"It was — and is — very difficult to focus, to navigate
between each sentence and its real-time double,
to find the fuzzy edges where these reflections meet."

from a Laura Marris essay in The New York Times.

"You put the lime in the coconut . . ."

Art is magic delivered from

(First published in German in 1951.)

The director, Carol Reed, makes…
 impeccable use of the beauty of black….
— V. B. Daniel on The Third Man 

I see your ironical smile.
— Hans Reichenbach
