Description
[Machine Translation] America, 1928. Dashiell Hammett, a detective writer... The scent of gunpowder smoke and roses haunts him. A hard-boiled mystery that will pierce a man's heart! This is the first Blu-ray release in Japan. Joe Gores' mystery novel featuring Dashiell Hammett (1894-1961), a hard-boiled detective writer famous for detective novels such as "The Maltese Falcon" and "Harvest of Blood," has been adapted to film by Wim Wenders of "Pina Bausch: The Life That Keeps Dancing" and "Paris, Texas" fame. The film is set in San Francisco in 1928. The story takes place in San Francisco in 1928. Hammett, a retired private detective, becomes involved in the disappearance of a Chinese girl. Francis Ford Coppola is the executive producer, Ross Thomas, winner of the Detective Writers Club of America Award, wrote the screenplay, Joseph Bailock, who worked on many of Samuel Fuller's and Robert Aldrich's films, was in charge of the photography, and John Barry, known for his work on "007," composed the music. The film is the first film by German director Wenders. This was the German director Wenders' first foray into Hollywood, and he was very enthusiastic about the film. However, the filming was halted due to clashes with Coppola and other problems, and it took seven years to complete the film. The chaotic situation led to the film's beautiful and mysterious tone, which is unique. The film pays homage to Wenders' pessimistic American films. Frederic Forrest (One from the Heart, Apocalypse in Hell) plays the lead role of Hammett. Peter Boyle (Young Frankenstein, Taxi Driver) plays Ryan, a former colleague who becomes the client of the case. Elisha Cook Jr., who also appeared in John Huston's "The Maltese Falcon," and Sylvia Sidney, the legendary actress known for her roles in Fritz Lang and Hitchcock films in the 1930s, leave a strong impression.
