****** Thanks, Joy. Her RIDE THE PINK HORSE was excellent. Even though it might have been a bit uneven, it was intense, dark, and desperate. The movie was good, too, but it deviated so far from the book that it lost a lot of the look and feel.

I've been trying to decide whether I want to read her IN A LONELY PLACE or just watch the movie version. As earlier noted on the list, a lot of great old noir movies have come out on DVD here recently.
