Raymond Chandler, more than any writer before or since, has captured the poetry and paltriness that are the heart of Los Angeles, his characters move within the shadow of the Hollywood machine-tough, chauffeurs, dames and the wealthy gone bad. Haunting, flawed, and larger than life. Mr. Chandler I am in you seem to get the attention of people.
While not the full book, this is a great telling! The cast was excellent. If that is in fact Toby Stephens, as some in the comments stated, I appreciate him even more!
This right here, is the best one i have ever listened to!. BRAVO!! its jsut perfect, 100% loved it. the acting is superb, the delivery, just perfect. Great job!!

@@keiththebat1 Hes not even close. Have you ever watched a Humprey Bogart movie? Ray sounds like he isn't even interested. His pacing and tone are way off.

Toby Stephens American accent is excruciating . As for Marlowe : his relentless wise cracking and Sir Galahad moral rectitude is both tiresome and unconvincing. He s obviously Gay . Time he came out of the closet..!

Heck, no. Uploader here should _really_ have indicated in the video title that this recording is an audio drama production with full cast, music, and sound effects ... not the full audiobook. (Obviously nobody could never read the book in only ninety minutes; it's nearly 300 pages.)
First, it's not actually an audiobook (even though the video title here uses the words 'full audiobook' for some reason), it's an audio drama -- with cast and music and sound effects. Second, these kinds of productions have to condense things a lot to keep the running time at about ninety minutes. Scenes are jettisoned for time.
@@johnpurssey6880 Oh yeah the final film is an abomination, ruined by the Warner brothers interference. Out there is the original film that Hawks shot about 18 months before and it’s a lot closer to the novel. The final cut that Sam Warner forced upon Hawks has scenes filmed 18 months later when both Bacall & Bogey are noticeably older. And it entirely excises the scene with the missing Irishman’s wife. It’s a shame as the original cut is a bonafide classic. But I suppose that the final cut made more money during the mania of “bogey & bacall”…
Listened to this again and it's still a classic tale. Top marks from Scotland 🏴👍
Thanks for listening!
Hi Scotland! Seattle, Washington
These are some grade A voice actors, Thank you for bringing these classic stories back to life.
Love Chandler and Dashiel Hammet , audio is so good no need for pictures my imagination provides them ,easy with such good writing and actors.

Excellent audiobook. You have to put the names of the cast (voice actors).

Hey check your thumbnail. The title is The Big Sleep NOT the big sheep!
Are you the narrator? Great job! I’m a third through the big sleep. Great stuff.

Take it easy...

Toby Stephens American accent
is excruciating . As for Marlowe :
his relentless wise cracking and
Sir Galahad moral rectitude is both
tiresome and unconvincing.
He s obviously Gay . Time he came out of the closet..!
I agree Ed Bishop s the better of the two, although Toby Steven is no slouch in the role.
Is the thumbnail meant to say The Big Sheep?
Is this the full novel in only an hour and a half?

Audio dramatization, not audiobook.
Almost impossible story to follow
This is not a good audiobook. It misses many parts of the plot, such as the initial visit to Geiger’s book store.
