Movie #245 The Big Sleep *1946*

Here are my 3 Reasons for The Big Sleep:

Reason #1.  It's Bogey and Bacall, need I say more?

Reason #2. It is another great Raymond Chandler / Phillip Marlowe story brought to the big screen.

Reason #3. Howard Hawks dialogue in the first 10 minutes between Bogey and Charles Waldron.

I give The Big Sleep ★★★1/2.
