RE: RARA-AVIS: The Drowning Pool: Lynskey

From: Ed Lynskey:

BTW, does the Paul Newman movie, THE DROWNING POOL, parallel any of the novel's plot?

Yes.

Is it worth a look?

Yes, though it's disappointing to me, much as HARPER was. Newman plays Archer/Harper as an oaf.

But, then, THE BLUE HAMMER may've been my favorite of the Archer novels I've read. It was also the first, which may've had some influence. TM
