Wenders makes a period piece that is a detective story in 1930s chinatown. For couple of moments the chemistry between characters sets in big time but as it seems to be case in his films it is more about how reality and stories of reality collide or do not.

Though technically this film is highly uneven--I give it five stars for purely personal reasons. I love the atmosphere, the clothes, the music, and Forrest is downright perfect as Dashiell Hammett! I know the movie is far from a masterpiece...but, dash it all (poor pun intended)..I love it!

It's a stylish, entertaining movie, starring Frederic Forrest (a dead ringer for Hammett, bar the height) as a drinking, smoking, coughing and typewriter-bashing writer lured back into detection by an old Pinkerton associate (Peter Boyle) and stumbling into the plot of The Maltese Falcon.

Wow, I picked this one up randomly from the school library, and I LOVED it.

A man in a camelhaircoat, hot and demure librarians, alcohoism, Chinatown, men in black coats and black hats, a vanished girl...these are the ingredients for this elegant and excellent, well acted detective-story. Luckily Wenders never cave in to admit a narrator from the off.
