A succesful photograper in swinging sixties London leads an aimless existence. Then one day he apparently witnesses a murder in the park.

The Graham Greene story of black-marketeer Harry Lime, who "dies" and then apparently comes back to life. A totally compelling thriller, set against a backdrop of shattered post-war Vienna and haunted by an evocative zither score. find out more...
