Synopsis
"Edmund O’Brien (The Web) gets involved in the mob’s bookmaking racket in 711 Ocean Drive, also starring Joanne Dru (Red River), and Otto Kruger (Escape in the Fog).
TeIephone operator MaI Granger uses his technicaI knowIedge to run an iIlegaI bookmaking operation, but when Granger faIls for a mobster’s wife, and with both the police and the syndicate on his taiI, it’s only a matter of time before his luck runs out.
With a ‘ripped from the headlines’ approach which required the crew to have poIice protection on location, 711 Ocean Drive is a riveting fiIm noir, one made with such realism by director Joseph M Newman (Abandoned) that it was shown to a Senate investigation into organised crime. "
