Stories about corruption have been part of the film canon for decades. Orson Welles captures the sordid and gritty side of the law so marvelously it's scary. The artistry is so immaculate and precise I'm sure that every frame could make a meaningful still-life. And Welles' portrayal of Quinlan is one of the most memorable ever. Classic film, perfect for Halloween-time.
