Newman starring George Raft, Coleen Gray, and Enzo Staiola. It was made from an adaptation by George Callahan and William Rose of James Hadley Chase's 1946 book of the same name.[1] The setting was shifted from Las Vegas in the novel to an Italian gambling resort.
It was one of the first productions by Romulus Films. Production was completed in 1950 but the film was not released until the following year.
The sets were designed by the art director Ralph W. Brinton. Established actresses Greta Gynt and Margot Grahame and future Irish star Constance Smith all make brief appearances.
Plot
American gambler Nick Cain (Raft) arrives at the town of San Paola, and befriends shoe-shine boy Toni (Staiola). He discovers he has been framed for the murder of an American Treasury agent. He escapes with Kay Wonderly (Gray) to an abandoned village, leaving her to hide out. Cain gets help from Massine (Goldner), whom he does not trust. He uncovers an international counterfeiting ring, members of which are responsible for the murder.

When Raft left for London in December it was announced that he would also make a second film for Kaufman, Montmare, about a Paris night club owner.[4][5]

Filming started in San Remo on April 24, 1950.[10] Grey later said the trip to make the film "was the highlight of my life."[11]

In January 1951 Kaufman signed a deal with 20th Century Fox for the latter to distribute.[13]
