I was so excited when my film class watched Double Indemnity and the profs brought up the fact that the noir genre frequently used coded homosexuality as well as the more overt femme fatales as part of the whole sex=danger vibe.
I'm pretty sure I was the only one melting at every little cigarette lighting and quip, but oh man... Theirs made for such a tragic tale.
