The Third Man (#1)

This week, the guys finally come to the end of the BFI Top 100 list with a discussion of The Third Man (the #1 film!) Is Holly Martens a good writer and how does it factor into the story itself? Could this movie have benefitted from a Se7en-like ad campaign? Does the unusual soundtrack work or is it distracting? And most importantly, how many Taye Diggs movies can Brendan name under pressure? All this and more in a landmark episode!
 
Next week: We rank the previous 20 movies covered on the show and give out some awards!
