After the Thin Man is a 1936 American film, starring William Powell, Myrna Loy, and James Stewart, that is the sequel to the film The Thin Man. The movie presents Powell and Loy as Dashiell Hammett''s characters Nick and Nora Charles. The film was directed by W. S. Van Dyke and also featured Elissa Landi, Joseph Calleia, Jessie Ralph, Alan Marshall, and Penny Singleton. Nick and Nora Charles return from vacation to their home in San Francisco on New Year''s Eve, where Nora''s stuffy family expect the couple to join them for a formal dinner. Nick is despised by Nora''s Aunt Katherine, as his immigrant heritage and experience as a "flat foot" are considered below Nora. The true reason for their invitation is that Nora''s cousin Selma''s ne''er-do-well husband Robert has been missing. Nick is coerced into a little quiet detective work for the family. They easily find Robert at a Chinese nightclub, where he''s been conducting an affair with Polly, the star performer. Robert tries to extort money from Selma''s unrequited love, David Graham: $25,000 and Robert will leave Selma alone permanently.
