Marlowe Film Trailer

I read all of Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe crime fiction novels when I was a teenager and later watched the movies based on the books with various stars (Humphrey Bogart, Robert Mitchum, Elliott Gould, and James Garner) playing Marlowe. A friend silkscreened a t-shirt for me with an image of Marlowe wearing a fedora and smoking a cigarette, captioned 'Not peculiar, just uninhibited'.  In a new film directed by Neil Jordan, Liam Neeson plays the hardboiled detective and Jessica Lange is his co-star. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
