The Brasher Doubloon (known in the UK as The High Window) is a 1947 black-and-white film based on the novel The High Window by Raymond Chandler. This movie is not considered as quite as good as The Big Sleep or Murder, My Sweet.[citation needed]
The Brasher Doubloon, the rare coin upon which the action turns, is a real coin.
