Their is a great film noir based around this event, the burning of Zozobra. The movie is called "Ride the Pink" Horse",and it was actually filmed on location in New Mexico. "Ride the Pink Horse" stars Robert Montgomery (Elizabeth's dad) and Wanda Hendrix (along with other familiar faces like Fred Clark). This is really a terrific but overlooked movie. It turns up on TCM from time to time usually on Eddie Muller's show. Try to catch it next time around.

That is a great film noir, that doesn’t get a lot of attention.

Wanda Hendrix was so cute.

It seems like this event has been around longer than Burning Man.
