Production
This Thin Man movie differs in several respects from the others in the series. It was one of two films in the series not directed by W.S. Van Dyke, who died in 1943, and the script was one of two not written by the husband and wife team of Albert Hackett and Frances Goodrich who had worked with Dashiell Hammett to develop the Nick and Nora characters earlier in the series.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“Constant revolutionizing of production ... distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“... if the production of any commodity necessitates the sacrifice of human life, society should do without that commodity, but it can not do without that life.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“The society based on production is only productive, not creative.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
