Pressure Point

“The boiling point of two men who mutinied against the world and each other!”

The Doctor (Sidney Poitier), a Black prison psychiatrist during World War II, wants to do his job properly, which means giving every inmate the same patient hearing. His newest case is the Patient (Bobby Darin), an American Nazi sympathizer whose bigotry is aimed straight at the man treating him. Hubert Cornfield keeps the sessions in close quarters, and the Doctor has to decide how much of himself he can keep out of the room.
