Still one of the all-time greats. Can never forget the fingers of Welles, reaching through the sewer grill at the end, tasting, as it were, a freedom, a world, that he would never see again. It is a great irony that his friend, the man who came to save him, delivers the quietus. And one forever wonders if it just may have been the girl that tipped the scales again enigmatic Mr. Lime. Some may mistake it for a creaky old black and white film from a different era, but it's gripping and timeless.
