8.5.07

If my calculations are correct then it is time for me to select the next film and host the next screening. I have selected the 1944 film "Double Indemnity" directed by Billy Wilder. According to Netflix, I should be getting it in the mail tomorrow. Here is a taste of what is in store for you (from Netflix):

Smitten insurance man Walter Neff (Fred MacMurray) plots the perfect murder with femme fatale client Phyllis Dietrichson (Barbara Stanwyck): Stage her husband's "accidental" death to collect double indemnity on his life insurance, then abscond with the loot. But the lethal duo must first get past a crafty claims investigator (Edward G. Robinson) who senses something isn't kosher. What ensues is a cat-and-mouse game with fatal consequences.

The movie is 108 minutes of classic film-noir. Bring your appetite as pizza will be provided. If you can't come / don't intend to come then please let me know so I will know how much pizza to order. See you at 8:00 PM this Sunday, August 5.

Just watched Ace In The Hole. It's phenomenal. Look forward to another Billy Wilder.
