The Thin Man

In 1934, William Powell and Myrna Loy created the roles of Nick and Nora Charles in “The Thin Man,” based on a novel by Dasheill Hammett. There would be five more movies, at least two of which were reprised by the original actors for Lux Radio Theatre.

The audio above is the Lux adaptation of “The Thin Man,” which aired June 8, 1936, and was their 84th screenplay adaptation. You can download others here.

Lux Radio Theatre used original actors whenever possible, in order to present fairly faithful one-hour radio adaptations of screenplays.
