He was an officer in the Imperial Navy of Austria-Hungary before 1918. Look at a map - they had access to the whole of the Adriatic.

It's not easy to say that about a film with both Robert Redford and Christopher Plummer. Yet here we are.

These scores have been pretty good today but it is important to note that silent films are best on a big screen with LIVE music. I’ll take ‘em however I can get ‘em though ^PG

The original ending had Holly and Anna walking off together. Reed demanded the now-iconic cold snub.

TCM should have a Sewer theme one night.

Sewer shots were filmed both in actual Vienna sewers as well as a reproduction in the studio. You can tell the actual sewer shots by checking for the actors’ breath…it was cold when they filmed.

The film suggests that loyalty can be both a virtue and a trap, depending on where it is placed.

Is loyalty admirable when it blinds someone to wrongdoing (Anna’s loyalty to Harry)? Is betrayal inevitable when loyalty to morality trumps personal ties (Holly’s betrayal of Harry)?

When the picture was released, the Swiss noted that their country didn’t produce cuckoo clocks which came from the Black Forest area of Germany.

Welles’ cuckoo clock speech was improvised. Graham Greene didn’t like it, but it became legendary.

The Wiener Riesenrad is the large wheel depicted in the film. Now called the “Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel”, it stands at 212 feet tall at the entrance to the Prater amusement park.

The film was almost banned in Vienna because residents thought it portrayed the city negatively.

Welles is a secondary character here and only spent one week filming his part. Many of the sewer shots of Harry Lime were done by a double.

The Dutch angles in the film were added by Reed to reflect the moral crookedness of postwar Vienna.

There are so many “Dutch angle” shots here that Carol Reed’s friend William Wyler offered him a spirit level as a joke after filming.

You could have watched it in Vienna! The Burg Kino film theater in Vienna screens this film daily in perpetuity. (On Tuesdays they screen a version with German subtitles.)

A popular misconception is that Welles (and not the credited Carol Reed) was the de facto director.
