Wiener Riesenrad

Riesenrad is one of Vienna, Austria’s most popular tourist attractions. The giant Ferris wheel stands at 212 feet, and appeared in the post-World War II film noir The Third Man (1949).

Improvised Cuckoo Clock Speech
Orson Welles ad-libbed the famous line about Switzerland, the cuckoo clock, and 500 years of peace. It’s not in Graham Greene’s original script or novella and was inspired by Welles’ own wit.

The Third Man (1949)

British director Carol Reed’s film noir was set in post-World War II Vienna and starred Joseph Cotten, Alida Valli, Orson Welles, and Trevor Howard. Considered one of the greatest films of all time, The Third Man is celebrated for its acting, cinematography, and musical score. Viennese zitherist Anton Karas wrote and performed the score, using only the zither. In 1950 the film’s title music “The Third Man Theme” topped the music charts and Anton Karas became an international star.
