It’s not enough for ghostly Riggs to haunt Britt from the shadows of bar curtains. It’s not enough to deny her the glamour roles. He wants to make her a ghost too, touching nothing, passing through everything, insubstantial. Thumper, her horse, whose ear we can see over Bogart’s left shoulder, can live, but in death Riggs will deny Britt the horse too. He will saddle Thumper and ride him across the deserts of Nevada like the last horseman of the apocalypse. That should have an effect on her. Then he’ll see what he does next.⠀
