(1949) The Third Man.
THRILLER/ SUSPENSE/ DRAMA.
Opposite to most of what Hitchcock had done because of it's stance with the bad guy, in this case it's the Harry Lime character and a standout perfomance played by Orson Welles. Novelist Holly Martinsn (Joseph Cotten) visits war torn Berlin only to assume that his old friend Lime is dead only to discover that he is not quite dead yet, leaving him with so many questions and dilemmas! This film is best known for it's use of actual locales during the war, as well as the ending that may have reinvented endings in movie history!
4/4.
