This is a great example of a nightmare in black and white. It's one of the best film noirs of the post WWII era. Excellent cast. Excellent performances. Great director (Rudolph Mate'.) Thanks, Cult Cinema Classics.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for your feedback! It's great to know our viewers enjoy our channel and it's content. Cheers!
Great film for the era, depicting well the despair and anxiety one would experience learning they had a toxin and were going to die.
The street scenes of San Francisco were real, and hadn’t been restricted from normal daily traffic. The old cars, buildings, quaint medical drs, dance scenes and bop music make it a classic to watch! Paula is the woman for me, hands down!
@@commanderthorkilj.amundsen3426 -- Thanks for the great comment! Take care -- W
Can you give me the names of some other great noirs like this please ? I am already on rhe Bogart movies so they are covered .
@@Danthehorse "Out of The Past" is a VERY well-done noir. "Detour" is a lesser-known film, but it's quite good. "Laura" is very a very good WWII era film. "Kiss of Death" is very good. A young Richard Widmark makes his film debut as a sadistic hood. "Double Indemnity" is another landmark film. "White Heat" is an excellent crime drama with James Cagney as a vicious thug. I hope all of that helps. Cheers -- W
WHAT GIVES WITH THE PUMP WHISTLE ALMOST KILLED IT FOR ME
That should have been edited out: maybe some latter-day edit will remove it from a print.
Agree. So ridiculous. The start of this movie leaves a lot to be desired. 20 mins in and no suspense or story, just a lot of floozy, boozy, partying silliness.
This is film noir at its absolute best. The opening sequence is so ahead of its time and you are gripped from beginning to end.
The jazz band in the movie was led by saxophone player James Streeter. Other band members were Shifty Henry (bass), Alex “Cake” Wichard (drums), Ray LaRue (piano) and Teddy Buckner (trumpet).
Wow, thanks for the info!

My pleasure. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
ANY B/W MOVIE WITH LIVE JAZZ EXCSTACY N THIS MOVIE IS SO VERY ATMOSPHERIC ITS 3am IN BRITAIN COFFEE N TOAST N A FEW HRS SHUT EYE BEFORE SHAKING HANDS WITH THE DAY BACK TO THE MOVIE N ENJOY
Born in 1960 I remember the black and white tv we had when I grew up, Edmond O'Brien was such a great actor, he played in one of Gagneys big hit movies, he's great on this as well. This is a treat. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
White Heat.
This is a masterpiece. The suspense and the tone of the film was kept up to the end. WoW4 What an amazing story, cast direction and music.
Possible spoiler alert.
my review from a few years ago.
"DOA is Quite enjoyable and unusual. A fatally poisoned man spends the whole film trying to find out who poisoned him and why. From the opening long tracking shot of Edmond O'Brien's back as he makes his way to police headquarters to the final dark and surprising ending, this film never lets up. O'Brien enter the homicide division at the police station a says "i want to report a murder" The chief says " Who was murdered?" The answer from O'Brien? " I was" Right then you know this is gonna be a good one.
O'Brien, in a very fine performance, is like a pinball bouncing from one scene to the next as he tries, in a long flashback, to unravel the horrible event that has happened to him. And he has only a few days to do it due to the poison's effects. O'Brien is very likable in his role as an accountant. He's a good man, but at his modest office, he's overworked and harassed by his secretary girlfriend (Barbara Britton) to pay more attention to her.
There are some tender scenes with Britton that sharply contrast with very brutal ones, provided by Neville Brand as a terrifying psychopathic sadist. You can't take your eyes off him and his scenes are outstanding. As the brains behind the gangsters, Luther Adler is convincing too. The cinematography by Ernest Lazlo is superb mostly around locations in San Francisco and L.A.. One sequence in particular was secretly shot on the street in front of a real crowd of unsuspecting people as O'Brien runs through them. These cinema verite type shots are compelling and something special to the film.
Rudolph Mate, the director, was originally a cameraman who filmed two Carl Dreyer classics, The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) and Vampyr (1932) Visually the later is one of the most extraordinary films I've seen. He was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Cinematography in five consecutive years, from 1940-1944. So you know he has a good eye and his direction here is excellent.The sense of urgency and doom is almost palpable in this kinetic noir.
