Elevator to the Gallows
Even the feature film introduction of famed director Louis Malle can be a interesting, modern film noir with the classic motif of lovers plotting to kill both your husband and also make it look like suicide (similar to The Postman Always Rings Twice). Jeanne Moreau gives an incredible performance, naive although perverse, as she leads her lover down a trail which could only lead to doom for each of them.
