Night And The City.

Harry Fabian (Widmark) is an ambitious American hustler and con man operating in London. He maintains a fractured relationship with the honest Mary Bristol (Tierney), nightclub owner and businessman Phil Nosseross (Sullivan), and Helen (Withers), who is Phil's estranged wife. While attempting a con at a wrestling match, Fabian witnesses Gregorius (Zbyszko), a veteran Greek wrestler, arguing with his son Kristo (Lom), who has organised the fight, and effectively controls all wrestling in London. Gregorius dies minutes later in his arms from exhaustion.
