Razorfist Does Film Noir: Double Indemnity

Razorfist begins a new video essay series with his video on Double Indemnity, the Film Noir classic that broke the genre open and paved the way for so many others to imitate. Go on, watch it, preferably with the blinds drawn- but open.

I continue to be impressed at how well Razorfist does these videos. I'm not alone in finding an urge to locate a copy of the film to watch after this video, and I look forward to the rest of his Film Noir videos in the future. Looking back at his Action Cinema series will reveal how well he's developed as a presenter over the recent years, both in his acumen and in his production capacity. He's come a long way, and now I would rather watch him than any professional pablum out of E! or A&E or any other of the decaying cable networks.

Good God, this is good enough to merit--straight, no chaser--nomination for far more than a Dragon next year. Professional TV and film awards that have an amateur category should throw him a nod; it's that good. Rock on, Razorfist. You've truly come into your own, and I am glad to be along for the ride.
