Double Indemnity: In Double Indemnity, the femme fatal is shown in a very explicit way. She is shown standing at the top of the stairs in her towel as the third picture here shows, this was very different for the time this film was made and some audiences will have been very shocked by this. Also, the way she is standing makes her look superior as well as being 'flirty' and half naked.
The top picture is the end of the film but is shown at the start because of how the narrative in film noir's are laid out, it shows the everyman broken and injured and talking into the phone about what has happened.
