I'll take an actual location anytime:

RKO Pictures "Cry Danger" (1951)


Paramount Pictures "The Turning Point" (1952)

The market scene in the film Double Indemnity was filmed at the Los Feliz Mart on Vermont. The studio even had city cops on the location scene for security.

Those old markets look very funky when compared to today.


Los Feliz Mart, on Vermont.

This interior is a real market.

The old 1939 Los Feliz market building was torn down in the 1990s.
