We’re nearing the end of our Classic Noir themed month we’re calling THE LEFT HAND ENDEAVOR and it’s just banger after banger each week and our last week is no different. Today’s classic noir is one that might show up on several “Best Movie” top 20 lists. One of the few classic noir that seem to shine beyond it’s genre. Chock full of stunning, shadowy, shots seared into the annals of film history and appreciation. A western writer by the name of “Holly” strolls into Vienna not long past the end of WWII to meet an old friend who he discovers is dead. The case seems to be officially closed but Holly finds conflicting information outside of the official narrative of Harry Lime’s death. Meanwhile, Lime’s girlfriend is fraught with her own issues but is bonding with Holly over their mutual connection with Harry. The interaction has Holly smitten with his dead friend’s gal but is she down? Of course, we’re talking about Carol Reed’s 1949 classic “THE THIRD MAN” starring Joseph Cotton, Valli, Trevor Howard and Orson Welles as the ultimate irredeemable charmer that appears in the movie for, maybe, 7 minutes. Half of that because he didn’t want to do the sewer scenes. You better believe we got a link for it. Hope it still works: https://archive.org/details/the-third...
