This Saturday, July 13th, 8pm--Orson Welles' Touch of Evil! We will be screening the restored 1998 version of Touch of Evil, recut to Welles's specifications from his 58 page memo. This is the definitive version of this classic film.Initially dismissed by film critics, Touch of Evil found popularity among European audiences and won top awards at the 1958 Brussels World Film Festival. During the 1970s, its reputation was renewed and it is now widely regarded as one of Welles's best motion pictures and one of the best classic-era noir films as well as one of the last. In 1998, Touch of Evil was re-edited according to Welles's original vision, as outlined in his memo.
In 1993, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
