if they'd dropped the comedy and melodrama this would have been a better Film Noir
D.O.A. follows a classic Film Noir trope of a doomed man. Frank Bigelow (Edmond O’Brien) is poisoned and tries to find out what happened to him. There are some non-Noir elements however which really detract from the story.<br /><br />The movie starts with Bigelow going to the police to report a homicide, his own impending death. This is some classic Noir. The leads in these stories often feel doomed and Bigelow is literally dying. On the other hand he goes on vacation to San Francisco and they throw in some comedy which is definitely not part of the genre. He also has a love affair with his secretary who wants to marry him. She calls him over and over throughout the movie which gets more and more melodramatic. That’s supposed to highlight what Bigelow is going to lose, but it gets tedious after a while. The San Francisco part just doesn’t fit with the rest of the story. If they’d dropped those two parts this would have been a much better film.<br /><br />It makes me a bit disappointed overall. D.O.A. is considered one of the all time great Noir’s. It could’ve fulfilled that hype but just falls short.<br />C
