About this product
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.

A prison psychiatrist (the legendary Sidney Poitier) is charged with treating a hate-filled young man (Bobby Darin), and as he probes the patient's nightmares, he realizes that the boy's twisted visions masks a lust for unspeakable violence.
As he toured war-torn Europe in 1944, a noted conductor (Charlton Heston) found himself-and his entire orchestra-waylaid by German troops. Fortunately, the Nazi C.O. (Maximilian Schell) is a classical music buff, and desirous of a command performance. With no promise that they'll live for an encore, can the trapped maestro finagle an out? Leslie Nielsen, Anton Diffring, Kathryn Hays co-star; performances by the Los Angeles Philharmonic. 107 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
