"The Third Man" was on cable Wednesday night.  One of my all-time favorites.
:x

:huh:  What disgusts you?  The movie?  Cable? Wednesdays?  My enjoyment of it?   :D

The movie and your enjoyment of it.  Cable is good and I've learned to tolerate Wednesdays.

Cable is alright, Wednesdays are usually awful, but "The Third Man" is always great.  What's your objection?  The endless zither music?

I remember the pacing as interminably slow, but beyond that I can't remember specifics.

 Brain- sort of. She's coming next year, and she likes a regular diet of pretentious foreign films, so I thought i'd start finding good ones from the library for her sake. This one I have safely screened as terrible at great cost to myself, and I will have to find more pleasing diversions for the lady.

I should reiterate, that film was awful. The feelings of wasted time and contempt still haven not left me.

 None at all. She cannot stand sweden, really. French, german, japanese and eastern block films are her main providence when it comes to foreign tastes.

Bergman is mandatory viewing.   :mad:   

If you liked "The Hangover," you'll love "Cries and Whispers"!  :w00t:

My favorite Bergman movie is probably "The Virgin Spring" with a young Max von Sydow as vengeful father.

"Hour of the Wolf" is my personal favorite, even if it isn't necessarily his best.

It's been inspired by a folk tale, and has inspired movies like Last House on the Left. A girl is raped and killed by a bunch of thugs. The killers find (unknowingly) shelter in her parents' house. When the parents realize they're the killers of their daughter they slaughter them.

Bergman adds a layer of carnal lust, paganism vs. Christianity and a realistic depiction of medieval Swedish life to the mix.
