An annual holiday tradition unlike any other, Bekah’s Cozy Christmas Double is back for a third year! And this time, she’s picked the dynamic duo of The Thin Man and After The Thin Man!

The Thin Man: Retired detective Nick Charles (William Powell) and his quick-witted, glamorous wife Nora (Myrna Loy) return to New York for the holidays, only to get swept into a murder investigation involving a missing inventor, a nervous family, and a trail of clues that only Nick’s reluctant brilliance can untangle. Their martini-fueled banter and impeccable chemistry turn a standard whodunit into one of the era’s most sparkling comedies.

After The Thin Man: Picking up right where the first film ends, Nick and Nora return to San Francisco, where a family dinner quickly spirals into another murder case—this time involving Nora’s unstable cousin, her missing husband, and a lovesick third party played by a young James Stewart. Once again, Nick reluctantly takes the case, and once again Nora dives in with enthusiasm, cocktails in hand.

Seen together, these films showcase the rare magic of screen icons William Powell and Myrna Loy: two actors whose charm mixed so well with soft cynicism. Their style defined a whole era of sophisticated studio comedies and shaped the DNA of the modern mystery-romance, proving that a detective story could be as much about love as it is about clues.
