Kino Lorber have revealed that they are preparing a Blu-ray release of William Dieterle's The Turning Point (1952), starring William Holden, Edmond O'Brien, Alexis Smith, Tom Tully, and Ed Begley. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on September 20.

Description: When crusading district attorney John Conroy (Edmond O'Brien, The Hitch-Hiker) is tasked to crack down on a powerful crime syndicate, he recruits his no-nonsense newspaperman pal Jerry McKibbon (Holden), his sweetheart Mandy (Alexis Smith, Conflict) and his grizzled detective father (Tom Tully, Ruby Gentry). But unbeknownst to the younger Conroy, the elder 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 Neville Brand (D.O.A.) with masterful black-and-white cinematography by Lionel Lindon (Alias Nick Beal), The Turning Point is a thrilling portrait of political corruption that leads to a shocking conclusion.
