About this listen

 Neo-noir author William Boyle joins Baker and Jason for a trip back to where it started; Billy Wilder's 1944 classic Double Indemnity. This one's got it all. Barbara Stanwyck. Fred MacMurray. Ill-planned murders. Mid-Atlantic accents. The pre-war insurance industry. The movie that launched noir still ranks among the best. https://linktr.ee/wmboyle4 (William Boyle), author of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/46158734-city-of-margins?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=1nJX1AJrlA&rank=1 (City of Margins) and the upcoming http://pegasusbooks.com/books/shoot-the-moonlight-out-9781643138251-hardcover (Shoot the Moonlight Out), coming 11/2/21 from Pegasus Books. https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/great-movie-double-indemnity-1944 (Roger Ebert's review, December, 1998 - Four stars) Marc Rivers, NPR, July, 2019 - https://www.npr.org/2019/07/31/746391982/double-indemnity-is-75-but-anklets-and-film-noir-are-forever ('Double Indemnity' Is 75, But Anklets (And Film Noir) Are Forever) Matthew Jackson, Mental Floss, September, 2018 - https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/555415/facts-about-double-indemnity-billy-wilder-barbara-stanwyck (10 Fascinating Facts About Double Indemnity) TLS on the web https://twitter.com/LongShadowPod (TLS on Twitter) TLS on Instagram https://www.facebook.com/longshadowpod/ (TLS on Facebook) https://ginnyrobbins.square.site (Ginny Robbins (original artwork)) https://ryanculwell.com/home (Ryan Culwell (theme music))
