Der dritte Mann

Mit: Joseph Cotten, Alida Valli, Trevor Howard
Vienna, shortly after the Second World War: the occupied city is controlled by the Russians, Americans, British and French. The black market and crime are rife. The American Holly Martins, author of cheap dime novels, has followed an invitation by his friend Harry Lime in the hope of starting a new life in Vienna. But Harry Lime has died under mysterious circumstances. Dubious business partners report a tragic traffic accident, a witness has seen a third man at the scene of the accident and the British Major Calloway claims that Harry Lime was one of the worst criminals of Vienna. Instead of leaving Vienna, Martins tries to shed light on the matter, is pushed to the limits of his own morality and has to face the truth in a dramatic chase in the city’s sewers.

Manche mögen's heiß

Mit: George Raft, Marilyn Monroe, Pat O'Brien
Wrong place, wrong time: two jazz musicians, Joe and Jerry, involuntarily witness the St. Valentine's Day massacre in Chicago in 1929. In horror, they see how a criminal gang eliminate their rivals by machine-gun fire. Barely having escaped the bullets, they have to get out of town and find a safe haven. What could be safer than disguised as women, taking the names Josephine and Daphne, joining a women's jazz band and accepting an engagement in Florida, the holiday paradise for millionaires? But what initially appears to be a male fantasy, soon turns into a crazy nightmare. They have to survive the night in the sleeping car with the other girls as well as the advances of the stronger sex. In addition, the tender feelings that Joe, or rather Josephine, has for band member Sugar Kane, almost lead to disaster. Finally the gangsters from Chicago hold their annual members' meeting in the very same beach hotel where they perform every night.

In a dirty, forgotten border town between Mexico and North America, a car bomb explodes and kills two people. Mike Vargas, a Mexican prosecutor gets involved in the investigation, while the lead policeman Hank Quinlan is reluctant to cooperate.

He has no qualms about joining forces with drug dealer Grandi against Vargas. A duel to the death develops between Vargas and Quinlan. With its story of murder, marijuana and police corruption, Touch of Evil is one the the last of the 1940s/50s cycle of crime thrillers known as film noir. Welles’ vivid turn as corpulent bent cop Quinlan provided one of the genre’s most memorable villains.
