We don’t know why a detective for hire is called a private dick, but we’ve certainly seen plenty of sexy investigators this week. We have watched the new Ethan Coen 'lesbian B-movie' Honey Don’t, starring Margaret Qualley and Aubrey Plaza, and we’re comparing it to Howard Hawks’ 1946 film noir that it tips its hat to, The Big Sleep with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. Two gumshoes, two sets of murders, two seductive mysteries and two steamy romances. But which of these do we consider the most sexually charged film of all time? Which film is fifteen minutes too long, and which is fifteen minutes too short? Which film is 70% of the way there? Which film is hoping to flip your expectations? What did The Big Sleep change when compared to Raymond Chandler’s original book? And who did we leave the cinema wishing we were?
Plus a video game made for four hands, some long scenes from Spielberg, a journey through the labyrinth of immigration, a trip to France with the Cliche Squad, and one of the greatest screen writing teams of all time. Just remember, we’re not enjoying watching these sex scenes. It’s our job.
