Double IndemnityPG
Insurance salesman Walter Neff thinks he’s pulling off the perfect crime when he conspires with the seductive Phyllis Dietrichson to murder her husband and collect his life insurance money. But as the plan spirals out of control, they soon finds themselves ensnared in a deadly game of greed. Based on a novella by James M. Cain, Billy Wilder’s (Sunset Boulevard, The Apartment) razor-sharp exploration of moral decay features one of cinema’s most iconic femme fatales and a plot that twists and tightens like a noose.
Reviews
‘Film noir is the most intoxicating of Hollywood cocktails, and none is more potent than Double Indemnity.’
★★★★★
Marc Lee, The Telegraph
‘Film noir at its finest, a template of the genre, etc. Billy Wilder in full swing, Barbara Stanwyck’s finest hour, and Fred MacMurray makes a great chump.’
★★★★★
Rob Fraser, Empire Magazine

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road. We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
