#57: The Third Man (1949)


Emily says:

This British film-noir about an American who arrives in Venice to find that his friend who invited him has recently died is a satisfying mystery with a good plot twist at the ending. I enjoyed watching the main character, Holly Martins, a pulp fiction writer, be misunderstood to be a great American author.

I wasn't crazy about Martins' love-interest, Anna Schmidt, and found her character to be a bit lacking, and I'm not sure exactly why this movie made it onto the AFI's list since I'm pretty sure it is British, but it was fun to watch and a great mystery film.
