Richard Widmark delivers one of his most enthralling performances as Harry Fabian, a small-time hustler scouring the rubble of a decimated London barely recovered from the ravages of WWII. Set amidst the tawdry night clubs, bars, and back streets of the city, the film focuses on Harry’s ambition to score big in the wrestling rackets and his eventual fate as the object of a murderous manhunt. In Night and the City, director Jules Dassin and director of photography Max Greene brilliantly fuse two styles of filmmaking, crossing the expressionist lighting and framing of film noir with the quasi-documentary location shooting he used for The Naked City (1948). We are pleased to present a newly struck print of this classic film courtesy of Twentieth Century Fox.
