Pressure Point Blu-Ray

Pressure Point unfolds when a young psychiatrist (Peter Falk, TV's Columbo), exasperated by his failed attempts to help a black patient who hates whites asks to be reassigned. In a story told in flashback, his seasoned superior (Sidney Poitier, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner) recounts his own experience during the war when he treated a Nazi youth (Bobby Darin, Too Late Blues) who hated blacks. A dark tale told through stark black & white imagery courtesy of Academy Award-winning cinematographer Ernest Haller (Hell's Five Hours, Mildred Pierce, Gone with the Wind), Pressure Point features fine tuned performances under the assured direction of Hubert Cornfield (The Night of the Following Day) from a screenplay co-written by Cornfield and S. Lee Pogostin based on a story by Robert M. Lindner.
