an interesting piece of work, telling more of the story about cultural clash between the generations through the noir setting. we have a detective, a nervous lady client, a sleazy informant and a couple of criminals. but the detective is old, deaf and ill, and seems like an old, thrashed version of noir detectives thirty years later. interesting touch.

***1/2 (out of four) A clever and fun semi-spoof of the detective/gumshoe genre with wonderfully memorable characters and a breezy script that delivers just the right amount of jokes and suspense. Lily Tomlin plays a woman who has just had her cat kidnapped for ransom. She hires old broken down deteceive Ari (Art Carney) to help get the cat back. But Ari knows that this goes much deeper than just catnapping. Carney and Tomlin are great in their award calliber performances. The film is just a great time all the way around.

Writer/director Robert Benton is someone who absolutely has my number and I'm a huge fan of everything he does, from "There Was a Crooked Man" and "Bonnie and Clyde" to "Nobody's Fool" and "Twilight" (the Paul Newman film, not the lovesick vampire movie), I love all of his films. In this one, Benton presents a charming revisionist detective film with broken down detective Art Carney being hired by kooky Lily Tomlin to find her cat. Like most old detetive stories, a simple missing person (or cat) case turns into something much more complicated. Carney and Tomlin are a terrifically mismatched pair. The supporting players are amazing. But most of all, Benton's dialogue and script are a spot on love letter to classic Hollywood detective pictures while at the same time subverting the genre tropes. This one is a must see for fans of classic Hollywood noir and/or 70s revisionist films.

I love this movie, it makes me smile, it's fun, sad, funny, Art Carney is great as the old dick. It's the kind of movie that'd never be made today, no CGI.
