This film noir was directed by Billy Wilder and co-written by Wilder and Raymond Chandler. The film stars Fred MacMurray as an insurance salesman, Barbara Stanwyck as a seductive wife who wishes her husband dead, and Edward G. Robinson as an insurance analyst, whose job is to investigate bogus claims. The term 'double indemnity' refers to a clause in certain life insurance policies, that doubles the pay-out for certain conditions, such as when death occurs as a result of an accident. This film is the definition of film noir, and one of the finest and most influential examples of the genre.
