Orson Welles' movie at Library - Sunday

On Sunday, December 4, the 1958 movie Welles's Touch of Evil (1958) will be shown at the Woodstock Public Library. This Orson Welles movie was recently restored to the director's cut. The film stars Welles, Charlton Heston, Janet Leigh, Marlene Dietrich, and Akim Tamiroff.  Joseph Cotten and Zsa Zsa Gabor appear in cameo parts. 

Woodstock resident Kathy Spaltro included this in her press release: "Of her old friend Welles, who used to saw her in half during magic acts in the 1940s, Dietrich remarked, 'When I talk to him, I feel like a plant that has just been watered.' "
 
You are invited to attend the free showing of Touch of Evil at 1:00PM on Sunday, December 4, in the Library's meeting room on the lower level.
