*********************Mild Spoilers Ahead*******************************
Another Thin Man is an urbane, witty murder mystery comedy...and it works on all levels.
Nick Charles is a well known sleuth. Nick and his wife, Nora, have a new baby and a dog named Asta. They are called out to a Long Island country estate by an old family friend of Nora's who fears a former business associate is going to murder him.
A disappearing body along the roadside is an ominous beginning to their weekend in the country. The plot begins to thicken when their host is murdered and the suspects are many. This is a good who done it with plenty of humor along the way.
William Powell and Myrna Loy are terrific as the sleuthing couple who seldom allow a chance at sarcasm to pass them by. This movie will keep you guessing until the very end who killed the colonel and why. Numerous twists and turns keep things interesting and the direction by W.S. VanDyke is crisp.
Old movie buffs will recognize Marjorie Main from Ma and Pa Kettle and Shemp Howard from The Three Stooges in bit parts.
It's worth your time. 89/100.
