REDISCOVERING WORLD CINEMA – ORSON WELLES
Directed by Orson Welles, with Orson Welles, Charlton Heston. Janet Leigh.Music by Henry Mancini
Mexican-born cop Heston agrees to investigate a border town bombing only to find himself drawn into a harrowing web of greed, treachery and revenge overseen by corrupt Sheriff Welles. Made by Welles after a lapse of several years this sinister thriller is one of his last–and considered one of his greatest. It’s a baroque mystery, Welles-style, where danger and depravity run rampant in , a world as perverse as it is fascinating. Marlene Dietrich, Mercedes McCambridge and Dennis Weaver shine in incredible supporting turns.
