You should check out Scarlet Street, same director, same cast.

I saw the 80s remake a while back with Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan, it's actually not that bad.

Thanks to this thread, I watched Double Indemnity last night on Netflix.

Wow...talk about a great movie. It is awesome to see a movie made in 1944 that is better than most of the movies that are made now. Seriously one of the best stories with some of the best dialogue in any movie I've seen.

That's probably true. But the guy did list some decent movies.
