In 1949, Orson Welles starred in Carol Reed's film The Third Man. His character Harry Lime cast a long shadow over the events of the film, and is arguably his most popular character. Years later, Welles would reprise his role for a series of radio adventures for Harry Alan Towers, called The Lives of Harry Lime (alternately The Adventures of Harry Lime).This informal guide covers every episode of the series, with episode information, plot summaries, comments, historical data, and pictures to illuminate the globe trotting radio adventures of one of Welles' most popular characters.Interspersed throughout are sections on Mr. Arkadin, the film based off of many episodes of The Lives of Harry Lime, and, of course, The Third Man. Robert Kroll is a professor of English at a few schools in Michigan. This book is a precursor to a fuller book about Orson Welles.
