MARLOWE (Paul Bogart, 1969)



This 1969 film adaption of Raymond Chandler's 1949 detective novel "The Little Sister" is definitely a "B" picture, and mostly I didn't really know what the hell was going on or why anybody was doing what they did, but it was generally groovy and I had great time. Some highlights include a great scene where Bruce Lee trashes James Garner's office using his karate skills, a fabulous catfight between two sisters, and a great scene where Garner assists a stripper (Rita Moreno)
with her routine from the side of stage while interrogating her about "what really went down" the whole time.

Highly recommended for those in need of groovy, low-brow entertainment.
