Double Indemnity (1944)


"I wonder if I know what you mean."
"I wonder if you wonder
." - Double Indemnity


My first foray into the "Film Noir" genre and I was pleasantly surprised.
A sexy yet dark study on human behaviour through the use of interesting characters with great lines! The dialogue was fast paced (definitely a product of the time) - I just adored it.

I liked the dark lighting and the shadowing of this film and can understand why it is so influential.
