Touch of Evil [1958]

Season 1 Episode 118

Jackie and Greg get pulled into the seedy underbelly of Orson Welles' TOUCH OF EVIL from 1958. Topics of discussion include the film's tangible atmosphere, Charlton Heston's portrayal of a Mexican, the film's torrid post-production history, and how it compares to other seminal film noirs.
