Double Indemnity

Phyllis and Walter were not happy with their lifes, Phyllis did not want to be married to her husband. She wanted to have him killed so that she would be free from him. Walter was not happy with his life, looking for a client he met his wife and obviously fell for her but there was to much in between and he just couldn’t have her. In the end based on the outcome it was apparent they had different values and desires. Phyllis seemed to be unhappy in her marriage and wanted out and Walter found himself lusting for a married woman that obviously he could not have. In my opinion neither of them had any values. In this Film fate definitely played a huge role. One that was demonstrated in the end, after having done everything possible no matter what the cost was, having achieved their desires or so they thought, only to find that it was nothing close to what they really expected. As Walter said “I wanted the money and didn’t get it, I wanted her and I couldn’t get her either.”

In opinion, this film holds many like real life incidents. Cases where people in today’s century may have foud them selves dealing with or have had experiences with similar situations. The personality of each individual and their morals of life speaks volumes. And it’s apparent that things of that nature have never really changed in todays age. I have concluded this type of film with the way everything was happening and what took place, it is definitely what a nihilistic world looks like..
