I've yet to see any of the wonderful movies in the Thin Man series in 35mm, but that changes this week thanks to the Paramount Theatre's Summer Film Series. Tuesday and Wednesday, Austinites can see a double bill of Another Thin Man and The Thin Man Goes Home, the third and fifth pictures in the 6-title franchise.

Notable landmarks in the series include the introduction of baby Nicky Jr. in Another, and the late-WWII setting of Goes Home, which was released in January of '45. The movie that came between these two, Shadow of the Thin Man, is notable for its release coming just two weeks before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Also, the previously ultra-rich Charles family transplants from a mansion to an apartment to better reflect the populace at the time, all of whom were cutting back.

It's rare to see lots of the movies the Paramount Theatre is showing this summer on the big screen, but especially these classic Warner mystery/comedies. Show times and days are listed below.

Another Thin Man 7 Tues; 9:10 Wed.
The Thin Man Goes Home 9:15 Tues; 7 Wed.
