As we have mentioned previously in this blog, the genre to which our film belongs is FILM NOIR , even though it is not considered as a genre, we can say that the mood of this movie corresponds to the characteristics that film noir has. That is the reason why looking and visiting our classmate’s blogs, we have noticed a relationship in genre with two movies : The Maltese Falcon and Citizen Kane.
The Third Man and these two movies mentioned belong to the category of Film Noir since all of them work with the typical dark , shadowy colors used in this genre. They are also classified here because they work with topics related to death , and deeply, with ways of dying that are not that clear because the person who has died has been murder for someone who is not discovered until the end of the movies. Talking about this, we can also make a relation among these films, because all of them have as a second genre MYSTERY.
Other connection found between The Maltese Falcon and our movie, is that both of them were at the beginning a book, which became a film.
Regarding Citizen Kane, the most noticeable similarity is related with the participation of the great Orson Wells, who directed Citizen Kane and participated as the main actor in The Third Man, which allows us to say that this man was a great contributor in the history of cinema.
Finally, The Maltese Falcon , Citizen Kane and our movie were released in the 40s, the decade of the golden age of film noir, period between 1940s and 1960s.
