Third Man, The (2-disc Special Edition)
Third Man, The (2-disc Special Edition)
£17.99
Set in a bombed-out, post-war Vienna, THE THIRD MAN stars Cotten as Holly Martins, a writer of pulp Westerns, who arrives penniless as guest of his childhood chum Harry Lime, only to find him dead. Martins develops the ultimate conspiracy theory after learning of a “third man” present at the time of Harry’s death, running into interference from investigating British officer Trevor Howard and falling head-over-heels for Harry’s grief-stricken lover, Alida Valli.

An all-time classic THE THIRD MAN features some of the screen’s most memorable set pieces -- the chase through the sewers, the enormous ferris wheel, the elm-lined cemetery -- and Anton Karas’ zither score, a worldwide phenomenon in itself.

As civilisation draws ever nearer to their idyllic forest home, a group of mischievous Japanese tanuki raccoons try to scare humans away. But they soon discover that humans are not their only rivals in the struggle for their age-old territory.

Released in 1994 as the Japanese economy slumped, but looking back to the sixties construction boom in Tokyo’s Tama Hills, Pom Poko questions the money-grabbing ethics of yuppie Japan, and mourns the loss of the countryside. Drawing on Japanese myths and legends, writer and director Isao Takahata presents a satirical view of woodland spirits using every available magical ruse to take on modern developers: including transformations, sabotage and trickery.

Pom Poko is a unique window into Japanese folklore, a comedy of modern failings, and an elegiac tale of unlikely heroes fighting insurmountable odds.
