Friends, had the chance after work this evening to take it a little easy and catch Liam Neeson in Neil Jordan's Marlowe. Not a perfect film to be sure but quite entertaining - thanks in no small part to the very solid performances by Neeson as well as the likes of Danny Huston, Colm Meaney, and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje to name a few! #ilovemovies #neonoir #raymondchandler #popculture #theatre https://www.instagram.com/p/Cphjnvwu85x/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

As much as I love classic detective fiction, and as much as I love the Bogart/Bacall film adaptation, I think this is my first time reading this book. I loved it, and I don’t think I have much else to say about it this morning. #thismakesmehappy #books #2023reading #bookstagram #bigsleep #phillipmarlowe #raymondchandler #blacklizardcrime https://www.instagram.com/p/CpDaX10Jv4D/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

ALBUM OF THE MONTH—SNAPSHOTS https://johnnyjblairsingeratlarge.bandcamp.com/album/snapshots-live-half-plugged-expanded-reissue  ...Cappuccino and novel reading fueled SNAPSHOTS, an album of songs extracted from my appearances on TV shows as well as concerts and the studio. I released this album in 2003 when I earned the tag "The Tasmanian Devil of the coffee house set." Part of my audience wanted a raw, acoustic album. Hence SNAPSHOTS—a mix of blues, California pop, roots rock’n’roll, and gospel standards ("Workin' on a Building”). Live cuts include energetic covers of Patti Smith’s "Dancing Barefoot" and a Staples Singers-styled remake of "For What it's Worth” (Buffalo Springfield) performed on slide 12-string guitar.

Writers are outsourced in the Beatle-esque "Unresolved (Graham Greene's Script for Laurel and Hardy)" and "Desert Ruby" is a semi-autobiographical "Los Angeles allegory," with images from The Bible and Raymond Chandler. SNAPSHOTS also has 2 of my personal favorites, The Beach Boys-influenced “Like a Father a Son” and "Steinbeck Found the Valley"—an instrumental with accordion, cellos, piano, and trombones by Richard Marriott. 

Please enjoy this collection of audio snapshots of my life:

The Pale Shore

“I slipped on my sunglasses and headed down the stairs, the heavy weight of the afternoon heat hanging over me like a shroud. The Gulf Wind Motel loomed behind me, a crumbling monument to forgotten lives and half-buried sins. Somewhere in the maze of this seedy stretch of coastline, Joe Crowder had made a mistake, and now it was up to me to figure out what that mistake was—before it caught up with me too.”

#RaymondChandlers Los Angeles 1930s

[celluloidandthecity]

‘There was a desert wind blowing that night. It was one of those hot dry Santa Anas that come down through the mountain passes and curl your hair and make your nerves jump and your skin itch. On nights like that every booze party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the edge of the carving knife and study their husbands’ necks. Anything can happen. You can even get a full glass of beer at a cocktail lounge.’

I read the English version of "Long good bye" by Raymond Chandler. If you don't like spoilers, please read the Japanese version first.

Philip Marlowe, a private detective, gets drunk one day and brings home Terry Lennox, who was left in a bar by his wife. He was badly injured in the war. When he woke up, he thanked her and left, but later his wife divorced him and saved him from the hands of the cops when he was drunk and unmasked on the streets again. Terry borrowed money from Marlowe and left for Vegas to look for work, where he got back together with his wealthy ex-wife, Sylvia.

One day, Terry came to my office for a visit. He invited Marlowe for a drink at a quiet bar. They drove in Terry's luxurious car to a bar called Victor's, where Terry shared his knowledge of gimlets. They have several cocktail hours together. On the last day that Marlowe and Terry drink, they visit the bar a little early. Terry tells the story.

"I like bars just after they open for the evening. When the air inside is still cool and clean and everything is shiny and the barkeep is giving himself that last When the air inside is still cool and clean and everything is shiny and the barkeep is giving himself that last look in the mirror to see if his tie is straight and his hair is smooth."

"I like to watch the man mix the first one of the evening and put it down on a crisp mat and the little folded napkin beside it. I like to taste it slowly. The first quiet drink of the evening in a quiet bar- that's wonderful."

It's good. It was a hard-boiled bar argument. After that, there was a slight altercation and Marlowe left Terry, but Terry came to Marlowe's house again in the early morning. He comes to Marlowe's house early in the morning, shivering and carrying a gun. 。。。。。 But there was no trace of the gun having been fired. He asks her to take him to Tijuana, Mexico. From there, he says, he will take a plane and run away somewhere. His wife had been murdered in the garage. He had seen a man with his wife before that. Marlowe did him a favor.

