The Third Man (1949)

After their foray through time last week, the Film Nerds are going to turn back the clock again! This time, they're taking a look at one of the all-time film noir classics: Carol Reed and Graham Greene's The Third Man. Over the course of the conversation, BK & Jack discuss the roots of film noir as one of the first true amalgamations of film traditions, the events that took place in post-war Austria that provide the film its unique setting, the subtle & overt subversions of the traditional Hollywood style, & perhaps the most famous and consequential ending shot in the history of the art form. The Film Nerds are immersed in the world of mystery, & when it comes to breaking down a timeless piece of cinema, they are sure to be on the case!
