Movie #706 .........................."Turning Point"

Movie #706 "Turning Point" is a William Holden picture i couldn't remember seeing before so I streamed this the other night --- this is a different picture for Holden --- he is secondary, he doesn't get the girl (oops, don't want to give anything away)and he doesn't take his shirt off ---- i guess journalists didn't do that back in the day --- anyway, this was way predictable and I just watched it to the end because I'm such a Holden fan. I don't recommend this for your classic film to see this week --- there are so many so much better, even on the same subject! I give it 3 out of 5 stars. The Turning Point1952NR81 minutes Is John Conroy's police officer father, Matt (Tom Tully), on the wrong side of the law? John, a prosecutor trying to rid his town of crime, hopes not, but newsman Jerry McKibbon (William Holden) says Matt has been running around with mobster Harrigan (Ted de Corsia). But Jerry can't be fully trusted either, considering he's got a thing for John's gal pal, Amanda (Alexis Smith). William Dieterle directs this noirish drama.
