<\/strong>\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/strong>Double Indemnity<\/strong><\/a><\/em> is one of my favorite noir<\/strong> movies. \u00a0I’ve seen it a bunch of times.<\/p>\n

Raymond Chandler<\/strong>, who wrote just seven novels, is\u00a0one of the founding fathers of modern detective fiction. \u00a0I’ve read a lot of Chandler<\/strong> and knew he co-wrote the screenplay [along with director Billy Wilder<\/strong>] adaptation of James M. Cain’s novel of the same name<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Until recently I didn’t know that Chandler<\/strong> had a cameo in Double Indemnity<\/strong><\/em><\/a>. \u00a0What makes this an even greater find is that there are no known film or television interviews with Chandler<\/strong>!<\/p>\n
