    Movie, The Third Man

    Just finished watching this classic movie. For those who don't know it, right, here is a plot summary!
    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041959/
    An out of work pulp fiction novelist, Holly Martins, arrives in a post war Vienna divided into sectors by the victorious allies, and where a shortage of supplies has lead to a flourishing black market. He arrives at the invitation of an ex-school friend, Harry Lime, who has offered him a job, only to discover that Lime has recently died in a peculiar traffic accident. From talking to Lime's friends and associates Martins soon notices that some of the stories are inconsistent, and determines to discover what really happened to Harry Lime.
    A classic flim noir, it is well worth the view!
    It also actually has a bit of eye candy, from Garands in the beginning to enfield and webley revolvers at the end!

    Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

    You can go to Vienna and take the "Harry Lime tour" of the sewers. Follow the path of Harry and the police and only for 20.00 US. Leaves from in front of the Opera house at 1pm....

    Oh, NO! It's a Graham Greene creation. Don't forget Our Man in Havana. Greene offers such absurdity and plots twists as to induce vertigo.
