Imagine being Holly Martins. You’re in Vienna, investigating the death of your best friend, getting chased by an angry mob and threatened by British intelligence, and suddenly you’re reminded that you, an author of dime-store novels, agreed to give a lecture on post-war literature.
That’s what happens in this scene that I love (featuring Joseph Cotten as Holly Martins) from The Third Man.

My wife and I saw the film in Vienna, still showing a few times a week during the day at a local theater – I believe the longest running film in history.
