The Third Man - Perspective

Harry Lime meets Martins at the fair ground and they enjoy an enlightening
conversation in a carriage of the ferris wheel as it climbs.                      

                      MARTINS
          Have you ever seen any of your
          victims?

                       HARRY
          Do you know, I don't ever feel
          comfortable on these sort of
          things...Victims?

He opens the door of the carriage.

                       HARRY
          Don't be melodramatic.                 
          Look down there...

LONG SHOT

from Martins' eye line of the fair ground far below and the
people now on it.

                       HARRY (O.S.)
          Would you feel any pity if one of
          those dots stopped moving forever?

                       HARRY
          If I offered you £20,000 for every
          dot that stopped - would you
          really, old man, tell me to keep my
          money? Or would you calculate how
          many dots you could afford to
          spare?...Free of Income Tax, old
          man...

          ...free of Income Tax.

                       HARRY
          It's the only way to save money
          nowadays.

                       MARTINS
          Lot of good your money will do you
          in jail.

...

                        HARRY
          You're just a little mixed up about
          things.
          ...in general. Nobody thinks in
          terms...
          ...of human beings. Governments
          don't, so why should we? They talk
          about the people, and the
          Proletariat... I talk about the
          suckers and the mugs...
          It's the same thing. They have
          their five-year plan, and so have I.

                       MARTINS
          You used to believe in God.

                       HARRY
          I still do believe in God, old
          man... I believe in God and Mercy
          and all that... The dead are
          happier dead. They don't miss much
          here...
          ...poor devils.
