StudioCanal will add to its Vintage Classics series dierctor Carol Reed's film
The Man Between (1953), starring James Mason, Claire Bloom, Geoffrey Toone, and Ernst Schröder. The release will be available for purchase on January 2.
Synopsis: A later collaboration between Mason and Carol Reed, The Man Between is often considered a companion piece to The Third Man thanks to its atmospheric portrayal of a city struggling to survive in a grim post-war reality of poverty and mistrust. The action is here transposed to a divided Berlin, and to the beginning of the Cold War. Unlike the devilish Harry Lime, Mason's world-weary dealer Ivo Kerr is ultimately still a decent man, compelled by his love for a naïve schoolteacher to make one last misguided trip through the Brandenberg Gate, with potentially tragic consequences.
