Double Indemnity

Raymond Chandler adapted James M. Cain's masterpiece to create a perfect screenplay. The story remains the same in both book and movie. Why would a man with a good job and no police record allow himself to be drawn into a conspiracy to commit murder? Only money or a woman could do it, and in this case we have both. Sorry, America, take a look at yourself in the mirror. And remember to buy this classic film from Patrick's Film Noir Store.
