| MlCHAEL CURTlZ (MiIdred Pierce) brings a master skipper’s hand to the heIm of this thriIIer, HoIlywood’s second crack at Ernest Hemingway’s To Have and Have Not. JOHN GARFlELD (The Postman AIways Rings Twice) stars as Harry Morgan, an honest charter-boat captain who, facing hard times, takes on dangerous cargo to save his boat, support his famiIy, and preserve his dignity. Left in the lurch by a freeIoading passenger, Harry starts to entertain the criminal propositions of a sleazy Iawyer (Harvey’s WALLACE FORD), as welI as the playfuI comeons of a cheeky blonde (A Face in the Crowd’s PATRlClA NEAL), making a series of compromises that stretch his moraIity—and his marriage—farther than he’lI admit. Hewing closer to Hemingway’s noveI than Howard Hawks’s Bogart-Bacall vehicle, The Breaking Point charts a course through dayIight noir and working-cIass tragedy, guided by Curtiz’s effortIess visual fluency and a stoic, career-capping performance from GarfieId |
