Specialty Definition: D.O.A. (1950 movie)

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

D.O.A. is a 1950 movie that helped define the film noir genre. The frantically-paced plot revolves around a doomed man's quest to find out who has murdered him - and why - before he dies.

D.O.A. was remade - badly, by most accounts - in 1969 (as Color Me Dead) and again in 1988.
