The great James Cagney (The Roaring Twenties, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye) stars in the compelling spy thriller, Blood on the Sun. Cagney is Nick Condon, an American newspaperman working in Tokyo prior to the bombing of Pearl Harbor, who finds himself in possession of an enemy plan for world domination. Amidst political intrigue and crossed loyalties, Condon must now find a way to warn the outside world. A fine, riveting melodrama with a judo-fighting Cagney at his fiery best, Blood on the Sun was directed by Frank Lloyd (Mutiny on the Bounty) and features the spellbinding Sylvia Sidney (You and Me) with Porter Hall (The General Died at Dawn), John Emery (Spellbound), Robert Armstrong (King Kong) and Wallace Ford (Flesh and Fury).

Has dialogue ever been more perfectly hard-boiled? Has a femme fatale ever been as deliciously evil as Barbara Stanwyck? And has 1940s Los Angeles ever looked so seductively sordid? Working with cowriter Raymond Chandler, director Billy Wilder launched himself onto the Hollywood A-list with this paragon of film-noir fatalism from James M. Cain’s pulp novel. When slick salesman Walter Neff (Fred MacMurray) walks into the swank home of dissatisfied housewife Phyllis Dietrichson (Stanwyck), he intends to sell her insurance, but he winds up becoming entangled with her in a far more sinister way. Featuring scene-stealing supporting work from Edward G. Robinson and the chiaroscuro of cinematographer John F. Seitz, Double Indemnity is one of the most wickedly perverse stories ever told and the cynical standard by which all noir must be measured. 2-BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES New 4K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack Audio commentary featuring film critic Richard Schickel New interview with film scholar Noah Isenberg, editor of Billy Wilder on Assignment New conversation between film historians Eddie Muller and Imogen Sara Smith Billy, How Did You Do It?, a 1992 film by Volker Schlöndorff and Gisela Grischow featuring interviews with director Billy Wilder Shadows of Suspense, a 2006 documentary on the making of Double Indemnity Audio excerpts from 1971 and 1972 interviews with cinematographer John F. Seitz Radio adaptations from 1945 and 1950 Trailer English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
