The Dark Prince

Today's Mono Monday theme hosted by Dollykgray is The Third Man.

This is the title of an autobiography by the spin doctor Peter Mandelson, the title referring to his involvement in the creation of New Labour.

It is also the name of a film noir made in 1949 set in postwar Vienna starring Joseph Cotten, Alide Valli, Trevor Howard and Orson Welles as Harry Lime.

The cover and title of Mandelson's book was obviously stolen from  this video cover though as he was dubbed the Prince of Darkness I would have thought a Hammer Horror cover would have been more suitable.

So I have made some amends and this is my submission for MM143.


If you really want to see it the original Peter Mandelson book cover it is here
