The Postman Always Rings Twice



The Postman Always Rings Twice is a 1934 crime novel by James M. Cain, which has been adapted for film on multiple occassions. The title is something of a non sequitur in that nowhere in the novel does a postman character appear, nor is one even alluded to.

A segment of Monsterpiece Theater features a spin on the famous film noir movie, with Grover waiting for the postman to deliver an important letter but, while waiting, many other people come to his house.
