GREEN ROOM

Here's another thriller from Jules Dassin - we screened Rififi (1955) in September last year. Exiled from the USA, Dassin first went to London where he made Night and the City. Filmed on location in London and at Shepperton Studios, it gives a fascinating view of the sleazy underbelly of the capital just after the war. Richard Widmark is Harry Fabian - full of great ideas that turn out badly. Mostly, he's just running from the men he's crossed on the way. His latest plan is to become London's premier wrestling promoter. But taking on the infamous Kristo family proves a step too far.
