Friday night, the N.C. Museum of Art’s fall film series “The Women of Film Noir” continues with a Universal Archive print of Billy Wilder’s “Double Indemnity” (1944).

The black-and-white classic, which stars Fred MacMurray, Barbara Stanwyck and Edward G. Robinson, was nominated for seven Oscars, but surprisingly lost in every category, mostly to Leo McCarey’s “Going My Way,” a film which is nowhere near as highly regarded these days.

“Double Indemnity” starts at 8 at the Museum Auditorium in the East Building. Tickets are $5 ($3.50 for students and NCMA, Cinema Inc. and Galaxy Cinema members). Details: 919-715-5923; ncartmuseum.org/calendar.
