The music is cheery and quite upbeat while the pictures are of destroyed buildings and criminal activity which is shocking to the audience. The film is set Vienna which is connected to the war and the images of churchs next to the bombed remains of buildings is highly contrasting. The voice over has a British accent which relates him to the British audience so they feel closer to him, the posh gentleman demenour is quite unnerving when he is talking about criminal activity and murder.
The opening scene has a few shocking pictures such as marching armies and a dead body floating in a river. These are medium shots. The Third Man also does some canted shots which are unnerving because the audience feels unbalanced. The voice over is quite familiar to the audience, treating them like friends.
