| Just one of HARRY LIME's "dots" |
It is easy to imagine our Harry (Lime) in July 1943, just back from Hamburg as an Allied bomber pilot dropping fire bombs on Axis children, mere "dots", thousands of feet below him : a war hero, in other words.
Just as easy as imagining our Harry in 1949 Vienna, still a member of an Allied nation and still killing Axis children, only this time with watered-down penicillin.
But something has clearly changed : because now he is regarded as a a villain, in fact one of cinema's all time worst villains.
