Who said Orson Welles didn't make any other movies on par with Citizen Kane? Touch of Evil is a taut noir thriller with truly engaging film making (arguably the best tracking shots for it's time).

The story is classic noir, and even features a ballsy depiction of drug addiction for 50s cinema. Charleton Heston doesn't make the most convincing Mexican, but it's an irrelevant complaint in regards to this film.

This review of Touch of Evil (1958) was written by on 27 May 2018.
