DIRECTOR: Billy Wilder
BOTTOM LINE:
One of the three great film noirs of 1944, the others being “Laura” and “The Woman in the Window.” Superb work by Barbara Stanwyck, Fred MacMurray, and Edward G. Robinson. Written and directed by Billy Wilder, collaborating on the screenplay with Raymond Chandler from the novel by James M. Cain. Was the real love affair between Walter Neff (MacMurray) and his boss Barton Keyes (Robinson) with Stanwyck as the black widow spider? The debate continues.
