Today is the 50th anniversary of Raymond Chandler's death. It is hard to think of a character less Chandleresque than Phillip Marlowe's creator. Here is a set of trailers from movies made of Chandler's work-- I've seen most, but not all. I like Dick Powell's Marlowe, and Elliott Gould's, just about as much as Bogey's, maybe more. I'd be interested in seeing James Garner's "Marlow"-- based on "The Little Sister", but Netflix doesn't seem to have it.
