............
It is not an original story. It is based on a novel.
@@hectorrodriguez2686 .......The genius of Raymond Chandler
Great movie. Was the librarian suggesting an after noon delight 😂
Sky rockets in flight.
Yup. Very subtle, because of censorship.
I got a little thrill playing the video game L.A. Noire. I found Geiger's Bookstore and, sure enough, if you look across the street, there's Acme Books.
Great Game! I didn't notice that. I'll have to look.
@@mosinmeister25 I did a guided play through of the story (looked up online hints, walkthroughs) just to have the free roaming of 40s Los Angeles.
As an opinion, Dorothy Malone’s performance in this book store scene to me is quite exceptional. Was she capable of that depth of feelings (a great actress) or was she actually making a bit of a play for Bogart? Believe Bogart was in the beginning stages of his relationship with Bacall. Not that Malone wanted to move in, but perhaps just trying the “waters” as it were. Regardless, one of my favorite scenes.
@rrsteamer........By all accounts, 19-year-old Malone was so nervous appearing opposite Bogart in this scene, her hands couldn't stop shaking and she kept spilling her drink. Hawks eventually solved the problem by putting lead weights in her cup.
@@thesoultwins72 Well, certainly hadn’t heard that story. Even so, she did a nice job and signs of nervousness were not evident. It would appear that the little bit of help from the director was enough to complete the scene nicely. Thanks for the info!
@@rrsteamer ........You're welcome. Although not my favourite film adaptation of Chandler's genius writing - it is still an exceptionally good film. And as you say, despite only a very brief cameo, Dorothy Malone performed her part really well.
WAS LAUREN MAIN STAR OR MALONE
A classic! The cars, the clothes, the dames: they don't make 'em like that any more.
The hell with Peyton Place, this is Dorothy Malone's finest hour. She gets Canuck-cred for being in an episode of "The Littlest Hobo" too.
Totally fell in love with Dorothy Malone from this scene
I also, I thought she was the best looking women in the movie, wish she had a bigger role in the film.
These two book store scenes especially the second one with Dorothy Malone, the latter teasing the production code at the time, are among my favorite moments in the film & Bogart has a fine time playing both of them it seems.
What is the code? Where can it be found?
Wow, look at those cars!
Is that a bottle of rye in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
These Warner Bros pictures always have a unique look and sound. Unmistakable.
Marlowe's questions about those rare books, with very specific misprints ("third edition with a duplicated line on p.116") sound like an in-joke between book collectors. Books aren't like rare stamps in that way; a special misprint or typo on a page doesn't make them into special collectibles. :) Wonderful film, a real classic.
Not to mention that "Ben-Hur" wasn't published until 1880.
@@Rozsaphile Incidentally, there was a scam Ponzi scheme in France some years ago where a man, assisted by two antiquarian book sellers, talked up the value of some supposedly rare manuscripts by the Marquise de Sade (a wayward classic with some parts of the French literate public) and goaded people into paying serious money to own shares in these manuscripts, then urging them to find a new tier of customers so they could get paid by them for owning further small parts of those notebooks or whatever...This is a real "only in France" thing. 😀
Noirs are true INTIMITE Conversations, and it is best to hold them at night - preferably during rainy nights! ... Oh, they are also best - mighty best! - in Black & White, so to allow us to color their shades and tones with the 'Colors' of our feelings!
The characters name is Agnes and she is the coolest character in this great classic
The ‘studio’ rain always puts my in mind of Bladerunner.

This is one of my favorite scenes in cinema! Bogart is great but she's perfection!
Pretty, bookish girl. Hope he got more than a book marker. 😘😘😘😘
Geiger's "shadow," Lundgren, was his live-in boy toy in the book.
I used to watch these movies as a kid
Now you watch them as an old man.
It's a really good book by Raymond Chandler. Probably his best.
This scene is the best argument for small, independent bookstores.
that final line? so hilarious. (I mean, the whole thing is great but)
Hope we can have the whole film. Saw the robert mitchum version but nothing bet the bogie original
Yikes! He left fingerprints on everything in Geiger's house!
Hmm I wonder what they're suggesting went on in that bookstore that we werent privy to during this little episode. They should have shown him doing up his tie. Never would have got past the sensors! I've have seen this film 20 times, conservative estimate. Just ask my wife!😊
Don’t try to figure out the plot of this film based on this entire clip. You never will. It’s incomprehensible - but very enjoyable and worth watching regardless.
These women are gorgeous lol.
l loved Dorothy Malone's part in the film, I liked her better as a brunette as she went blond in many of her later films.
😂😂😂 I love it this is my first time seeing this but I love to dialect when he slapped in the face and said lady on there and be quiet oh my God later and be quiet
Wish this was in English
Please take some writing lessons...please, please, please...
Bogart was party size
Dorothy was some babe in her youth.
My absolute favorite Bogie movie.
ACME?!?!?

"Acme" was a popular real-world name for businesses and products in 20th-century America -- it means "highest point, peak, summit" etc. Chuck Jones had tongue firmly in cheek when he adopted it as the name for the business that foisted invariably disastrous products on Wyle E. Coyote...
Acme was a common name for businesses back then. Like Apex.
No products for Wile E. Coyote were sold at this bookstore, however.
I was surprised that Sonia Darrin wasn't in the credits.
There was some kind of falling-out with her and the studio and while they couldn’t remove her from the movie, they didn’t credit her or employ her again. Meanwhile she’s one of the best parts of this film.
I have some rye in my pocket as well!
Great film.
Movies like this are no longer allowed.
They didnt shower after drinks and things. lol
Hollywood at its best..
Who plays the Geiger bookstore assistant?
Sonia Darrin.
@@azohundred1353 Thanks!
So long,Pal
Bogey, the G.O.A.T. The reason I became a P.I.
This kind of thing has never happened to me with the dames. Say, what gives? Maybe I need to start carrying a flask of rye, and develop a manner of speaking like Bogie. Shay shweetheart.
Classic
Robert Michum did a good in job......his should of longer. Robert
She reminds me of mak. Just vaguely if you squint real hard
Awful lot of good looking dames in those book stores!
like hearing the main theme of one movement of a concerto , this sucks.......give us the movie ,
I will always be on the side of Moses ...I do not choose this ...choice made for me ...less Vincent, more Holy Trinity 😍
Only in the movies 19 year girls fall for middle age men.
They do in real life...if the man has plenty of money.
Miss Bacall Mrs. Bogart same age.
