Death in the Saddle is a 1959 Hungarian vintage movie poster designed by Sandor Benko.

Death in the Saddle (Smrt v sedle) is a 1956 Czechoslovakian western film.

On the state stud-farm, Tomás (Rudolf Jelínek) is preparing to become a jockey together with other boys. He loves to read cowboy stories and Western pulp magazines and his passion makes him a laughing-stock of his friends and pretty Vera, his couch's daughter. Tomás looks for refuge with aging jockey Kosina (Eduard Dubský) and listens in admiration to his tales of old jockey glory. He doesn't suspect that Kosina had to leave the racecourse because of fraud and that he is still looking for ways to get easy money. (source: NFA.cz)
