Heston went back to Westerns with "Three Violent People" (1957). Universal tried to interest him in a thriller starring Orson Welles, "Touch of Evil"; Heston agreed to be in it if Welles directed. The film has come to be regarded as a classic masterpiece. He also played a rare supporting role in William Wyler's "The Big Country" opposite Gregory Peck and Burl Ives.
