Judgment of Love and Desire

A very good anti-detective movie. The film begins by drawing the audience into a sophisticated conspiracy that cannot be escaped through a clever narrative angle. Then, through a series of twists and turns of events, the nature of many characters under the camera undergoes subversive changes, which not only strengthens the characters' characters, but also plays a strong role in promoting the dangerous process of the plot. The stance emphasizes a sense of social justice.
The two protagonists of the movie kept jumping on the moral standpoints of being murdered and murdered, and when the story finally came to light and the audience could finally relax their tense nerves, the extremely emotional ending made people fall into the deep end. deep contemplation. Billy Wilder is worthy of a generation of masters. He uses a very exciting story to explore the multi-faceted nature of human nature. Everyone has love, but no matter how beautiful love is, it will be burned into evil smoke by fiery lust.

Double Indemnity quotes

  • Barton Keyes: Eh? There it is, Walter. It's beginning to come apart at the seams already. Murder's never perfect. Always comes apart sooner or later, and when two people are involved it's usually sooner. Now we know the Dietrichson dame is in it *and* a somebody else. Pretty soon, we'll know who that somebody else is. He'll show. He's got to show. Sometime, somewhere, they've got to meet. Their emotions are all kicked up. Whether it's love or hate doesn't matter; they can't keep away from each other. They may think it's twice as safe because there's two of them,

    Barton Keyes: [chuckles]

    Barton Keyes: but it isn't twice as safe. It's ten times twice as dangerous. They've committed a *murder*! And it's not like taking a trolley ride together where they can get off at different stops. They're stuck with each other and they got to ride all the way to the end of the line and it's a one-way trip and the last stop is the cemetery. She put in her claim... I'm gonna throw it right back at her.

    [Walter hands Keyes a light]

    Barton Keyes: Let her sue us if she dares. I'll be ready for her *and* that somebody else. They'll be digging their own graves.

  • Walter Neff: Dear Keyes, I suppose you'll call this a confession when you hear it... Well, I don't like the word confession, I just want to set you right about something you couldn't see because it was smack up against your nose. You think you're such a hot potato as a claims manager; such a wolf on a phony claim... Maybe y'are. But let's take a look at that Dietrichson claim... accident and double indemnity. You were pretty good in there for awhile Keyes... you said it wasn't an accident, check. You said it wasn't suicide, check. You said it was murder... check.
