Movie Haiku:Film Noir classic. An insurance salesman (MacMurray) coolly narrates his own seduction by the blonde who lures him to the dark side. Robinson’s superb as his boss, a man of unsurpassed logic who misses critical clues for the first & last time. Wilder’s biting dialogue is the devil’s purest poetry.
