A Timeless Classic

Would you listen to Audio Archive Presents Dashiell Hammett's 'The Thin Man' again? Why?

No, too hard to hear without plugging into a stereo to boost volume.

What other book might you compare Audio Archive Presents Dashiell Hammett's 'The Thin Man' to and why?

no

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Yes. But why is the introductory background narration so loud and clear while the actual story is so poor in volume level?

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Yes, when Nick rounds them all up for a dinner which reveals the murderer.

Any additional comments?

The volume on these audible books is pathetic on my Kindle! Without an ear piece, it can barely be heard.

Love OTR & Lux! full cast dramatization

With stars like William Powell & Myra Loy recreating their on screen roles for a Lux Radio Show, what is not to love? :)

almost as good as the movie

our favorite Christmas season movie, stilll good as radio and worth listening to for solving.

Ummm, best audio book ever!

A classic Nick and Nora who done it. Very close to the movie with the same actors. Almost like I was watching the movie. Makes me feel right at home no matter where I am.

Great radio presentation.

I liked the fact that it was a full-cast performance (music, too), and that the veteran actors from the movies, who did a great job. There were also very few announcements, so it was more immersive, like a reading. There is a lot of background information before and after the performance, which the listener may or may not enjoy.
