Double Indemnity

I thought that this was one of the better movies that we have watched so far. I found Neff to be a classic Film Noir male. He was a malicious murderer, yet I found myself on his side. I don't know why I routed for him but he was very charming in that way. Phylis was also a textbook fem fetal. She was also a murderer but I didn't seem attached to her. Some classic Noir elements that I noticed were the Venetian blinds. These were used in Keye's office to show that Neff wasn't exactly squeaky clean. It kind of puts people in the gray area. I thoung the plot was very clever. I really enjoyed the mystery aspect even though we knew that he got shot and would be found out. This movie opened a knew scope of films that I think I enjoy.
