The last of the series is one of

The last of the series is one of the better of the six. Wynn overacts a bit, but it was fun seeing Dean Stockwell as a child. Asta the dog is still a sweet touch.

Nick and Nora are aboard the gambling ship

Nick and Nora are aboard the gambling ship S. S. Fortune as part of a charity shindig, which features a show of jazz musicians. Tommy Drake is one musician who is ready to leave his employer at the ship to take a more lucrative tour-but the problem is that he also owes money to a group of gangsters aboard that ship, who give him until closing time to pay the money back. Begging a businessman for money, he is turned down-and is shot dead when he tries to get money out of a safe. Also, a rich man's daughter is eloping with one of the other musicians, to the father's disapproval. The newly-married couple arrive the next day at Nick and Nora's home, as the husband, who fought with the now-murdered musician, is being sought by the police. Nick and Nora deliberately turn him in, though they believe him innocent, for his own safety, and investigate who the real murderer might be. It seems that Tommy Drake had quite a few other enemies... This is the last movie in the Powell/Loy series; a lot of water had passed under the bridge and Powell was getting old for the part. There was also the joke about the couple's boy Nicky being older and somewhat naughtier now, as well as the idea of the couple being hopelessly square compared to all the hipster jazz musicians and their hipster slang. The story is convoluted too, and you don't get enough clues until the end. Worst is the idea of a jazz musician going insane and somehow being brought to normal for the final "gathering" scene on the reopened gambling ship. Not all that bad, but it is just as well they stopped the series at this point.

Song of the Thin Man is a solid

Song of the Thin Man is a solid conclusion to the Thin Man series. I am impressed with how consistently good these films are. I guess that’s a testament to the onscreen chemistry between William Powell and Myrna Loy. I was also delighted to see Dean Stockwell playing the part of Nick Jr. Maybe I was just too tired while watching this, but the murder mystery aspect feels a little muddled. I had a hard time following what was going on. Nevertheless, I enjoyed watching Nick and Nora take another shot at solving the crime, and I’m a little sad that Song of the Thin Man is the final film of the franchise.
