Maybe you and I were dueling it out for the one copy! This is honestly one of the best movies I've seen and, after having this as your first noir experience, I can understand how everything else just doesn't feel right. There's something about Double Indemnity that can appeal to fans of many different genres. Haha. Maybe you and I were dueling it out for the one copy!

I was shocked to discover that I loved the whole thing from start to finish. What’s more, I didn’t think I cared for the Noir genre until I watched Double Indemnity. I loved the rapid-fire, edgy, entendre between MacMurray and Stanwyck and the way they dared each other the whole time to admit they were attracted to each other. I rented some more Noir films to satisfy my new craving, but they didn’t measure up. I finally had to give up and just say that this is a shining jewel in the genre and be glad I got to see it. It took Netflix like 6 months to finally send it. I think they only have one copy and I was 50th in line or something.
