I just came back from a screening of Double Indemnity at the local library. It was a free screening and there were about 50 or so people in the audience. Regarding the age profile, let me just say that I am confident that I was the only person there with a cell phone!

I enjoyed it of course, and it is always fun to watch this movie in a theatre type environment, because the gags are all the more funny for people's reactions.

It took me about 4 viewings to fully grasp the story but everyone there seemed to follow the story very well.

Just a small snippet of information about my evening....

A great movie indeed.

I've watched it on the small screen many times.

I love that scene in the bosses office where he gives Edward G. a hard time
about not wearing a coat in his office.

"You find it exceptionally warm today, do you Keyes?"

Probably the funniest line in the whole movie:

"Next time I'll rent a tuxedo"

"Gas Chamber?" Please elaborate.

An alternate ending was shot for the film (to appease censors) featuring killer MacMurray going to the gas chamber. This footage is lost but stills of the scene still exist.
