The Third Man

“One great scene after another! One great shot after another! I’ve seen it 50 times and it’s still magic.”—Roger Ebert

Don’t miss the first major restoration of this film noir, one of cinema’s greatest classics! Joseph Cotten plays a pulp writer who arrives in postwar Vienna to meet up with old friend Harry Lime (Orson Welles) and finds himself drawn into a world of corruption. Welles makes one of the most memorable star entrances ever and added the famous “cuckoo clock” speech to Graham Greene’s original script. Winner of the Academy Award for Best Cinematography and the Grand Prix at Cannes, The Third Man is the only film on both the American and British Film Institutes’ top 100 lists of the greatest American and British films (coming in at #57 and #1 respectively).
