Im Zeichen des Bösen
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 films noir. In 1998, "Touch of Evil" was re-edited accordingly to Welles's original vision, as outlined in the memo.
