Told he's been fatally poisoned and has only a few days to live, Frank Bigelow spends his last 24 hours - the entire movie - trying to find out who murdered him and why. In D.O.A., noir superstar Edmond O'Brien plays Bigelow with his customary manic energy. Fast-paced, suspenseful, improved not a whit by the 1988 remake.
