«El tercer hombre» is the film script by Graham Greene, published by Plot Ediciones in 1994 in paperback (125 pages, in Spanish).
The work is the complete script of the 1949 film, set in an occupied and ruined Vienna after the Second World War. The devastated city reflects the traps and moral ambiguities faced by its inhabitants as they try to survive. It focuses on Harry Lime, a man who speculates on postwar scarcity and trades in adulterated penicillin, while British military policeman Calloway tries to expose him. The text includes the modifications that Carol Reed and Orson Welles introduced in the definitive version, showing the process of adapting the script to the screen.
It belongs to the collection Biblioteca de textos cinematográficos Tal Cual, number 12. Spanish translation by Marta Heras. Second edition, published in 1994.
Aimed at film enthusiasts and cinema scholars, this volume allows comparison of Graham Greene's original script with the changes that shaped the film directed by Carol Reed in 1949.
Henry Graham Greene was an English writer and journalist regarded by many as one of the leading novelists of the 20th century.
