Cultural siftings from the land beyond beyond. Weird stuff. Strange stuff. Cool stuff. Hot stuff. "What-the-hell-were-they-thinking-when-they-did-this?" stuff. Gee they don't make 'em like that anymore kinda stuff. Stuff and more stuff. My own personal soapbox and a vehicle for me to insult people.....

"Z" is for Zither!


One of the more memorable features of the file "The Third Man" was the haunting theme (also known as "The Harry Lime theme") as played by Anton Karas on the zither. Strangely enough, this was actually a hit at the time... go figure....
Anyway, here's even more of Orson Welles as Harry Lime -

The Lives of Harry Lime - 1951.12.28 (22) Two Is Company
The Lives of Harry Lime - 1952.01.04 (23) Cherchez La Gem
The Lives of Harry Lime - 1952.01.11 (24) Hand of Glory
The Lives of Harry Lime - 1952.01.18 (25) Double, Double Cross
The Lives of Harry Lime - 1952.01.25 (26) 5000 Pengoes and a Kiss
The Lives of Harry Lime - 1952.02.01 (27) Dark Enchantress
