Lux presents Hollywood. Leave your brother's company, the makers of Lux Toilet Soap, bring you the Lux Radio Theatre, starring Barbara Standwick and Fred McMurray in Double Incentity. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. William Keel.
Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. If you know, I began a serial in a weekly magazine called Double Indemnity, and believe me thereafter, I eagerly awaited each new installment. It was one of the most thrilling of James M. Cain's novels, and when Paramount Pictures brought to the screen, I found the film even more exciting.
My renewed enthusiasm was due to our stars, Barbara Stanwick and Fred McMurray, who created two of the most electrifying characterizations of their careers. Double Indemnity is a drama of intense emotion between two people whose infatuation leads them to murder and revenge.
And as a study and suspense, I'm sure you'll find it entirely satisfying. Just as the ladies of our listening audience find our product Lux Toilet Soaf entirely satisfying for beauty care, especially these fall days, for throughout all the changes of weather, luck soap remains of favorite complexion care.
