Private detective Philip Marlowe is hired by a wealthy family. Before the complex case is over, he's seen murder, blackmail--and what might be love.
A labyrinthine journey through the mind of Philip Marlowe, 'The Big Sleep' is a film noir that enthralls with its complex narrative and sharp dialogue.