After Terry escaped, Marlow was arrested by the police. When he was finally released, the cops told Marlowe that Terry had died, leaving behind a confession. Marlowe received a letter from Terry. Marlowe received a visit from Spencer, a novel publisher. He told her that there was a problem with her best-selling author, Roger Wade. He said that as a result of his drunkenness, he had thrown his wife Irene down the stairs, seriously injuring her with broken ribs. Then the incredibly beautiful Irene herself appeared and asked Marlowe to find her missing husband. The clue was the name "Dr. V" left by Wade.

Marlowe visits a detective agency he knows and uses their database. In Los Angeles, there were three doctors with the initial V, which had a reputation for illegally treating alcoholic patients. Marlowe goes through them in order, but Wade is nowhere to be found. However, Marlowe suspects a doctor named Bellinger. He is living in a defunct sanatorium with a crazy cowboy named Earl. Wade's wife remembered that Wade, who was also missing at the time, had been driven home by a young cowboy.

Marlowe had visited Beringer's sanatorium late at night and had found Wade there. Marlowe retrieved Wade from Bellinger and Earl's hands. But Wade is struggling with something. Linda Loring showed up at the right moment, and she was Sylvia Lennox's sister. She and her husband attend Wade's party, and her husband, Dr. Loring, warns Wade to leave his wife alone. Wade says and does some disturbing things, and eventually calls Marlowe and causes a fist-suicide. In the middle of the night, Eileen seduces Marlowe by telling him that she once had a lover, who is dead, but she still dreams about him. Eileen seduces Marlowe by telling him that she once had a lover and that he is dead but she still dreams about him. The Wades are vague about Terry, whether they know it or not.

Linda shows up at the office and brings up the subject of Terry. She said that Sylvia had other men in her life and that Wade was on the list. When Linda insisted that Wade was the killer, Marlowe asked what that had to do with you. Linda didn't answer and told Marlowe to come to her house for tea. Is Harlan Potter, the famous wealthy father, waiting for you there? Marlow asked, and Linda agreed.

Marlowe confronts Harlan Potter. Potter threatened Marlowe to withdraw from the case to protect his privacy. But Marlowe refused to give in. At the same time, Marlowe received a call from a man in New York. Marlowe received a call from a man in New York who told him that Terry was living in New York under a different name, Paul Marston. Marlowe called the police and found out that there was no record of Terry's military service at all.

Later, Marlowe was called by Wade. He was barefaced and was working on a novel. But when Marlowe questioned him about Terry's alias, he fell back into drinking. When Marlowe returned to the Wade house after a day at the lake, his wife, Irene, who had been out, came home. When he went to check on Wade, he found him dead with a gunshot wound to the head. Eileen blames Marlowe for Wade's death. However, Marlowe and Spencer, a publisher in New York who was the original client for the Wade case, visit Irene and take out a document. There was a shocking revelation: 。。。。

At first glance, the case seemed to be settled. However, Marlowe ignores the warnings of everyone involved and exposes the case to the media in order to clear Terry's name. After managing to overcome the repercussions that naturally ensue, Marlowe invites Linda Loring to join him for a glass of champagne. After various conflicts with Linda, Marlowe spends the night with her. After she leaves, Marlowe reminisces as follows

To say goodbye is to die a little.

Finally, a mysterious Mexican appears. All the mysteries are revealed, but Marlowe rejects him by uttering that famous line. Marlowe was the only one who believed in his friend's innocence and was trying to protect his honor. And yet, he just couldn't forgive the man for being a moral loser, could he?

"You bought a lot of me, Terry. For a smile and a nod and a wave of the hand and a few quiet drinks in a quiet bar here and there. It was nice while it lasted. So long, I won't say goodbye. I said it to you when it meant something. I said it when it was sad and lonely and final."

And Marlowe concluded the story with this.

"I never saw any of them again-except the cops. No way has been invented to say goodbye to them."

I have wanted to read this story in the original for many years. My dream has finally come true. After all, a masterpiece is forever a masterpiece.

ロング・グッドバイ

Pushover is a 1954 American film noir crime film directed by Richard Quine starring Fred MacMurray, Phil Carey and Kim Novak (all of 20 in her first credited role). The motion picture was adapted from two novels, The Night Watch by Thomas Walsh and Rafferty by William S. Ballinger. I hadn't seen this until recently. Okay... today. It's on the YouTube. I was hoping it was something akin to Double Indemnity. Meh. Not so much. It's okay. It's definitely film noir. The entire first scene is a bank being robbed in silence which is kind of an interesting storytelling choice. MacMurray and Carey are solid hard boiled tough guys. Novak is (as advertised on the poster ) a hot blooded blonde. I don't think the dialogue and story aren't tight as Double Indemnity. But it's hard to top Billy Wilder and Raymond Chandler when it comes to Noir.
