Double Indemnity
PFS018

Directed by Billy Wilder
Written by Billy Wilder and Raymond Chandler
Based on a Novel by James M. Cain

In this quintessential noir from one of Hollywood's finest directors, an insurance representative is seduced by a dissatisfied housewife into a scheme of insurance fraud and murder that arouses the suspicion of his colleague, a claims investigator. Billy Wilder's acid-tipped noir is one of the finest examples of the genre and has earned spots on the American Film Institute's 100 Years ... 100 Movies list and the British Film Institute's Sight and Sound 250 Greatest Films of All Time list.
