Mariah Carey may already be getting out her stocking but here at Oscar Wild, it\\u2019s time for Noir-vember. With so many titles to choose from in this fatalistic genre/style of femme fatales, crime, and sharp lighting, Sophia and Nick decided to cover two of Billy Wilder\\u2019s shining noir films: Double Indemnity and Sunset Blvd. In the former, Phyllis and Walter come up with the perfect plan to defraud and murder her husband. Listen for a full discussion on what happens when things go awry, favorite scenes and performances, and why Barbara Stanwyck\\u2019s wig is more than just a sore subject.

Then, it\\u2019s all about an out-of-touch silent film star in the shockingly narrated Sunset Blvd. What makes Norma Desmond one of the most memorable performances of all time? Find out what Paul Hollywood would have to say about her dilapidated mansion and if her astrology actually holds true (37:20).
