Sinopsis: Viena, 1947. El norteamericano Holly Martins, un escritor de novelas policíacas, llega a la capital austriaca cuando la ciudad está dividida en cuatro zonas ocupadas por los aliados de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Holly llega reclamado por un amigo de la infancia, Harry Lime, que le ha prometido trabajo. Pero el mismo día de su llegada coincide con el entierro de Harry, quien ha sido atropellado por un coche. El jefe de la policía militar británica le insinúa que su amigo se había mezclado en la trama del mercado negro. (FILMAFFINITY)

"Una leyenda del cine (...) Elegida en 1999 como la mejor aportación británica a la historia del cine. Es eso, y con mayúscula: pura historia, resultado de un genial cruce de azares" (Ángel Fdez. Santos: Diario El País)
Reunión en Viena.
La famosa novela de Graham Greene convertida en Obra Maestra del Cine. El escritor americano Holly Martins llega a Viena para encontrarse con su amigo Harry Lime, pero al llegar se entera de que Harry ha muerto atropellado por un camión.
La viena de posguerra sirve de escenario a una trama apasionante y sombría de intrigas políticas, corrupción y asesinatos. Carol Reed exprime la novela con gran sentido narrativo, subrayando la atmósfera de misterio a través de una fotografía proverbial. Geniales son los simbólicos diálogos entre el bien y el mal representados por los personajes. E inolvidables son la escenas de la persecución en las cloacas y el altivo caminar de Alida Valli al compás de cítara de Anton Karas (
DeCine21).
AMG SYNOPSIS: In this Cold War spy classic, Holly Martins (Joseph Cotten), a third-rate American pulp novelist, arrives in postwar Vienna, where he has been promised a job by his old friend Harry Lime (Orson Welles). Upon his arrival, Martins discovers that Lime has been killed in a traffic accident, and that his funeral is taking place immediately. At the graveside, Martins meets outwardly affable Major Calloway (Trevor Howard) and actress Anna Schmidt (Alida Valli), who is weeping copiously. When Calloway tells Martins that the late Harry Lime was a thief and murderer, the loyal Martins is at first outraged. Gradually, he discovers not only that Calloway was right but also that the man lying in the coffin in the film's early scenes was not Harry Lime at all--and that Lime is still very much alive (he was the mysterious "third man" at the scene of the fatal accident). Thus the stage is set for the movie's famous climactic confrontation in the sewers of Vienna--and the even more famous final shot, in which Martins pays emotionally for doing "the right thing." Written by Graham Greene, The Third Man is an essential classic, made even more so by the insistent zither music of Anton Karas. The film is currently available in both an American and British release version; the American print, with an introduction by Joseph Cotten, is slightly shorter than the British version, which is narrated by director Carol Reed. Nominated for several Academy Awards, The Third Man won Best Cinematography for Robert Krasker. -- Hal Erickson
AMG REVIEW: Carol Reed's The Third Man is one of the odder successes among international films of the late 1940s: at a time when movies were supposedly getting dulled-down, in keeping with audience sensibilities, here was a quirky movie from England, with Hitchcock-like touches and an odd sense of humor, that manages to be grim, topical, and wryly witty, while retaining, even augmenting, a good bit of author Graham Greene's sensibility. For all the film's virtues, its making was a tale of compromises turned into inspiration. Producer Alexander Korda wanted Noël Coward to play the mysterious Harry Lime, but, once Orson Welles was cast in the part, the movie became a testament to his presence and impact; he's only on screen for about a quarter of the movie, but he's the actor that everyone remembers. In fact, Welles was off shooting another movie, reporting to The Third Man only late in the shooting, and he was doubled for many scenes: that was Carol Reed's assistant, future Goldfinger director Guy Hamilton, in the black trench coat running down Vienna's darkened streets, and those were director Reed's fingers reaching through the sewer grating at the chase's end. Recasting Joseph Cotten's Holly Martins as an American in turn allowed Greene to bring to the screen for the first time his antipathy toward Americans and their bright-eyed, bushy-tailed innocence in approaching the world's problems, a theme that would manifest itself even more directly in relation to Vietnam in The Quiet American. -- Bruce Eder
