A landmark thriller about pulp-fiction writer Holly Martins (Joseph Cotton) who arrives in dark, menacing post-WWII Vienna at the invitation of his friend Harry Lime (Orson Welles). But when Holly's told that Harry was killed in a sudden accident, he decides to investigate. The deeper Holly digs, the more bizarre the mystery gets, spiraling towards the classic noir climax that's captured our cinematic imagination since the film's release.

Wikipedia
The Third Man is a 1949 British film noir directed by Carol Reed and starring Joseph Cotten, Alida Valli, Orson Welles, and Trevor Howard. The screenplay was written by novelist Graham Greene based on Greene's novella of the same name, which was written in preparation for writing the screenplay, and was published in 1950. Anton Karas wrote the notable score, which used only the zither; its title cut topped the international music charts in 1950.
