Mein Herr, Ballon? (from The Third Man, 1949)
The Third Man (1949) - ... If one of those dots stopped moving forever
________________________________________________
When writer Holly Martins arrives in Vienna to visit his old friend Harry Lime, Lime is being buried. However, Martins discovers that Lime is alive and well and staged his death so that he could pursue his black market business in stolen penicillin.
In Carol Reed's classic crime film, based on a story by Graham Greene, destroyed Vienna is the true protagonist. Cameraman Robert Krasker expressively filmed the countless ruins, dark alleys and, in the gripping finale, even the city's sewage system. The atmospheric density is complemented by Anton Karas' world-famous zither theme and Orson Welles' brilliant delivery.
