D.O.A. (1950) FILM NOIR

[@Fandango541]

Hands down this is one of the best pieces of Film Noir ever made. Jesus I love this movie!! The way it opens with that long walk down the hall, every frame, every damn minute of this film is pure genius. Truly--they just don't make 'em like this anymore and there are no actors today who could play these roles. Thanks for posting this!!!!

@David Loehmann I'm not so sure your vision hasn't been completely clouded by the nostalgia goggles you're currently wearing, David. Sure, It's an entertaining flick, but it's all over the map when it comes to acting, dialog, and edits that are rather amateurish at best, even for the time and lack of budget. It's the plot of the film that keeps me interested and despite the rather derivative script of the remake, I think the 1988 version is far superior.

[@davidparris7167]

This a favorite of mine. A wonderful noir classic with Edmond O'Brien giving one of his finest performances along with all the others involved who can all take a well-deserved bow. Have watched it many times and has never lost its power and sheer old school entertainment value.

[@JC-gw3yo]

Great actors, great plot and great movie

[@Is..4110]

It's because of this movie that I'm a huge fan of film noir..... Edmund O'Brien was a brilliant actor and the ladies of that era , no one else compares...

[@glorialange6446]

Brilliant. No other version of the movie can match this one. Edmond O'Brien and his first mention of his own murder was superb!

I just watched the whole thing. Holy mother of god was it good!!!!! How come I’ve never heard of this film???? This is the best film noir I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen a lot of them.

[@cynthiaenglish2736]

I LOVE Edmund O’Brien whether radio or films. I heard the radio version of DOA and loved it. Seeing the movie was even more rewarding. Thank you!

[@ECheatwood1]

Saw this movie as a kid and it was responsible for my love of classic movies ever since.

[@albietide]

My grandmother saw this film when it first appeared in theaters.

[@akarpowicz]

When I was a teen mid 197o's, , my mother heard DOA was going to be shown on TV. She remembered seeing it in the threatre. We huddled around the one TV with an antenna that could pick up the station that was showing it. (Rural area.) It was very fuzzy, We loved it. I'd never heard the term film noir. This was my introduction.

[@dadycreations100]

The initial long walk down the hall and an original plot, the victim of an homicide who kills his own killer prior this one would kill him, are the biggest merits of this historical movie. Engaging.

[@newtronix]

Man that was a fantastic movie. For want of sounding clichéd, they don't make 'em like that any more.

Any film with Edmond O’Brien is well worth seeing. The penny-whistle is quite funny but not sure it doesn’t detract from the serious aspect of a wonderful film. Outside shot of Bigalow running in panic is just so good. Thank you for posting.

[@Dick67]

yeah whats with that goofy whistle?

[@Fandango541]

I frickin hate that penny-whistle!! I think it was added later by the studio who believed it didn't have enuf 'kick' to it. Those studio execs had the $$$ but they also had the brains god gave a turd--no brains at all.

[@stephenarling1667]

The goofy slide whistle adds tension to the film, leading the viewer to wonder "what is this strange thing that's about to unfold?"

[@Conservative-i3f]

Whistle should be muted. It was stupid.

Edmond O´Brien was a phantastic actor, the so called second row, like Robert Ryan, Ed Begley, Lee J. Cobb, Fred McMurray, Leo G. Carroll and so on...

[@glendasmilesalot2959]

Saw this one in a film class in college and has become one of my top ten film noir movies. I could not help but laugh when all of the folks were dancing to that crazy band. I just wish life was so simple that we could all get along like that! I died laughing when the doctor "manhandled" Frank! I love when Chester got cracked in the head by the pharmacist! So many great scenes! Thanks for sharing this!

[@SenorQuichotte]

One of the best film noirs. The opening is classic.

[@LordZontar]

Edmond O'Brien was one of the greatest character actors ever. His first major film role was in 1939's The Hunchback Of Notre Dame as the poet Grangoire and he looked to have a very promising future as a leading man in the movies. When World War II came, O'Brien enlisted in the USAAF and it was during his military service that he started having problems controlling his weight; also the timbre of his voice changed and that changed his career trajectory. O'Brien would score a few starring roles in the ensuing years but it was as a character actor that he made his indelible mark as a performer. This movie is one of his few truly outstanding starring roles on top of a stellar portfolio of character roles which were some of the most memorable of any actor in any period.

