  • Two superb performances, one fine film

    The guy we think of as friendly, not-too-bright Fred MacMurray becomes a villain Bogart would strain to equal as a cocky, amoral insurance salesman who gets in over his head with calculating femme fatale Barbara Stanwyck, and finds everything coming apart as he tries to untangle himself from a murder. Stanwyck is sometimes brilliant; Edward G. Robinson, as MacMurray's suspicious colleague, is unforgettable throughout. Not many 70-year-old films can keep me on the edge of my seat, but Double Indemnity had me teetering from the brilliant first shots to the finale. If this didn't win an Oscar for cinematography, it should have.

  • One of the best

    Has to be one one the best written and acted films off all times. Clever and witty. Freddy Mac and E.G.R. play off each other to the fineist. Must see film viewing.

  • One of the all time greats

    Solid noir film, but I just didn't like the casting. Bogart and and any number of leading ladies of the time would have made this one phenomenal. MacMurray just wasn't believable, at least to me.

  • SUSPENSE!
