Sklar explains, "[T]he unusual juxtaposition of temporalities gives the spectator a premonition of what will occur/has occurred in the flashback story.  ... Besides "Double Indemnity" and "Detour", voice-over is a key aspect of "Mildred Pierce", "Gilda", "The Lady from Shanghai", and "Out of the Past"  ... as well as many others." Critic and writer Wendy Lesser notes that the narrator of "Sunset Boulevard" is dead before he begins narrating, but in "Double Indemnity", "the voice-over has a different meaning. It is not the voice of a dead man  ... it is  ... the voice of an already doomed man." Ironically, Wilder stated:   I never heard that expression film noir when I made "Double Indemnity"  ... I just made pictures I would have liked to see. When I was lucky, it coincided with the taste of the audience. With "Double Indemnity", I was lucky. "Double Indemnity" was adapted as a radio play on two broadcasts of "The Screen Guild Theater", first on March 5, 1945 with Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwyck, then five years later on February 16, 1950 with Stanwyck and Robert Taylor. It was adapted to the October 15, 1948 broadcast of the "Ford Theatre" with Burt Lancaster and Joan Bennett and the October 30, 1950 broadcast of "Lux Radio Theater" with MacMurray and Stanwyck. Other films inspired by the Snyder-Gray murder include "The Postman Always Rings Twice" (also based on a Cain novel) and "Body Heat" (1981). Both "Postman" and "Double Indemnity" were remade: "Double Indemnity" as a television movie in 1973 starring Richard Crenna (who also starred in "Body Heat"), Lee J. Cobb, and Samantha Eggar; and is included on a bonus disc in the American DVD release of the original film. The "Postman Rings" remake was a 1981 theatrical release directed by Bob Rafelson and starring Jack Nicholson and Jessica Lange. An Indian film, "Jism" (2003), was inspired by the film. "Double Indemnity" is one of the films parodied in the 1993 film "Fatal Instinct"; the hero's wife conspires to have him shot on a moving train and fall into a lake so that she can collect on his insurance, which has a "triple indemnity" rider.
