Elliot Gould turned 70 on 29th August, 2008. Seems a perfectly appropriate time for Picturenose to lay its cards on the table in the long-running debate as to whether Robert Altman’s anachronistic adaptation of possibly the finest hard-boiled gumshoe novel ever written lives up to the book, or lays eggs. Well, which way would you go?
