To me this is the best film ever made. Snappy diolauge. McMurry, Stanwyck, and Robinson are all outstanding. With a quick pace and wit the film moves forward. It is a treat to watch. I find something new each time I watch. A most see for film fans

"Double Indemnity" is a movie I cannot believe I haven't seen earlier: it needs to be counted among the best films ever created, in my humble opinion. The film's single flaw may lie in the way the romance was built up, which may appear to be rather abrupt at certain points of the movie, and I wouldn't even count that as a flaw, because as the story flows along, you will realize that every single moment of the dialogues, the movements, the actions makes total sense. And the film itself? It's absolutely brilliant. Perfection at its greatest level, an execution so sharp and thrilling and compelling that it will knock you off your feet, to speak openly. Barbara Stanwyck gives a flawless performance as the scheming Phyllis Dietrichson, accompanied by Fred MacMurray who may be the weaker actor of the pair, but has enough charisma to pull off working alongside someone like Stanwyck. Edward G. Robinson and Jean Heather do a great job in the supporting cast as well. There is nothing to complain about in this film; if every film-noir movie was like this, I would rush out to watch every single film ever created in this genre. For now and the future, "Double Indemnity" remains one of the best film-noirs I have ever seen, probably alongside the likes of "Sunset Boulevard" and "The Third Man" (both of which are movies I can only urge you to check out if you haven't seen them already).

Walter Neff arrives at the home of The Dietrichson family, to sell insurance. While the husband absent he gets acquainted with Phyllis, the unhappily married second wife of Dietrichson. Being an insurance Salesman Neff knows the ins and outs, in particular how to commit the perfect murder. The pair hatch a plan, but Neff's colleague Barton Keyes starts to unravel the complex plan Walter and Phyllis concocted.I love the film noir genre, there were some superb offerings, there's a strong case for naming Double Indemnity as the best of the lot. Firstly the story itself, so wonderfully complex, loaded with twists and turns. Secondly the acting, so strong, Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwyck are superb as the film's leads. I particularly love the way that Walter narrates the story, an original format, getting it from his point of view. First time viewers are in for a treat, and will have zero idea of what the conclusion will be. Even now it looks so slick, excellent production values throughout, quite simply this film is exceptional. 10/10

There is no such thing called a perfect murder. The movie is based on a real story, and this story had been base for so many similar films.The movie begins with the confession of the hero. He has killed a man, as per the idea of his wife. The hero is an insurance agent and he knows the best to claim the policy in double; know as "Double Indemnity". It was a well planned and executed murder. They were able to convince most of the people. But, there is no such thing called a perfect murder.A very thrilling crime drama. Well directed, and perfect in all areas.Listed among the best movies. It was nominated for 7 Oscar, but won none.Do not miss this classic. Highly Recommended!#KiduMovie
