Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid
1982
***½
Director: Carl Reiner
Cast: Steve Martin, Rachel Ward, Carl Reiner, Reni Santoni, George Gaynes
An inventive and brilliantly made film noir spoof which smoothly mixes clips from old Hollywood films with Humphrey Bogart et al with the new footage featuring Steve Martin. The story itself is not as strong as one would hope for.