Foster Hirsch, the author of books on noir and a commentator on CUNY TV wrote " "O'Brien's search for his own killer is noir irony at its blackest. One of the film's many ironies is that his last desperate search involves him in his life more forcefully than he has ever been before... Tracking down his killer just before he dies - discovering the reason for his death - turns out to be the triumph of his life." .
The ending must have been shocking for viewers in 1950 and it still is. I've seen the film a few times and the ending is still brutal and unsettling. Give producer Leo Popkin and his short-lived Cardinal Pictures credit for not caving in to popular taste.
On the downside I found some of the soundtrack distracting. The wolf whistles are obviously out of place but other segments of Dimitri Tiomkin's music seemed heavy handed and worked against the action. In one of the earliest filmed scenes of a Beatnik club, the jazz combo playing was a bad misstep by someone. It was quite obvious (to me anyway) they were not really playing their instruments. The drumming was passable but not the rest of the band.. If they had just let them play live it would have been a wonderful scene. Why they didn't is beyond me.
But those are minor misgivings in what otherwise is a fine film. Classic noir story---an ordinary human being, through a twist of fate, is hurled into a dreadful situation. This one's a beaut. Highly recommended."
I felt the outdoor city scenes really helped capture the era and Americana. I also especially liked him running through the streets in his initial terror, I thought that was powerful cinematography. Thank you CCC
One of the best noirs, could watch it over n over
Good movie! The remake in the 80s wasn't too bad. But i still gotta go with the original.
One helluva movie!!!
Too bad they don't make em like this anymore.
One of the kind....Only the end was sad....And Paula was such a lovely young woman....We close our eyes and go deep in the past...
😊agreed
I've seen this movie 5 times over the decades and I still can't figure-out the entire plot. Too many names, people, suspects, etc,. Nevertheless I still like this movie.
Agreed. There was too many names that kept being introduced and stories to keep track of. [Spoiler] The main character wasn't even all that likeable as he wasn't ever true to Paula until it was too late and she was all he had. I was entertained, but there are so many other great ones. Next on my list: Detour, Act of Violence, The 39 Steps, The Letter, The Sting.
Have you seen 711 Ocean Drive? How about Shield For Murder? Both are on youtube. @@rayfinkle9369
I can't wait, Edmond Obrien is a 10
Yassssss brother, yassssss.
Fantastic Film 🎥 thanks for sharing!! And I really hope this gets a Blu-ray soon it really is A Wonderful Super Enjoyable Film Noir!!
DOA is one of the best in the Film Noir genre. I watch it every once in a while. Also, the settings, Fisherman's Warf in that period, and L.A., with tumbleweeds! Absolutely a Cult Classic!
I remember seeing it and being glued to my seat as a kid. Always wanted to see it again. Thanks!
So glad CCC made it possible for you to see it again! Cheers!
This was gorgeously shot and paced. A phenomenal film noir, probably my favorite so far. I was glued throughout, lots of action and suspense. 👍
Fantastic film. Huge fan of Mr. Obrien. What a career he had. He did "Julius Caesar" with Gielgud, Brando, Tom Powers ("Double Indemnity"), and James Mason.
Also co-starred with Cagney in "White Heat" 1948.Great Ending.
@@robertschuster6922
One of my top favorites. Also the film he did with Burt Lancaster and Ava Gardner -- "The Killers." Sam Levene is in it, too.
Thanks ♥
In this era of films, an unusual case of the protagonist not living happily ever after, w/a nice, neat, feel good ending.
Well it is Noir for a reason
That's true. Cagney was a good example of that since they never let the gangsters win. Even though he was the one you rooted for.
"Crime never pays"@@rayfinkle9369
That's better! Brilliant film.
Thank you for this movie, which is the second time I've seen it, I saw it 2 years ago, excellent.
@adrianlois6284 Glad you love it! Its available in color, in case you want to check it out a 3rd time with a different touch to it. Check the description box in any movie, and you'll find a link to the color (or B&W) version if its available!
Bigelow shoulda stayed home with Paula instead of going to San Francisco for a wild time.
Women back then were something special. I love watching the women roles in these old movies, they're so attractive and lovely. They just draw you in with their charm.
No one can act or write stories like that anymore!! I'm so sick of every other word being a swear word!! That's what pretends to be story telling today.
This is the best thing O'Brien ever did. Great script, great movie, as good as film noir every is😊. It's never been done better 😊.
Thank you!!!!
