	Pinkie Brown - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pinkie Brown is a fictional character, the antihero of Graham Greene's 1937 novel Brighton Rock.
		Brown is an up-and-coming gangster, the teenaged leader and enforcer of a powerful gang in the Brighton underworld.
		The two main conflicts Brown is faced with throughout the course of the novel come from the two other main characters: Ida Arnold, a local busybody who wants to bring him to justice because it's "the right thing to do," and Rose, a young waitress who falls in love with him.

	Brighton Rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The antihero of the novel, Pinkie Brown, is a teenage sociopath and up-and-coming gangster who has just taken control of the gang Hale had belonged to.
		When Pinkie murders Hale, his attempts to cover his tracks lead to a chain of fresh crimes and to an ill-fated marriage to Rose, a waitress who unknowingly has the power to destroy his alibi.
		Although ostensibly an underworld thriller, the book is also a powerful exploration of the nature of sin and the basis of morality (Pinkie and Rose are Roman Catholics, and their beliefs are contrasted with Ida's strong but non-religious moral sensibility).

		While Pinkie is a psychopath who rejects all goodness in people and enjoys inflicting pain on others, being a cross between a bully and a cringing child afraid of the dark; but for Greene, at least, he stands for something real---evil.
		Pinkie returns to the restaurant and strikes up a relationship with the inexperienced 17-year-old waitress, Rose (Marsh), who is taken with the bravado of Pinkie and falls in love with him, not caring how rotten he is as long as he loves her.
		Pinkie is frightened about being uncovered and even though he can't stand Rose he decides to have the crooked lawyer fix it so that the underaged girl could be legally married to him in a civil ceremony, therefore she can no longer be a witness against him.

		What Pinkie wants immediately is to obliterate his past in Paradise Piece, with the knowledge of his parents' sexual habits, and to escape from the room at Frank's, where strategic planning is made impossible by the interruptions of the other gang members and Judy.
		Pinkie seems to be doomed - both by his environment and by his temperament - to hell, and yet he is held accountable for his actions.
		Pinkie knows and fears the sensual element in the violin music he hears as he walks on the Palace Pier - he thinks of "the catgut vibrating in the heart" or "grief in the guts" and is the nearest thing he knows to "sorrow".

		No one noticed that the man accused of reading sexual intent into a cute nine-year-old was about to publish a novel about a 17-year-old boy (Pinkie is called the Boy throughout the novel) and a 16-year-old girl, Rose, that was a study in good and evil, innocence and infantile depravity.
		That's where the void in Pinkie's background is so arresting, and so hostile to the overall air of realism.
		Pinkie Brown is a subject of profound metaphysical dread.

		Pinkie is a misanthropic pessimist, who looks to violence as the solution to most problems, and is profoundly mentally disturbed, especially when it comes to sex, which a repressive Catholic upbringing has sullied.
		Pinkie is a brooding thug, with little motivation other than to be on top of the world, preferably with his boot at its neck.
		For Pinkie, Catholicism is no less universal a truth, but a concept only adhered to in the negative, at least after an encounter with razor-wielding toughs forces him to realize he can't expect himself to make that last-minute plea for divine forgiveness he had been counting on.

		"Pinkie has two or three really big numbers about his awareness that hell exists, but he’s not going to do anything about it, and this extraordinary pull of the Catholic conscience.
		That is the aspect that’s slightly missing in the film, where there was no real way to get into what it was all about, beyond seeing in his face that he was very fraught.
		With a cast who look every bit as young as Pinkie and his teenage bride, and a design that is "Brighton in the 1930s but in your nightmares", it should add up to a suitably chilling evening.

		Admittedly Greene's anti-hero, the 17-year-old boy-killer, Pinkie Brown, retains his Catholic inheritance and diabolical nastiness.
		Nevertheless the battle between Pinkie and Ida, the heart of the novel, is marginalised in the musical.
		All you get is a sad love story about a pocket killer and an adoring waitress who tritely sings "I don't care what he's done." Michael Jibson's Pinkie has the right babyfaced, cold-eyed sadism, Sophie Ragavelas is sweetly innocent as Rose and Harriet Thorpe makes what she can of the voluptuous Ida.
