“One great scene after another! One great shot after another! I’ve seen it over 50 times and it’s still magic.”—Roger Ebert
This film noir classic directed by Carol Reed is back in a 4K digital restoration which was completed to celebrate the film’s 75th anniversary.
Holly Martins (Joseph Cotten), a writer of pulp Westerns, arrives in a bombed-out, post-war Vienna at the invitation of his childhood friend Harry Lime (Orson Welles) only to find him dead. Martins develops the ultimate conspiracy theory after learning of a “third man” present at the time of Harry’s death, butting up against interference from British police officer Major Calloway (Trevor Howard), and falling head-over-heels for Harry’s grief-stricken lover Anna (Alida Valli).
Winner of the Cannes Film Festival Grand Prix, Oscar-winner for Best Cinematography, and Oscar-nominated for Best Director, The Third Man is regarded as one of the greatest films ever made. 1949, U.K., 4K DCP, 104 minutes. Recommended for 14+
