The Third Man (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]Most Graham Greene materials brought to the screen are good and this is no exception. One caveat is to try to get a British print rather than the American print. The American cuts some scenes that are important. Anton Karas' zither score is unusual but really adds to the film once you get used to it. The scene at the top of the ferris wheel is marvelous. It reminds me of the Devil tempting Christ...

The Third Man (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]Excellent film noir, one of the best ever made. Great script and terrific performances by Joseph Cotten, Vali, Trevor Howard and especially Orson Welles. The cinematography gives the right mood, and no way could this movie have been made years later in color. The zither music is unique, unfortgettable but fitting.

The Third Man (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]First-rate story and great characters; eminently quotable dialogue; a good, twisty plot; gorgeous and dark location shooting, some of which is the essence of noir; and a catchy zither score.

The Third Man (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]I can't say how enjoyable this movie was. Orson Welles appearance from the shadows is truly genius. The use of lighting in this B&W film was the best I have ever seen. Advertisement
