What happens

I'll Get You for This (released in the US as Lucky Nick Cain) is a 1951 British thriller film by Joseph M. 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. 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. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
