Eureka Entertainment will release Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s intense racial drama, NO WAY OUT, for the first time ever on Blu-ray, and in its UK home entertainment debut, as part of The Masters of Cinema Series on 11 June 2018.
Starring Richard Widmark and Sidney Poitier, NO WAY OUT is an electrifying film-noir about a doctor whose ethics are put to the test when he comes into conflict with a racist criminal.
Dr. Luther Brooks (Poitier) is assigned to treat two prisoners, the Biddle brothers, who were shot during an attempted robbery.
Ray Biddle (Widmark) refuses to be treated by the black doctor, and when his brother John dies under Luther’s care, Ray becomes consumed with vengeance.
His anger and hatred ignites racial tensions within the community, and events quickly spiral out of control.
