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 Mal Granger uses his technical knowledge to run an illegal bookmaking operation, but when Granger falIs 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 headIines’ approach which required the crew to have police protection on Iocation, 711 Ocean Drive is a riveting film noir, one made with such realism by director Joseph M Newman (Abandoned) that it was shown to a Senate investigation into organised crime. "
