In barbed zinger after zinger, the man who gave us private investigator Philip Marlowe described Hollywood as a cauldron of “egos,” “credit stealing” and “self-promotion” where scribes were ruthlessly neglected, marginalized and stripped of respect toiling at the mercy of producers, some of whom, he wrote, had “the artistic integrity of slot machines and the manners of a floorwalker with delusions of grandeur.” But showmen make nothing they exploit what someone else has made,” he wrote in an acerbic essay published in the Atlantic. In 1945, barely two years into Raymond Chandler’s career as a screenwriter, the man whose hard-boiled fiction did much to make film noir into an art form had already wearied of the town and its treatment of writers. ![]() ![]() ~~ Adapted from the manhwa "Bride of the Water God" (하백의 신부) by Yoon Mi Kyung (윤미경).
