''Force of Evil'' is a 1948 American film noir directed by Abraham Polonsky who had already achieved a name for himself as a scriptwriter, most notably for the gritty boxing film ''Body and Soul'' (1947). Like ''Body and Soul'', the film starred John Garfield. The film was adapted by Abraham Polonsky and Ira Wolfert from Wolfert's novel ''Tucker's People.''〔.〕 The film marked the first on screen acting role of Beau Bridges.〔.〕 In 1994, ''Force of Evil'' was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". ==Plot== The drama tells of a lawyer, Joe Morse (Garfield), working for a powerful gangster, Tucker, who wishes to consolidate and control the numbers racket in New York. This means assuming control of the many smaller numbers rackets, one of which is run by Morse’s older brother Leo Morse (Thomas Gomez). The plot which unfolds is a terse, melodramatic thriller notable for realist location photography, almost poetic dialogue and frequent biblical allusions (Cain and Abel, Judas's betrayal, stigmata).
