One of my fave oldies. Movie was dropping red pills in the 40s.

Not even a top three Wilder film, but still really good. Billy Wilder was the greatest screenwriter of all time and english wasn't even his first language. Blows my mind

What's his top 3 then?

The Apartment
Sunset Boulevard
Some Like it Hot

then probably Double Indemnity

great film, despite being straightjacketed by the code

How does Body Heat compare to Double Indemnity?

Sunset boulevard wasn't that good desu, double indemnity, the big combo and detour were better.

Boring as fuck just like all the other code era movies.

I have mixed feelings about this movie. Sure the girl is an evil slut but the guy is a big asshole too. I don't feel bad for him and it tones down the evilness of the girl.

The African Queen ..

The Big Combo and Detour weren't done by Wilder.
I'd say
Sunset Boulevard
The Apartment
The Lost Weekend
cringe and bluepilled

Unironically better.

I know some arthoe girl that was rooting for Barbara Stanwyck’s character the entire time. This movie did a great job making her character sickening. I thought I would be rooting for her too just because she was hot

What code?

hays censorship code. it started in 1934, putting heavy restrictions on what could and couldn't be in films. it technically ended in 1968 when it was replaced by the rating system, but by the end of then, it had gotten more and more lenient on what was allowed in films

based retard

great dialogue
especially when they first meet

Sunset Blvd gets better each time you watch it, first time I didn't think it was that great either. Now I consider it Wilder's best.

Who "Lost Weekend" here?

I hate alcoholics

Um, okay?

Lost Weekend >>> Double Indemnity

it's fine

Good movie. The relationship between the protagonist and Keyes is the heart of the movie, there's a lot in it that I like.
