darthhowie's gonna hate this
The AFI Silver Theatre is showing The Third Man soon, as I learned from an Express notice. Alas, the notice is flawed. I can attribute "seld-obsessed" to a rushed copy editor. Calling it "Robert Krasker's 'The Third Man'" is fair but potentially misleading, since Krasker was the cinematographer, not the director, writer, or executive producer. What I'm not so inclined to forgive is this line:
..."The Third Man" tells the story of an impoverished novelist (Orson Welles) who gets mixed up in an international murder mystery when a friend inexplicably dies.
Wrong role. That was Joseph Cotten. Honestly, is Welles so hard to distinguish and remember?
