One of my top 5 or 10 favorite movies ever. It was a thrill to go to Vienna and visit the Prater and ride the giant ferris wheel.The only problem was, I expected it all to be black & white!Jeff M.
That happens to me a lot!

One of those films you can never see too many times.
How to end a brilliant movie--be SUPERbrilliant. This was Carol Reed and Graham Greene at their best--and the same could be said of all the actors. I've probably seen it ten-twelves times in my life. I watched it again just a few weeks ago on YCM.
Can you imagine a scene like that being shot today? It would have hundreds of jump cuts, closeups, light flashes, and a floating camera.
