Five novels, all of them made into films, some several times. I never saw The "Red Harvest", have seen the other 4. Though I understand there were two makes of "The Maltese Falcon" before Bogy did it, never saw them either.
Wonder if I could come up with recordings of those Radio Shows you mentioned? They would be fun to hear.
As I said I am rereading his novels right now, and have a book of his short stories to read when I finish them. Finished The Red Harvest last night and started on The Dain Curse today. Many hours of fun there.

Ask Dashiell Hammett, been rereading his novels. Did people actually talk like that back then?
