4.0 out of 5 stars
Book different than the movie,
By AC (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Touch of Evil (Paperback)
Having seen the Orson Welles directed movie, I recently bought a copy of this book. I was surprised at how different the original story is from the film. In the book, the main character is a district attorney in San Diego, not a narcotics officer from Mexico. And while Charlton Heston plays the Mexican officer in the film who's married to an American, in the book the DA is married to a Mexican woman. Also, the film takes place in a Texas town near the US-Mexico border while the book takes place (although not actually named) in San Diego. While the film is a masterpiece because of Wells' direction, the book remains a more believable story.
