The Thin Man
1934
OK, I've seen this at least six times, but I still didn't remember who the killer is--does anyone remember who the killer is? Does anyone care? Does anything matter more than wanting to grow up to be Nick and Nora, even if we're already ostensibly grown up?
It all comes back to Hamlet moment: on the train at the end, Nick bids the newlyweds good-night with "and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest."

Now that you mention it, I don't remember the murderer either, though I do remember the revelation scene.
Right! How the killer is revealed is unforgettable--and a lot more important than who the killer is revelaed to be!
