Subject: RE: BS: what are your favourite movies?
D.O.A. - hmmm, maybe was 1948 or '49. Good noir, whenever it was made. Anyone know what year? Edmund O'Brien plays a man poisoned - murdered -while on a trip to San Francisco, and while he has little time left to live until the incurable poison sets in, he searches for his murderer and the motive. Great jazz scene in a fictional waterfront bar, "The Fisherman," and some humorous scenes early on where he ogles attractive women in a hotel lobby, and a slide whistle goes off on the soundtrack.
