not that I think it's possible to make a film of this book, but an adaption that is 500% closer to the source material than the version we got would be a start.
FEAR & LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS
same issue. Depp is too much of a clown in this, as Bale was too much of a clown in AP
in both books these characters came off as resolutely deadpan and serious to me, despite the general absurdity and madness of the stories

What Was That Film? / Re: Film Noir Set in Los Angel...
Last post by DrParker - December 26, 2025, 10:33:53 PMHi. Thank you both for responding. I don't think these movies are what I am looking for. I started watching "Counterspy Meets Scotland Yard" and this wasn't what I remembered. The IMDB description to "Counterspy" does not match either. These seem more WWII espionage movies, rather than "Film Noir".
To further elaborate, I remember watching the movie maybe, like 12 years ago on TCM. I don't remember the actors. It was definitely set in California, and definitely involved a British Detective (maybe London Police?) or a member of Scotland Yard looking for a British murderer who escaped to L.A. or San Francisco. In the end, it turns out the British man is the criminal and killed the detective/Scotland Yard man and poses as him to get to California. There was definitely a murder victim's body found in an office closet or wall panel in this movie.
Again, thank you both for responding. Hopefully, one day, TCM will play it again.

Neither the 1925 version nor the 1960 version actually adapt the novel.
The 90's TV movie did, but it felt underwhelming.
Island At the Top of the World
Story was right. FX were not. Disney would probably mess up the story today.
The Land Time Forgot
Decent version of the story. Bad FX.
John Carter of Mars
Good FX. Bad version of the story.
