VENICE, 1958. Venice’s Ocean Front Walk, just north of Windward Avenue, stands in for the Mexican border in Touch of Evil (Universal).

VENICE BOARDWALK, 1958. The classic single-take opening of Touch of Evil (Universal) follows this convertible from Pacific Avenue, down Windward Avenue, and onto the boardwalk. This film serves as a frozen-in-time historical record of Venice’s landmarks during the beatnik era, showing many of the original buildings which have not survived.

WINDWARD AVENUE, 1958. The St. Mark’s Hotel annex (still standing) on Windward Avenue convincingly doubled as the seedy Ritz Hotel in Touch of Evil (Universal). Charlton Heston played a fearless Mexican narcotics officer.
