That fellow would be Orson Welles in the 1949 film the Third Man. It is a fantastic film noir with a killer zither soundtrack and it doubles as my favorite movie. His character is currently my avatar, as Welles’s smug charm makes his character very memorable, in fact they created a radio series around said character. I’d greatly recommend it and near anything else with Welles.
Here is Breath, a heroine who breathes out a knockout gas.
