“You can’t kiss away a murder!”
A smooth-talking insurance salesman is lured into a deadly scheme by a seductive housewife who wants to murder her husband and collect the payout. As their carefully planned crime begins to unravel, suspicion and betrayal set in. This classic film noir simmers with tension, sharp dialogue, and the fatal pull of greed and desire.

If I had one movie to show people to explain what [film] noir is, it’s Double Indemnity.
