Competent, but hardly enthralling, with the exception of the superb "The Third Man" by comparison with which the rest of his work is simply mundane.

This justly famous scene captures a lot of Reed's technique. The angled cameras, off beat lighting, and astute editing. And some of the best dialogue in film.
