An all-time cinematic classic and one of the finest British films ever made, Carol Reed’s film noir masterpiece THE THIRD MAN returns to cinemas this Autumn to celebrate its 70th anniversary, in stunning 4K, and a brand new trailer and poster have been released in conjunction with the exciting announcement.

On 1st September 2019, 70 years to the day since the World Premiere, Studiocanal will celebrate the film with a special event at Picturehouse Central, London. Film critic Danny Leigh will host a Q&A featuring one of the last remaining crew members, Angela Allen, as well as special guest and fan of the film, screenwriter Hossein Amini (The Wings of the Dove, The Two Faces of January), with more special guests still to be confirmed. There will also be a live musical performance from Cornelia Mayer, a Viennese zither player who trained with Anton Karas (the composer and performer of the iconic original soundtrack). Tickets for the event can be purchased here.

 

On 29th September, the film will return to cinemas across the UK for one day only, and screenings will be followed by the filmed Q&A from the 1st September anniversary event.
