August 1946. Humphrey Bogart in the best (if not the most faithful) adaptation of Raymond Chandler’s THE BIG SLEEP, directed by Howard Hawks from a script by William Faulkner (yes, that one), Leigh Brackett (ditto), and Jules Furthman.

[Image ID: Three animated GIFs from THE BIG SLEEP, showing Philip Marlowe (Bogart) tied up on the floor of a house in Rialito with Vivian Rutledge (Bacall) crouched next to him. In the first GIF, Marlowe, who has a cigarette in his mouth, asks Vivian, “Take this thing out of my mouth, will ya?” She does. In the second GIF, she leans in and kisses him, wrapping her arm around his neck. In the third GIF, she sits up, though with her hand still resting on his back. He says, “Ah, that’s better.”]
