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 poIiticaI corruption that Ieads to a shocking concIusion.
