The clip Alone with Mrs Dietrichson from Double Indemnity (1944) with Barbara Stanwyck, Fred MacMurray

Hello, Mr. Neff. Aren't you coming in?
I'm considering it.
I hope you didn't mind my changing the appointment.
Last night wasn't so convenient. That's all right.
I was working on my stamp collection anyway.
I was just fixing some iced tea. Would you like a glass?
Yeah, unless you've got a bottle of beer that's not working.
There may be some. I never know what's in the icebox.
Nettie.
About those renewals, Mr. Neff. I talked to my husband about it.
Oh, you did? Yes. He'll renew with you, he told me so.
As a matter of fact, I thought he'd be here this afternoon.
But he's not?
No.
That's terrible.
Nettie.
Oh, I forgot, today's the maid's day off.
Never mind the beer. Iced tea will be fine.
Lemon? Sugar? = ix it your way.
As long as it's the maid's day off, maybe there's something I can do for you.
Like running the vacuum cleaner. Fresh.
I used to peddle vacuum cleaners.
Not much money, but you learn a lot about life.
I didn't think you'd learned it from a correspondence course.
Where'd you pick up this tea drinking?
You're not English, are you?
No. Californian.
Born right here in Los Angeles.
They say all native Californians come from Iowa.
Mr. Neff, I...
Make it Walter, huh?
Walter.
That's right.
Tell me, Walter, on this insurance, how much commission do you make?
Twenty percent. Why?
I thought perhaps I could throw a little more business your way.
I can always use it. I was thinking about my husband.
I worry a lot about him down in those oil fields.
t's very dangerous.
Not for an executive, is it?
He doesn't just sit behind a desk.
He's right down there with those drilling crews.
It's got me worried sick.
You mean, some dark night a crown block might fall on him?
Please don't talk like that. But that's the idea.
