Complex story
The story of the film is particularly complex in such a way that director Howard Hawks to one of the scriptwriters sooner or chauffeur Owen Taylor had been murdered or had committed suicide. Screenwriter Faulkner admitted he knew it and decided not to contact with Raymond Chandler, the author of the book. Chandler knew it either.

The complexity of the film is also because certain things have been omitted from the book of the film, so the story is less well understood. For example, no mention in the film of homosexual gang members and clandestine porn industry.
