The film noir genre is just asking for parody. All those shadows, window blinds, guns, fedoras and high heels.

I later sat down with the real Double Indemnity - and it was quite the sight to see - that definitely wasn't Steven Douglas, the old lady from The Colbys, and the old guy from Soylent Green up there! It's engrossing, twisty, and pretty mean for a 1940's movie - and I'm very fond of it! Another spot on choice, Luana!Craig Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06037542638067599437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702746.post-23402148732795904672011-07-01T17:58:47.046-07:002011-07-01T17:58:47.046-07:00I've never watched this movie, but the trailer...I've never watched this movie, but the trailer looks good.Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14175778756449339363noreply@blogger.com
