Directed by Billy Wilder, who teamed with Raymond Chandler to adapt James M. Cain’s classic novel, this twisted tale of love and murder set the bar for film noir. Fred MacMurray stars as a hardened insurance investigator who falls for a married woman (Barbara Stanwyck). The pair conspires to get Stanwyck’s character out of her marriage and both of them into a fortune, but with disastrous results. The film received seven Oscar nominations including Best Picture and Best Actress (Stanwyck), and its memorable Los Angeles locations include Jerry’s Market and Stanwyck’s Hollywood Hills home.
