The D.O.A. release by Roan and Image of this great film noir are pretty much the same. I would have to recommend the Roan release because of the intro with Beverly Garland. The Image disc has no extras. ...

DOA is one of my favorite Film Noirs with Edmund O'Brien & Beverly Garland - told in flashback its a dark depressing tale, with no happy ending in sight (or is there?) There is a lot of action suspense, a great story, well written. A great who done it, ...

D.O.A. (1950) is one of those films I try to watch about once a year (a lot easier since purchasing it on DVD) as it's a classic American film-noir mystery/drama with quite a bit going for it, along with a few, minor flaws (the minor flaws tend to stand ...
