Based on Dashiell Hammett’s “The Farewell Murder”

The first movie in this series was based on a book with the same name as the movie “The Thin Man,” Which referred to the murder victim, not the detective. This movie, instead of just basing it on the same story or making something up to keep the characters going, is based on another writing by Dashiell Hammett. “The Farewell Murder” (1930) was written as part of a short story series, “The Continental Op (Vintage Crime)”. The promotional title of this movie is “Return of the Thin Man.” Nick (William Powell) and Nora (Myrna Loy) are invited to visit an old partner of Nora’s father. He is Col. MacFay (C. Aubrey Smith), and he is being threatened, more like blackmailed. You guessed it. Despite all precautions, the Colonel is a dead chicken. Who did it? Aside from all the standard creepy suspects, now Nick and Nora have a little one to add to some of the comic relief and even suspense.
