Shadows of Noir

6 - The Third Man

Dan Episode 6

After a quick holiday break, we’re starting 2024 off right with the 1949 masterpiece, The Third Man. Join us as we first discuss film noir’s expansion beyond the borders of the United States in the latter half of the 1940s. Then explore the narrative structure, camerawork, lighting, acting performances, and musical score of The Third Man. We finish up by noting some differing perspectives on the film, and how it sits in relation to the classic era of film noir. Hope you enjoy!
