Autumn leaves slowly falling on a deserted path; graves, trees silently contemplating a solitary figure, Anna Schmidt (Allida Valli), as she walks towards the camera, towards the man waiting on the side, Holly Martins (Joseph cotton) who nonchalantly lays back on a cart, after having been dropped by Major Calloway (Trevor Howard) from the funeral of Harry Lime (Orson Welles). Anna walks past the man, who does no longer exist. With her out of the frame, Holly Martin lights a cigarette.
Autumn leaves still falling, slowly, slowly...
One of the saddest scenes of cinema, that, the closing one from Carol Reed's “The Third Man” (1949), undoubtedly one of the masterpieces of all times.
