The Third Man
Carol Reed
Directed by:
1949


Yeah this film is pretty good. I feel like I don't have much to say about it other than to watch it. The dark visuals combined with the unique cinematography that includes Dutch angles, great lighting, other odd angles and more makes for a very attractive film. The drama and characters make the story come alive, with all three main characters being well fleshed-out and real. I loved some of the conversations that were had between Orson Welle's character and others, those scenes were probably the highlight of the film for me. I also enjoyed the character arc of Martins. The last scene is iconic in its own right and for good reason, its a beautifully done scene that encapsulates the entire movie very well. Overall, a good crime thriller with some great themes and characters.
