Half a century after its opening, The Third Man remains an unquestioned masterpiece of film artistry and, for many, the greatest British movie ever made. Whether it is Harry Lime's magical first appearance or the celebrated cuckoo clock speech or the climactic chase through the sewers beneath Vienna or the haunting theme music of Anton Karas, the film contains some of the most memorable moments in screen history. Drawing on both contemporary documents and accounts of the people involved, In Search of The Third Man explores the many myths that over the years have grown around this extraordinary film, and seeks to unravel the facts from the fiction. .,."you'll want to read The Third Man...The story of the film's creation is as intriguing as the film itself" -Leonard Maltin, Playboy Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Thus, it is a major regret that Drazin somehow was unable to get his Austrian history and facts straight. The mistakes pile up faster than Harry Lime's victims. The author calls the Austrian currency Schillers instead of Schilling, a truly puzzling mistake as any educated Brit must have heard about shillings. The Austrian Civil War of 1934, for instance, was a battle between the Socialists/Labour and the Conservatives/Catholics, the two having been at each others' throats for multiple decades. The Communists, much highlighted by the author, played only a minor role. It is a safe assumption that any element about Vienna and Austria the author mentions might be incomplete, inaccurate or even totally misleading if not invented by the author. Perhaps this is an unintended tribute to Orson Welles famous line in the film about "Swiss" cuckoo clocks which is totally erroneous in every element. Recommended (with caution) for film buffs. ( )
