The Walrus will be busting out a rare double feature tonight of Moonlight followed by this, to hopefully act as a compensatory-pick-me-up. We'll see how it goes, this film's style is definitely my jam.

Moonlight hollowed me out and made me feel real, human emotions again, but for some reason I was expecting a tragedy. I thought I'd need consolation. Instead I just slept on a perfectly made drama for no reason. This movie though, this movie was a fun little blast. The two detectives, while distinct, you get the feeling would have made for a better merged character than a duo. Still, for a half-century-old film the humor lands very well and the gags teased out a few mirthful chuckles from a tired and inebriated Walrus. Like the OP said, one of the strengths of this movie is that it's a little slice of NY history. The places and the people who lovingly made this film are on fine display here, it's a cultural experience that most movies shy away from, but this one embraces it's identity loud and proud. Whatever a "Chili Woman" was, food or whatever, I need one in my life right now.
