I’m contemplating this question over a frothy café latte in the tiny Blue Bar of Vienna’s Hotel Sacher, where the plush velvet booths are deep navy, the walls a silk brocade of peacock, the marble tables veined cobalt and even the 19th-century damsels in the oil paintings clothed in teal and azure. The hotel’s long-time former owner, Anna Sacher, understood atmosphere. Blue is the calm of water, of the sky in sunlight. Perhaps because it is the predominant colour of our world, even its coolest shades produce a warm emotion.

  • I-Spy in Harry Lime's Vienna to Mark the Centenary of Graham Greene's Birth, Paul Gogarty Takes a Trip Through the Locations of the Third Man
    I-spy in Harry Lime's Vienna To mark the centenary of Graham Greene's birth, Paul Gogarty takes a trip through the locations of The Third Man. (Filed: 25/09/2004) The Vienna Philharmonic was in town and the Opera House had already clocked up half its 300-plus annual performances. City secrets: Graham Greene's spy novel was set in the Austrian capital I, however, was in Austria not to applaud the achievements of the Habsburgs but to explore the shadowy underworld of Graham Greene's The Third Man, that masterpiece of atmosphere and espionage that started life as a film treatment before being turned into a novel. The film that Carol Reed made from Greene's script happens to be my all-time favourite movie. In 1948, when the novelist first arrived in bomb-blasted Vienna to research the script, he found every fourth home in ruins and sierras of rubble in the streets. All he had by way of a storyline was the kernel of an idea about a dead man walking. Over the next three weeks, however, through his network of intelligence contacts, Greene found the other two essential ingredients for his story: a deadly black market in watered-down penicillin, and a network of sewers. The sewers that "the worst racketeer who ever made a dirty living in this city" vanished into are still there. The city's special Wega police department - Greene calls them the Sewer Police - continues to patrol the labyrinth whenever world leaders are in town. And the film continues to resonate throughout this imperial city.
