From the LA Times:
Here is -- or, rather, there was; Greene died in 1991 -- an artist whose imagination imprinted noir cinema (1949's "The Third Man," based on his novella and adapted screenplay and shot on location in ravaged Vienna, is widely hailed as the greatest British film ever made) and literature -- those sinuous espionage yarns like "The Ministry of Fear" and "Stamboul Train," with their moral depth and wary, weary spies, prefigured the canons of Ambler and Deighton, Le Carré and Ludlum.
Parse that! Ow.
It's from a book review: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/ne ... rint.story
