In time for the movie’s 75th anniversary, this beautiful, illustrated book from Titan Books comprehensively covers the making of the 1949 classic The Third Man, acknowledged as the masterwork of many of its key players: Carol Reed as director; cast members including Joseph Cotten and Orson Welles; novelist/screenwriter Graham Greene; and composer of the instantly recognizable zither score Anton Karas. The battle for ownership of the film between US producer David O. Selznick and the British producer Alexander Korda, which developed into protracted legal proceedings, is explored, as is the lasting influence the movie has had on modern filmmakers, such as Martin Scorsese. Author and filmmaker John Walsh has uncovered unpublished photos and new interviews on the identity of the real-life Third Man, making this stunning book a must-have for any film fan. This hardback is now available from Forbidden Planet and retails at £24.99 for the hardcover. There is also a currently a signed edition selling for £32.99, also from Forbidden Planet
