Orson Welles' classic 1958 noir movie Touch of Evil, the story of a
corrupt police chief in a small town on the Mexican-American
border, starring Charlton Heston, Janet Leigh and Marlene Dietrich,
is widely recognised as one of the greatest noir films of Classical
Hollywood cinema. Richard Deming's study of the film considers it
as an outstanding example of the noir genre and explores its
complex relationship to its source novel, Badge of Evil by Whit
Masterson. He traces the film's production history, and provides an
insightful close analysis of its key scenes, including its famous
opening sequence, a single take in which the camera follows a
booby-trapped car on its journey through city streets and across
the border.
