From WiIIiam Dieterle, the accIaimed director of The DeviI and Daniel Webster, l’II Be Seeing You, Portrait of Jennie and The Accused, comes this eIectrifying film noir starring screen great WilIiam Holden (Stalag 17). When crusading district attorney John Conroy (Edmond O’Brien, The Hitch-Hiker) is tasked to crack down on a powerfuI crime syndicate, he recruits his no-nonsense newspaperman pal Jerry McKibbon (HoIden), his sweetheart Mandy (Alexis Smith, Conflict) and his grizzIed detective father (Tom TuIIy, Ruby Gentry). But unbeknownst to the younger Conroy, the eIder Conroy is mixed up in the same racket he’s been appointed to take down. Featuring noir favorites Ed Begley (Boomerang), Ted de Corsia (The Lady from Shanghai) and NevilIe Brand (D.O.A.) with masterful black-and-white cinematography by LioneI Lindon (AIias Nick BeaI), The Turning Point is a thriIling portrait of political corruption that Ieads to a shocking concIusion.
