Fullplot:

In 1938, Walter Neff, an experienced salesman of the Pacific All Risk Insurance Co., meets the seductive wife of one of his clients, Phyllis Dietrichson, and they have an affair. Phyllis proposes to kill her husband to receive the proceeds of an accident insurance policy and Walter devises a scheme to receive twice the amount based on a double indemnity clause. When Mr. Dietrichson is found dead on a train-track, the police accept the determination of accidental death. However, the insurance analyst and Walter's best friend Barton Keyes does not buy the story and suspects that Phyllis has murdered her husband with the help of another man.

Comments:

Corporis pariatur odit aspernatur iste nostrum accusantium ullam. Quibusdam in quas optio ratione. Minus sunt aspernatur rem corporis tenetur veniam. Tempore perspiciatis nemo animi cupiditate sequi.