[@aspears4008]

One of my favorite movies.

[@lorrainejones2588]

I first saw this movie years ago and i fell in love with it. My era is Leonardo Decarpio Mark Wahlberg Brad Pitt Tom Hanks but i love these old b&w movies. Bogie is my all time favorite. He died 6 years before i was born. Bacall is my all time female but Melissa McCarthy. Sandra Bullock Julia Roberts Jodie Foster and Dakota Fanning are all up there with Bacall too. I love lots of movies from all years except silent. This is one good movie.

The opening scene reminds of the stark interior of the old California state, county and local governmental offices when I was a kid during the early to mid 1960s. This scene especially reminds me of the state unemployment office where my uncle went to to find work after he arrived to live with us from the Bronx, NYC.

I liked the little trivia fact that when Edmond O'Brien runs down the street after learning he was murdered, he was pushing and shoving real citizens who had no idea this was a movie shoot.

[@misskim2058]

They still do it to the public, and report it as real. Crisis acting and crowd sourcing aren’t multi-billion dollar industries for marketing to the masses, are they? Nope. It takes very deep pockets to fund it, make it so lucrative when there is zero public advertising for this “service”, and it takes a worldwide stage to perform it. They aren’t private performances. There’d be no need for that. Put news cameras on, and the public also has no idea it’s a “drill”, or a publicly-performed soap opera reported as real. Forensics don’t lie, people do. And reality TV was (and still is) the perfect social experiment to see what absolutely disgusting things some people would do (and what abuse they’d tolerate as well), and how low people would stoop to betray their fellow man and even the ones they claim to love the most for a few dollars and some air time on TV, and to find out how gullible people would be to believe whatever they are shown. Ha. They sure got their answer. I’m sure they also don’t report how many people have cut them off entirely and just don’t engage at all, no news, TV or Hollywood. Minds can see much more clearly when they aren’t crammed with propaganda (which is legal, the news is “entertainment” and legalized propaganda, and it doesn’t actually have to report one single shred of truth, but it does help the lies go down). It’s almost funny to hear people talk of the propaganda campaigns of other countries, while naïvely and childishly believing that THEIR own country doesn’t do it, or “not very much, or we’d know about it!”. Oh sure. “They couldn’t”. “They wouldn’t”. “It would too expensive”. “Everyone would have to be in on it”. “Everyone would know, no one would believe it”. We’ve heard it all, and they’re all wrong. It’s your tax dollars, so nothing is too expensive, besides, they print their own money, so that’s a silly thing to say. It’s just like a terrorist cell, and everyone operates on a “need to know basis”. People have Santa hoax every year, and look how many people are “in on that”, All those couriers, delivering packages to homes are in on this hoax, department stores, and school teachers, and all manner of “fine, upstanding citizens” are “in on it”. ....and it’s not even an *organized* hoax, funded by one organization and controlled, it’s just a word-of-mouth, shoot-from-the-hip hoax, and it works every year on tons of kids… And this is where we hear that “grown-ups wouldn’t fall for hoaxes, only children do”. That’s precisely why adults do. Reporters just read teleprompters that roll the scripts produced by Tavistock and CoIntelPro, just paid puppets, hired to “shape and mold public opinion, both foreign and domestic”. And whenever a TV watcher opens his or her mouth, it becomes readily apparent, their programming and parroting is pert-near flawless. And how sweet of the reporters to thank them for a “tuning in“ to their “programming“, and their top “stories“... after first counting their mind down into a state of alpha, of course. Alpha, where their subconscious will readily except everything streamed visually and audibly, at flicker rates and frequencies perceptible and imperceptible. And all of that was in the very first TV patent. They’ve made enormous strides, enormous ones since then... you should see what they’ve done with schematics and what they can do if they have your DNA. That happens to be a frequency, too...a very specific one.
