Directed by Orson Welles

USA, 1958, 1h 51min, 35mm

“No amount of repeated viewings can dull the edge of its sinister ambience or soften the visual excitement Welles brought to this quintessentially cinematic film.”
—The Los Angeles Times

“Welles in TOUCH OF EVIL is beyond belief; his enjoyment of expressing himself on screen is so strong you can feel it.”
—Martin Scorsese

Long exiled from Hollywood, Orson Welles returned to make this adaptation of a tawdry pulp novel about bordertown corruption and produced a masterpiece. With Charlton Heston, Janet Leigh, and Welles himself. A great film. In 35mm.
