Review of Touch of Evil (1958) by Trill F — 21 Feb 2009
If you see this film, try and see the version which is closer to what Orson Welles intended. It's much better (obviously). So be careful which one you by. While you wouldn't think Charlton Heston would be good as a Mexican, he actually is quite good.
As usual with Welles, the direction and camerawork is astounding. Dark and quite disturbing in places. Welles plays his character Quinlan very well and Janet Leigh fills in effectively as the "damsel in distress".
