    Touch of Evil (1958) is an American film noir crime thriller‚ directed by Orson Welles. It may sound like a typical cop movie‚ but Welles for the time period pushed the limits of filmmaking.

He was very opinionated about not liking white people and he did not care about what people thought of it. Anthony was very proud to be an African American and it showed throughout the movie. You also got to see a softer side of him towards the end when he discovered the van full of foreign women and children
