Best Answer

In Graham Greene's novel, 'The Third Man,' there were several changes between it and the film. First of all, the main character's name was changed from Rollo Martins to Holly Martins, because actor, Joseph Cotton thought 'Rollo' made him sound like a homosexual. The Frankfurt preamble was eliminated in the movie to economize on time. In the novel, Rollo was not discovered to be a fraud at the Frankfurt lecture, but in the movie he was quickly recognized as being an imposter. In the novel, the characters are English, in the film, they are American. In the book, Anna Schmidt is kidnapped by Russian military police, in the film this is omitted.
