There are a multitude of books on Welles, and rightly so...but this is one of the few that simply looks at my favourite of, not just Welles' films, but one of my all time favourite films. Touch of Evil is a masterpiece, not just because of the title sequence, but layer on layer of quality; it is known for two prints - the original theatrical release and the 'Welles Cut' based on the discovery of his annotated shooting script - this book neatly looks at both.A nice synopsis of the film and Welles...
Very thorough... to the point where it becomes quite difficult to read...
Very good, fans of the film will enjoy it immensely.
made me consider the feat of shooting entire dialogue reverses blocks away from each other (one has a church, behind welles one has a whorehouse, behind charlton heston) and maybe even nights apart. this is the b movie that made the grade.
