Trying to decide between Double Indemnity and something shorter. Is the running time part of the appeal here?

Tadhg, i have added a boost too. Would be interesting to see how it sits beside the other choices.

Double Indemnity is one I am weighing up. I would like to see this in the six with a few very different choices around it.

Cian, i am following this thread for exactly that reason. Happy to hear a few different opinions.

For anyone considering Double Indemnity: This would be a good change of pace from the things currently at the top of my list.
