There are females in the film of noir that either have dutieful, reliable and trustworthy. Mysterous duplicitous, double crossing, gorgeous, unloving, predatory, tough-sweet, unreliable, irresponsible, manipulative and desperate women"( From the website- Filmsite). These characteristics of femme fatale are perfect fit for Phyllis and walter.
The relationship between Walter, the insurance agent and Phyllis is an extra marital relationship. From the beginning, as a reader it's been a disgusting impact on my mind. The story getting more towards next move, it was predictable that, the illicit relationship of Walter and Phyllis is going to be together any moment.their base of relationship is so dismantle and sudden that it has to be ended with no useful suucessful action of the relationship.
For the second part of action of the novel is really nocticeable. The description,of the attitude of cruness and heartless murder of Mr. Nerdlinger gives readers nervous and scared want could happen next after this point. After reading the killing part of Mr. Nerdlinger, it seems that, Walter and Phyllis are equally morally corrupted. that, it gives the readers a sign wants going on. when Walter feels kind of cold about Phyllis. His conversation with Phyllis does not combine with their relationship. He seems to have a cautioness feeling which confirms, what he feels about not kissing Phyllis, neither he says goodbye when he leaves-"We didn't kiss. We didn't even say good-bye. I got out of her car, got in mine started and drove"(pg 53). This portion of the novel gives a clear indication of the seperation of two lovecouples.
The thoughts, which were running through Walter's head is really speaking to the readers;that specially when he got home after killing Mr. Nerdlinger. He was feeling so restless about thinking of what horrible sin he has committed so far in crime seen and want he could be capitiable of next.
