Philip Carey, 34, has a hard-eyed face and a big (6 ft. 4 in., 207 lbs. ) frame that lend Philip Marlowe the look of a man who has been around. These days Raymond Chandler's Eye seldom travels from L.A., but like his original, Carey maintains the air of an adventurer, a man who might take one drink too many and wind up m Singapore with a full beard.
