The Breaking Point is a discreet film torn right from the fiction of Ernest Hemingway. This 1950 drama made by Oscar Winning Director, Michael Curtiz (CASABLANCA) deals with the usual ideas and themes of the great writer and how he looked upon Fascism! Though not a truly memorable film like other features taken from Hemingway e. g. (For Whom The Bell Tolls), it plays out fairly well with John Garfield, who was soon to be blacklisted and the beautiful Patricia Neal. It was very unfortunate that Garfield, who was a very big star, would be dead within a few years. It was a real tragedy for the Hollywood community... both his blacklisting and ultimate death from a bad heart.
