In it's favour It's shot by Michael Curtiz who at least wants to try and make it visually interesting, has got Mary Astor hanging around and has a few ideas of what was special about William Powell and Eugene Pallette.

The transitions are fun, and there's a great and creative sequence toward the end that uses some shots that reminded me of the cinematography I enjoy from the 70s.Ah mais ça c'était une maudite belle surprise.

Delafield's dog then wandered in, attracted by the commotion, and attacked the murderer. Black hardcover has wear; mostly binding and to edge is worn (see photos). Final thought: For a movie, that is 87 years old.....this one is pretty good.Ranked 41st of 78 movies on our UMR William Powell Movie Ranking Page.

Not nearly enough dogs though.Before William Powell played the famous detective in the Thin Man movies, he was well known for playing the detective Philo Vance. When Philo Vance's dog does not make it into the final of the Long Island Kennel Club's There is no shortage of suspects; Coe was very much disliked. He's a bit of a prick: he was looking forward to beating Sir Thomas MacDonald's (Paul Cavanagh) pooch at the show, he's got a kept woman (Helen Vinson), a collection of priceless Chinese vases, and a massive chip on his shoulder. Too dazed to recall the fight or realize that he was mortally wounded, he went upstairs to his bedroom and opened his window before dying. Philo Vance, accompanied by his prize-losing Scottish terrier, investigates the locked-room murder of a prominent and much-hated collector whose broken Chinese vase provides an important clue.The scene where William Powell reconstructed the murder was so novel for its time that for a minute I forgot he was just as swell with dogs as he was with murder cases and impeccably smooth monologues.

It’s just me? As soon as it settles into a fantastic William Powell-Eugene Pallette double act though, it's all gold - 76 minutes of furious deducing, twisty accusations and cute dogs.All of the best murder-mystery tropes are on display here - the apparent suicide, the impossible killing in a locked room, the bonus corpse tumbling out of a cupboard... and, of course, the crime that can only be solved by dogs. Coe awakened soon after. When Wrede instinctively reaches for the poker to strike his rival, the Doberman recognizes its attacker and leaps on him. Take Archer Coe (Robert Barrat).

Whatever you say.Until, that is, the last 3 minutes when it turns into batshit over-the-top torture confession session that I half expected “Stuck in the Middle With You” to pop up. All time and space is compressed with whip pans. The gun is still in his hand, and he’s been shot in the temple.
