{{quote|''I killed him for money, and for a woman. I didn't get the money, and I didn't get the woman. Pretty, isn't it?''|'''Walter Neff'''}}
A 1944 [[Film Noir]], directed by [[Billy Wilder]], written by him and [[Raymond Chandler]], and adapted from [[James M. Cain]]'s earlier novel of the same title
Walter Neff (Fred MacMurray) is a successful but bored insurance salesman who encounters Phyllis Dietrichson (Barbara Stanwyck) when he comes to her house to discuss automobile insurance. After the two have traded some innuendo-laden banter, Phyllis reveals that her marriage is not a particularly happy one and the pair end up conspiring to trick her husband into taking out an accident insurance policy -- and ensure that he then meets a tragic "accidental" end.
