Abraham Polonsky's I Can Get It for You Wholesale (1951) Reconsidered Abraham Polonsky (1910-1999) wrote only three scripts before he was blacklisted in 1951. ABRAHAM POLONSKY: Honey, if they gave me the yellow pages of the telephone book, it would get to be a Polonsky picture.

Andrew Dickos Interview Abraham Polonsky, because of the moral anguish of his protagonists and his love of New York City (in Force of Evil). In like manner, but to a different end, I find Polonsky's Force of Evil to be equally great in its moral reckoning and resonance, and how these are represented through an extraordinary use of poetic dialogue, compelling music, and superb camerawork. But it is consistent with the poetic vision of Dassin here, whose protagonist runs until he can run no more. www.noirfilm.com /BC_Andrew_Dickos.htm
