Description

The Third Man (Selznick, 1949). Three Sheet (41" X 81").
In this classic thriller, novelist Holly Martins (Joseph Cotten) arrives in Vienna just in time to find out that his friend, Harry Lime (Orson Welles) has died. As it turns out, however, Lime is neither dead nor the upstanding citizen Martins believed him to be. With that revelation, the film spirals deeper and deeper into a bizarre web of intrigue and deceit, climaxing in a harrowing chase through the city's sewers. This striking three sheet had a tear in the left border, and fold wear with crossfold separation and chips, but expert professional restoration has rendered these slight imperfections virtually invisible. Fine+ on Linen.
