We\\u2019ll celebrate the actor, writer, and director\\u2019s birthday with some of his performances on the air. First, he recreates his Third Man movie role in \\u201cHorse Play\\u201d from The Lives of Harry Lime. Then, he narrates the bloody history of \\u201cThe Khaki Handkerchief\\u201d from The Black Museum.
