Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/4 --
Krasker's camera reveals a dank, matte, defeated city - so dully vivid as to be a character unto itself - except that this Vienna becomes something altogether different seen at night or underground.

Boston Globe
Rating: 4/4 --
Reed and screenwriter Graham Greene let the story unfold slowly and deliberately, like the cigarette smoke that floats around the characters, and keep us guessing at every step.

Seattle Times
Rating: 5/5 --
This is a film which does away with such cretinous inanity as offering up goodies and baddies, instead presenting its cast of characters as doing things which they believe to be good, but are not seen as such through the eyes of observers.

Little White Lies
Welles could play the most seductive of villains; his amoral, charismatic Harry Lime is one of his most unforgettable.
Premiere
"The Third Man" is important not just because of its technique but because of its theme ...

...Carol Reed's gripping 1949 thriller was proclaimed as the best British film of all time by the British Film Institute...
Total Film
[With] Orson Welles, giving an extraordinarily charismatic late-breaking cameo turn of the sort that even Marlon Brando in Apocalypse Now couldn’t match.

Product Description:
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.
