1)When Nienor and Turin find out the truth about each other, that's when the curse is fulfilled. I would call that the climax, from the dragon's revelation to Nienor through Turin's suicide.

2)Turin was lying to test Mablung when he said Nienor was brown as a berry-- he wanted to be absolutely sure that Mablung was talking about the woman Turin knew as his wife, so he pretended to think she was brown as a berry to see if Mablung was sure that Nienor was blonde-- when Mablung corrected him with the right description Turin became sure that they were talking about the same person. So then Turin was finally convinced he'd married his sister, and he despaired. Up until then he was hoping there was some mistake.

Turin himself was tall and had black hair. I think he took after his mother. He was stubborn like her too.
