I personally think double indemnity is a very well write film noir, and fits along the lines of a film noir in many ways. The main women Phyllis meets Walter and together they come up with this plan to kill her husband after putting him under accident insurance. Phyllis is a much more powerful character than Walter is because shes able to make him fall so much in love with her that hes willing to do anything for her. It also takes place in L.A where many films of this type are filmed because it was cheaper. In the end of the movie it turns out Phyllis was just using Walter and was in love with another man so he killed her. This movie deals with murder and lies, just like all the other typical film noirs. This has become my favorite film noir i have ever seen just because of the characters, the story line, and all the lies and misperception.
