If you watch this and appraoch it as a "B" noir type movie movie, you will give it at least 3.5 stars. Orson Welles is a genius despite what anyone says. His mind was created to change the film industry. I liked this movie. Janet Leigh (Psycho) and Marlene Dietrich were beautiful. Charlton Heston is a good actor, I need to watch more of his films.
The movie is about a crooked cop (Welles) who will stop at nothing to protect his name. I would only recommend watching this movie if you like Orson Welles. This movie it really is about Welles, and him and how they have remade this movie to be like what he wanted. the studio dumped Welles as he was a pain in their side during post production (which he was do every director he worked for). He wrote the director a 58 page memo of the changes he demanded. This DVD version has those changes. The man was a crazy genius.
