   What's so special about the Big Sleep?

   Does the Big Sleep have a 'well-told story'?

   • But it would be wrong to say that The Big Sleep doesn't have a "well-told story". As knotty as the plot may be, the labyrinthine structure isn't a defect that is balanced out by Bogie-and-Bogart's smouldering interplay. On the contrary, the fact that your mind has to race to keep up with Marlowe's is a major part of the film's appeal.
