The Christmas morning scene is the best. And don’t forget to notice that Asta sticks his hand in the door, sees Nick shooting balloons on the tree, and turns around and leaves. #TheThinMan is the apotheosis of quick reaction cuts. #TCMParty

Nora’s unintended jokes in the bedroom scene and the perfect quick cuts to Nick’s amused reactions. #TheThinMan #TCMParty

Hey, is the guy interested in “the little brunette” Dorothy at the Christmas Eve party the same guy she brings to the dinner party reveal?!?! And I’ve only noticed that now? #TheThinMan #TCMParty

It cracks me up that Nick takes Mimi into the bathroom to talk, and she raises her nose at it. #TheThinMan #TCMParty

Behind on #TheThinMan watching the cocktail party scene. So interesting that Nick & Nora didn’t hire help for the party. Obvi it’s a script device—have the main characters interact with the guests while serving—but I like to think it says they enjoy that interaction. #TCMParty

“Hey, what is the score anyway?”
Best entrance and a fav scenes in The Thin Man.

„The problem with getting two and two together is that sometimes you get four, and sometimes you get twenty-two.“

A late West Coast viewing tip: so I remembered #TheThinMan is a Christmas movie, but #AfterTheThinMan is a #NewYearsEve movie set in San Francisco. So watching that (via HBO Max and elsewhere) with cocktails is a FINE way to send out the year. Best of 2023 to you all.

Good lord, still more than THREE HOURS to midnight! NYE is interminable. Thank god for #TheThinMan #TCMParty

"When we did a scene together, we forgot about technique, camera angles, and microphones. We weren't acting. We were just two people in perfect harmony" - Powell on Myrna Loy

As I’ve mentioned before, “dirty little rat Nunheim” is a regular term of endearment in my household. #TheThinMan #TCMParty

Myrna Loy was never nominated for an Oscar award? It's a crazy world. #TheThinMan #TCMParty

1934 was such a civilized time compared to today. #TheThinMan #TCMParty

The Sullivan Act was a gun control and dangerous weapons law in 1911 in New York City — you needed a license to possess a handgun that was small enough to be concealed.
