The Third Man
1949 | 104 min. | B&W | DCP
Directed by: Carol Reed
Cast: Joseph Cotten, Alida Valli, and Orson Welles
Where is Harry Lime? That’s the central question guiding this pulpy British noir, which follows Joseph Cotten as he searches for an old friend (played by Cotten’s real-life old friend Orson Welles). All the elements of a bona fide classic are here: a remarkable cast, stunning cinematography, and a score so unforgettable that it sent the zither roaring to the top of the charts.
Touch of Evil
1958 | 95 min. | B&W | DCP
Directed by: Orson Welles
Cast: Charlton Heston, Janet Leigh, and Orson Welles
Orson Welles’ stunner is often considered the “greatest B-movie of all time,” a label that fits this pulpy, brilliant masterpiece just fine. Charlton Heston plays a detective dealing with a double dose of murder and corruption in this stylish marvel.
