Review of Double Indemnity (1944) by Peter F — 19 Feb 2013
One of the most seminal of all film noirs. Archetypes such as the femme fatale, the naive protagonist, and first-person narration seemed to have been legitimized by Double Indemnity, and emulated by countless films.
If the film feels any bit dated by today's standards, it's merely because it created those standards.
