You can’t leave out “The Third Man”, that brilliant morality tale set in a smashed, decaying Vienna. I guarantee the ferris wheel scene will have you on the edge of your seat.

I was thinking of that one myself. I just saw it over Christmas while deployed at a navy base overseas. I was stunned by the artwork of the sewer chase.

Hi, popdonnelly:
Orson Welles loved his entrances into a film. The Third Man has possibly the best as a smiling Harry Lime is revealed from the shadows.
Great writing as well when Harry leaves Holly at the base of the Ferris Wheel after his famous off hand 'Cookoo Clock' comment. Which Welles ad libbed off the cuff.
Jack.
