Quick to receive the DVD.

It was easy to order and delivered quickly.
I haven't had the time to view the film yet.
trailer looks good.
I like that it was delivered quickly and easy to order.
Milestone film from John Ford...One of his earliest talkies as well as the film debuts of Spencer Tracy and Humphrey Bogart..get a copy just for that !
A great film. Typical Bryan Brown. He is at home in his outback environment and is the star of the show..
Durbin has never been popular in Germany. I' m glad to have her (re) discovered ....
Great surprise - McCrea never touches a gun.
As i remembered it as a kid
Very poor quality dvd. Very disappointed with the sound and picture.
Great condition of product and is as described
Enjoyable film. Typical Bryan Brown acting. Simple plot with plenty of expected humor. Co-actrice was well chosen
This is a classic and perculuiar Aussie story, it is a shame that all the leading stars were imports rather than some local talents. And, to add insult to injury changing the name of the movie to suit the USA audience is a fundamentally disgusting
File was perfect. Seamless, easy purchase, reasonable price, quick delivery. What a great service.
The downloads for the 70's Boney TV series are as described, not great quality but perfectly adequate given they are so old. So thanks for that. It is good to know there is an archive of old series.
I had to go back and ask for some to be redelivered, as some were duplicates and some were missing. But eventually I got the set.
Excellent Movie.
Michael Greyeyes is a great actor.
Excellent. Thank you.
A movie ahead of its time
The 3rd Man, is a movie that looks and feels not like a movie of the 40s, but like a neo-noir of the late 60s/early 70s. This wonderful example of classic noir is one of the all time greatest films. It combines amazing visuals, sounds, dialogue, and acting to tell a thrilling story and comment about the atmosphere after WWII.
Of all the movies during the studio era (pre-1960ish), there are three movies with cinematography that always stick out in my mind: Gregg Toland’s work in Citizen Kane, Russel Mety’s work in Touch of Evil, and Robert Krasker’s work in The Third Man (all starring Orson Welles funny enough). I just recently saw a restored 35mm version of The Third Man. The crisp black and white visuals of a bombed out Vienna are so breath-taking. Shadows are everywhere. The unique way Krasker tilts the camera in some shots adding to the disorientation of the plot. And who can forget the first close-up of Welles with the light from an apartment room above splashing onto his face; one of the great entrances in movie history (Lime gives his old friend a smile that only Welles could give).
The cinematography is backed by strong performances by Welles, Cotten, and Italian actress Vali. The writing of Greene is wonderful; you can see the plot twisting around Cotten tightly. But what makes The Third Man so great is its historical commentary (well not really historical since it was commenting on its own time, but to us it is historical). On one level The Third Man is a story of betrayal and corruption in a post-war, occupied Vienna. On the other hand, its giving the audience a glimpse of the mood of Europe after the great war. The uncertainty that the Cold War was bringing is evident through out the film; Cotten is constantly trying to figure out who to trust. Vienna is on the frontier of the new communist bloc (we even see the communists infiltrating Vienna trying to bring Vali back to her native Czechoslavakia). The zither music score combined with the stark images of bombed out Vienna are reminiscent of the frontier towns of American Westerns. So The Third Man is not only a wonderful film noir, but a unique look at the brief time between WWII and the height of the Cold War.
