The bleak 1950 noir 'D.O.A.' is a classic nihilistic drama as well as a police thriller. Who plays the man who has been murdered with a slow-acting poison and is desperately seeking his killer?

Edmond O'Brien was respected in Hollywood circles. He conversed intelligently and drank heavily, and he gave everything he had during every performance. He even was a magician, having been coached when he was young by his kindly neighbor, Harry Houdini.
