The Third Man - In the Footsteps of a Film Classic
The Third Man is the Best British Movie of the Century and one of the greatest classics of all time.
Even after 50 years of his death in the sewers of Vienna, Orson Welles' Harry
Lime still haunts the city. The scars of the war have long disappeared but
surprisingly, most of the locations of Carol Reed's 1949 film noir classic have
remained unchanged.
On this exciting tour follow us through the cobbled lanes and hidden courtyards of Old Vienna that inspired author Graham Greene, see the places where Harry Lime lived, appeared, disappeared and eventually died, and learn the fascinating story of how one of the all-time greatest films was made and what Vienna was like in the days of Allied occupation, Cold War espionage and the black market. And of course there is that famous zither music....
Recommended by 'Time Out' and other major Vienna guide books.