Cheers!
Merci beaucoup.
What an amazing movie!
Cool movie. Never thought that NCIS serie had been not the first of their kind till that much older movie about the same plot)
Thank you for the movies ❤
great movie and tragic at the same time
Can you believe it Edmond o brien. Played in one of the best western. WILD BUNCH 😊
I saw this movie two decades ago and I couldn't remember the name or anything else much about it. I just remembered it was a man who was going to die so he had to act with urgency. Such an important story about time and making the most of it before it's too late.
Excellent movie
Waiting to see such great movies
Great movie. A favorite!
Good movie. Thank you.
This movie was released in 1950. Although, it was filmed in 1949 and I like the 1988 remake movie from Touchstone Pictures with Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan.
Edmond is great in Welles's The Other side of the wind - his swansong, so to speak
He reminds me of Ricky Ricardo
Excellent film, thanks.
Subtitle Persian very very good thanks ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Move Photo Caption: Dude: What's the prognoises doc? Doc: For you I see a bad moon ricin, dude. You a walkin' dead man, a zombie. Can I get dibs on your bank account? Dude: Quit clowin', doc. What's the score? Doc: If I'm lyin', I'M DYIN'. Dude: Cheeky! 😆 Such smart banter. I'm watching this film noir. 😊
Film Noir at its very, very best.
Excelente filme !
Gostei muito !
Ótimo para assistir de madrugada 😊

Classic!
Excelente
I think this is one of the *safer’ film noir films when you compare it to the likes of Kiss me Deadly, Out Of The Past, The Killing. The hero is a little too heroic for me
Интересный динамичный фильм.
I could search for her.., just wondering if Pamela Britton is related to Barbara (Mr. & Mrs. North; Captain Kidd)
Muy buena peli!
Gracias!! Nos alegremos que la disfrutase! Saludos!
The very first thing, genius: you should've go the police in the beginning of the poisoning.
Bonne série B, typique des années 1940-50...

How bout' Neville Brand as Chester!!!! One of the best thugs ever!!!
That performance was a lot of fun!
Beverly Garland (Campbell) looks completely different as a brunette!
Sospecho que es un buen film.Los subtitulos en castellano parecen hechos por Tarzan.-
Gracias por dejárnoslo saber. Miraremos a ver si se pueden mejorar. Esperamos que pueda disfrutar de otras películas en nuestro canal. Saludos!
Más bien parecen hechos por Chita. 🙊🙈🙉
👍👍👍
What was his disease. Flaming fluronemia or something?
He received delibaretly luminous toxine in his drink ....Watch it!!!!A great film noir....
HIs disease was a pickled liver. Too much hooch. Blame the bartender.
Ho-ho-ho! I'm here to kick butt and lick candy canes, and I'm all out of candy canes!😂
Bad ending. Writer could have said specialist surgery saved him, NOT dead. NOT a good writing cz viewers do NOT want to end like this! I will NOT watch again!
What is with the wolf whistle at every girl?
D.o.a.
Neville Brand ................... So Vastly Under Rated .............. WW2 VET
LOL the elevator @ 43:40 only has one set of sliding doors! #FakeElevator
This one was just ok. A bit confusing with all the characters and the story, and the acting was a bit dated. But it was entertaining enough. I just watched Mildred Pierce yesterday. That one was really good.
That bleach blonde mouse must have been the only actress in Hollywood during this time, either that, or her dad was the producer or director. Meh.It doesn't help that she plays the role of a clingy, needy dish-rag, here.
Good movie, though.
Great movie except for Pamela Britton, who unlike her beloved Mrs. Brown on "My Favorite Martian" is incredibly annoying as the girlfriend here, if it came down to it, I'd take the poison!
Boy ha he's 32😅
Once minutos y pico de película... Me están pareciendo demasiado tontos los "tropiezos" en el hotel... No puedo ver más...
I don't understand why this film has such a high reputation - it makes almost zero sense and the dialogue is stodgy at best. It peps along once the lead has consulted two specialists over a bit of a hangover, but then gets mired in his "romance" with his tedious secretary. And don't get started on the swannee whistles every time he sees a girl he fancies...
I decided the colorization was just too awful. Like looking a the living dead after escaping from the clutches of a mortician who didn't understand how to use makeup . . . Oh well
Change the name of this film to Edmund O'Brien slaps around women
