The Maltese Falcon was a really really bad movie. But the long goodbye is probably the best noir detective movie ever made. I have really wanted to read it ever since I saw the film but haven't gotten around to it yet.

It's redeeming feature is that it is only an hour and 45 minutes. Couldn't stand it. TBF I am not a big fan of those noir films anyway. I much prefer movies like the long goodbye that almost parody the genre and end up being great. I haven't watched murder my dear but I hate that they changed the name from farewell my lovely which is clearly the superior name.
