Classic Double Feature on a Saturday

Saturday, May 21, 2011

This one feels a bit timely, and in such honor I must oblige.

First: Avanti! - 1972
Featuring - Jack Lemmon and Juliet Mills


Second: Double Indemnity - 1944
Featuring - Fred MacMurray, Barbara Stanwyck, and Edward G. Robinson


Theme: Billy Wilder delivers a double dose of infidelity with alternative ever afters.

Noteworthy Accolades:
1 Golden Globe Award: Best Actor in a Musical/Comedy for Avantai - Jack Lemmon (the film earned an additional five nominations)
Seven Oscar Nominations: All for Double Indemnity, but no wins.

Univarn's Ratings:
Avanti - 7.50/10
Double Indemnity - 9.00/10


Enjoy!
