The Turn is a 2012 short film, written and directed by Christian Krohn. It stars James Phelps in one of his first roles since playing Fred Weasley in the Harry Potter film series,[1] and also Tim Bentinck.

The film is about faded comedian Stanley Kovack (Tim Bentinck). After a lull in success, he becomes desperate and steals the notes and material from a young, upcoming comedian Morris Talliver (James Phelps), whilst they are performing together at The Comedy Club, London. The success that follows is in stark contrast to the fortunes of Morris, whose career takes a resulting downward turn.[2]
