About
An insurance salesman is drawn into a plan with a married woman to kill her husband and claim a double-indemnity life insurance payout.
In Los Angeles, insurance salesman Walter Neff (Fred MacMurray) calls on Phyllis Dietrichson (Barbara Stanwyck) about her husband's car insurance. She asks him about taking out a life policy on her husband, Mr. Dietrichson (Tom Powers), without his knowledge. Neff realises she may be thinking of murder and wants no part of it, but he is drawn to her. When Phyllis visits his apartment, he sets out a plan: her husband will sign a life policy without knowing it, and his death will be staged as a train accident so that the double indemnity clause pays out. The scheme arouses the suspicion of claims manager Barton Keyes (Edward G. Robinson).
Based on Double Indemnity
