The Third Man Page #3
Everyone in Vienna is. We all sell
cigarettes and that kind of thing.
l tell you, l've done things that would
have seemed unthinkable before the war.
Once when l was hard up,
l sold some tires on the black market.
l wonder what my father
would have said.
l'm afraid the police
meant more than that.
They get rather absurd
ideas sometimes.
He's somewhere now
he won't mind about that.
Even so, l'm not going to leave
it at this. Would you help me ?
l wish l could. But,
you know, l am an Austrian.
l have to be
careful with the police.
l'm afraid
l can't help you.
Except with advice,
of course.
Advice.
We came out of his place
like this...
and were walking this way.
from over there.
Harry went across, and
from up there came the truck.
lt was just about here.
- Here ?
- Yes.
His friend and l
picked him up,
carried him across over here.
- [ Car Horn Honks ]
- lt was a terrible thing. Terrible.
We laid him down
just about here.
And this is where he died.
Even at the end,
his thoughts were of you.
What did he say ?
l can't remember
the exact words, Holly.
l may call you Holly, mayn't l ?
He always called you that to us.
He was anxious l should
look after you when you arrived,
to see that you got safely home,
tickets, you know, and all that.
But he said he died
instantaneously.
Well, he died before
Well, there was only you and
this friend of his. Uh, who was he ?
A Romanian. Mr. Popescu.
- l'd like to talk to him.
- H-He has left Vienna.
[ Dog Whimpering ]
- Uh, excuse me.
- Yes ?
- Did you know Mr. Lime well ?
- Mr. Lime ? Yes.
- You remember me. U-Upstairs.
- Yes, l remember you.
Who used to visit Mr. Lime ?
Visit ? Eh--
- What did he say ?
- He says he doesn't know everybody.
[ German ]
Excuse me.
Who was at the funeral
besides you ?
Only his doctor, Dr. Winkel.
Some girl of the Josefstadt Theater.
You know what Harry was.
You oughtn't to speak to her.
Not necessarily.
She'd probably want to help.
What's the good
of another postmortem ?
Suppose you dig up something
discreditable to Harry ?
- Would you give me your address ?
- l live in the Russian sector.
But you'll find me at
the Casanova Club every night.
One has to work the best way
one can, you know.
- What's the name of this girl ?
- l don't know.
l don't think l ever heard it.
You did mention the theater.
Josefstadt.
But l still think
it won't do Harry any good.
You'd do better
to think of yourself.
[ Chuckles ]
l'll be all right.
