#53: The Third Man/Cobra

This month’s picks present two, uh, dissimilar responses to evil in the world. In the first, Carol Reed’s classic postwar noir The Third Man, Joseph Cotten and Orson Welles reunite a decade after Citizen Kane to wade into a morass of moral ambiguity from which no one emerges clean. In Sylvester Stallone’s Cannon Films copaganda flick Cobra, all the problems in the world can be solved by a bullet. Also: we debate whether or not Jake Gyllenhaal looks weird.
