D.O.A. (1950) DVD: DOA 1950 DVD |
| Product Description : This DVD set has the classic Edmund O'Brien playing an accountant who is out to find his own murderer. Experience this classic film noire, one of the true classics of the genre. D.O.A. reflects the photographic roots of director Rudolph Mate. He compiled an impressive resume as a cinematographer in Hollywood from 1935 until turning to directing in 1947. Mate and director of photography Ernest Lazlo captured the lighting, locations, and atmosphere of brooding darkness expertly. While Dimitri Tiomkin was one of Hollywood's most renowned film composers who linked up with pantheon directors such as Alfred Hitchcock, and Frank Capra to create some of the most memorable film scores in movie history. Winner of four Oscars and nominated for many others, Tiomkin's D.O.A. score is integral to the melancholy mood of the film. Edmund O'Brien was a veteran of many film noirs (Act of Murder, 711 Ocean Drive, The Hitchhiker, among others) and won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 1954 for his portrayal of a frenetic press agent in The Barefoot Contessa. |
