Touch of Evil is on TCM (Turner Classic Movies) right now
It's an hour into it, but its still worth watching if you've never seen it. Classic noir PLUS the cheese factor of Charlton Heston playing a Mexican.

1. Can't believe no one else is watching this!
Orson Welles was a fucking great filmmaker. I almost like Touch of Evil better than Citizen Kane.

2. And Janet Leigh with a broken arm in a cast, carrying that
coat around over her arm.

Quite the "esoteric" film!

3. Poor Orson !
It just breaks my heart to see what 'they' (Wm Randolph Hearst and 'the establishment') did to him ... he was so brilliant and as good an actor as film maker ... you can see from how he looks that he's practically a broken man (despite the character he's playing)by this point.

The Third Man is my FAVE Welles film.


:hippie:
