Go to the Crown Bar in Belfast and you will see that the enhanced photo on the wall [if it's still there] is a negative,i.e. a reverse image of the actual bar as it was during the time of the movie-making.A rare chance to be in a pub with a mirror image of itself on display, if I'm not mistaken-might be wrong?
This film is the epitome of that saying 'they don't make them like that anymore', just unbeliveably good cinema. Very few films come anywhere near to the humanity and artistic merit of this one.
Makes The Third Man, a brilliant film of course, seem like a potboiler. If it wasn't for the memorable zither music, everybody would be talking about the Odd Man Out instead.
One of the films that English people must be proud of.Great masterpiece.The wandering of the hero around the streets of London is an existationalist hymn.The scene with the picturew reminds me of the masterpiece"doctor Kaligari",and the actors are amazing.This film drives you to the most dramatic journey a celluloid hero ever had,and no one will forget it.ENCHANTED
My all time favorite movie!! I first ran into it in a high school film class in 1973 (a 16mm film critique on the creativity behind it). As soon as VHS was invented I sought out a copy. I eventually married and turned my wife onto it. We've now probably watched it together no less than 50 times. Truly amazing flick that is never seen or heard from in the general media. Hey, thanks for the memory blast!
What do I say ? The MOST brilliant film EVER made - my absolute all time favorite film. James at his BEST !!!! ODD MAN OUT is just breathtaking! It´s such a shame, that this masterpice has always been so underrated!!!!! No-one can holf a candle to James!!!
In ODD MAN OUT all the other actors were just brilliant too!!!!!
Gorgeous movie, gorgeous performance,people who don´t know this movie, please read all the comments at IMDb! I can only recommend this wonderful masterpiece by Carol Reed. James Mason in his best performance ever, he himself said about this movie, that it was the best he ever played in. Now available on DVD Special edition - have a try and watch this movie - brilliant and a real gem! I simply love it!!!
Gdybym mówił językami ludzi i aniołów,a miłości bym nie miał stałbym się jak miedź brzęczącaalbo cymbał brzmiący.Gdybym też miał dar prorokowaniai znał wszystkie tajemnice,i posiadał wszelką wiedzę,i wszelką [możliwą] wiarę, tak iż bym góry przenosił,a miłości bym nie miał, byłbym niczym.I gdybym rozdał na jałmużnę całą majętność moją,a ciało wystawił na spalenie,lecz miłości bym nie miał,nic bym nie zyskał.
as an Irish Catholic....I would love to see the film

The 1st great film I saw in 1948, when I was 8yrs old. Got it on DVD. If you never saw
"Outcast of the Islands" by Carol Reed- it is a must.

The film took place in and was mostly filmed in Belfast, not London. However, it is a masterpiece.
