    Ben Hecht is one heck of a writer. The dialogue is smart and punchy. I’m punch drunk in love with this movie. I just wish it had more violence. More corpses, please.

    "Ride the Pink Horse" may not boast the most robust plot or extensive character interaction, but its cinematography is compelling enough to make the film worthwhile. The dynamic camera work skillfully draws the viewer into each scene and fluidly guides them through the unfolding action. Additionally, the depiction of Santa Fe Plaza is a delightful highlight, remaining remarkably unchanged since the film's production.
