Point Blanks hero, Walker (Lee Marvin), strides through Los Angeles with the steely stare of a stone-cold killer, or perhaps a ghost. Betrayed by his wife and his best friend, who gun him down point-blank and leave him for dead after a successful heist, Walker blasts his way up the criminal food chain in a quest for revenge. Did he survive the shooting, did he return from the grave, or is it all a dying dream?

The question is left in the air in John Boorman's modern film noir, a brutal revenge thriller based on Richard Stark's novel, set in the impersonal concrete and steel canyons of Los Angeles and the eerily empty cells of Alcatraz. Walker kills without remorse, guided by shadowy "informant" Keenan Wynn, whose own agenda is carefully concealed and assisted by Angie Dickinson as he desperately searches for someone, anyone, who can just give him his money. But if Walker is an extreme incarnation of the revenge-driven noir anti-hero, the modern syndicate has been transformed into a world of paper jungles and corporate businessmen: an alienating concept for the two-fisted, gun-wielding gangster.

Boorman creates a hard, austere look for the film and scatters flashes of painful memory throughout the story, grafting the New Wave onto old genres with confidence and style. Haunting and brutal, Point Blank remains one of the most distinctive crime thrillers ever made. --Sean Axmaker, Amazon.com
