The Long Goodbye (1973) reimagines the classic noir detective Philip Marlowe, as portrayed by Elliot Gould, in a way that both honors and subverts the genre's conventions. Set against the backdrop of a disillusioned 1970s Los Angeles, the film explores themes of loyalty and betrayal within a murky plot where everyone seems to be lying. Throughout the discussion, the hosts dive into the film's unique cinematography by Vilmos Zsigmond and its rich character dynamics, highlighting how Altman's direction creates a sense of constant movement and intrigue.
