Carol Reed's
The Third Man
is an absolutely brilliant slice of
film noir
set in the post-war occupied city of Vienna. It is a film in which a revelation leads novelist Holly Martins (Joseph Cotten) into a downward spiral of intrigue and deceit, that climaxes with an exciting chase through the city's sewers. Paper from this film is highly sought after, as many consider it to be one of the greatest films ever made. Fans will be especially excited for this blood red French grande with artwork by Claire .

Carol Reed
(nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) English Vienna Austria crime film noir murder mystery mistaken identity thriller ("Cats loved him... And so did Women!"; "What a chase he led them!"; "He'll put you in a dither with his Zither"; based on a story "by Graham Greene"; "Hunted by men... Sought by women!"; "Presented by
Alexander Korda
and
David O. Selznick
"; about a man going to visit his old friend in post-War Vienna, and when he gets there, he discovers that the friend is dead, or is he?) starring
Joseph Cotten
,
Alida Valli
(billed as "Valli"),
Orson Welles
(even though Welles only appears in a small portion of the movie, he dominates it!),
Trevor Howard
,
Bernard Lee
,
Paul Horbiger
, and Hedwig Bleibtreu. Note that the musical score for this movie was by Austrian zither musician Anton Karas, and it was so memorable that they even made a tagline about it ("He'll put you in a dither with his Zither"). Also note that this was intended to be the first of several movies with producers David Selznick and
Alexander Korda
, but the men clashed frequently during the making of the movie, and they never worked together again. Also note that
Orson Welles
clashed with director
Carol Reed
, and reportedly, he wrote much of his character's dialog in the movie, and made other contributions to the script that likely drove Reed crazy!
