Content Consideration
—————————
Touch of Evil contains a white man playing a Mexican DEA officer while wearing brown makeup. This practice was wrong then and is wrong now. While this depiction in no way represents Row House Cinema’s views or values, this movie is being screened as it was originally released. To do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed.
