This classic noir mystery, from the team of Carol Reed and Graham Greene, is generally considered to be the best filmwork of both of these estimable talents. THE THIRD MAN features Joseph Cotten as Holly Martins, a pulp novelist who has come to post-WWII Vienna with the promise of work from his friend, Harry Lime (Orson Welles). When he finds that Lime has just been killed in a questionable car accident, he decides to remain in the city to investigate his friend's demise.
Cast:
"...The film's disenchanted romanticism exerts an irresistible charm. Nearly half a century on, that charm hasn't diminished in the least..."
-- Philip Kemp
, (Sight and Sound)
"...THE THIRD MAN provides superior roles for all its lead actors..." -- Kenneth Turan , (Los Angeles Times) "...One of the greatest of all films, and one of the most entertaining....It is one of the few films every movie lover absolutely must see..." -- Roger Ebert , (Chicago Sun-Times) "...The greatest of the foreign-based film noir dramas..." -- Mike Clark , (USA Today) "...Carol Reed's gripping 1949 thriller was proclaimed as the best British film of all time by the British Film Institute..." -- Simon Brew , (Total Film) "Lime is a character of volatile complexity..." -- Premiere Staff , (Premiere) "Welles could play the most seductive of villains; his amoral, charismatic Harry Lime is one of his most unforgettable." -- Andy Webster , (Premiere) "[A]n unassailable classic....[Welles'] speech comparing the ruthless Borgia family and the peace-loving Swiss still raises goose bumps." -- Grade: A -- Chris Nashawaty , (Entertainment Weekly)
