Description

"They had 500 years of democracy and peace and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."Carol Reed’s The Third Man is a gorgeously photographed bit of post-war film noir that gave us one of the greatest grins in the history of cinema. It also gave us a ton of zither! Clint, Cal and Alex dive into the classic detective yarn that’s not really about a detective at all. They discuss the dutch angles that kept Joseph Cotton on his heels for most of the film, just how bad a guy Orson Welles as Harry Lime really is and just how bad a guy Orson Welles was on set, as legends have it. It got booted off of AFI’s Top 100 movies list but find out where it ranks on the CineFix Top 100!Meanwhile, producer Dan’s algorithm is somewhere under the rubble of post-war Vienna…CineFix Top 100 is produced by Tayo Oyekan, with Director of Photography, Jamie Parslow and Technical Producer, Marhyan Franzen. Our Executive Producers are Clint Gage, Dan Parkhurst and Corrado Caretto. Logo and graphic design by Eric Sapp and title animations by Casey Redmon.

The CineFix Top 100 is the first podcast from the long standing, movie obsessed YT page, CineFix. Compiled from their personal top 100s by some sort of robot algorithm they don’t really understand, our resident film nerds Clint Gage, Alex Stedman and Michael Calabro plan to discuss one of the top 100 movies each week with one catch: they don't know what movies are on it or where they rank!
