Third Man, The (British Lion Film, 1949). British One Sheet (27  40 )
Third Man, The (British Lion Film, 1949). British One Sheet (27" 40"). Carol Reed's "The Third Man" is one of the more odd successes among international films of the late 1940s. Here was a quirky movie from England, with Hitchcock-like touches and an odd sense of humor, that manages to be grim, and wryly witty, while retaining a good bit of author Graham Greene's sensibility. Producer Alexander Korda wanted Nodl Coward to play the mysterious Harry Lime, but, once Orson Welles was cast in the part, the movie became a testament to his presence and impact; he's only on screen for about a quarter of the movie, but he's the actor that everyone remembers. Offered here is the original British one sheet to this classic British post-WWII thriller. Very Fine+ on Linen. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances.
