About

While the 16th Best Picture winner - Casablanca - stands proudly as a bonafide classic, it isn't the only nominee of that year that stands the test of time as a genuine masterpiece. That honour also falls on William A. Wellman's undervalued social drama, The Ox-Bow Incident.At a tight 75 minutes long, The Ox-Bow Incident manages to deliver a stunning thriller that leaves the three hour bloated epics in its wake. Co-hosts Dave and Andrew delve into the power of masculinity, the cruelty of mob justice, and more in this deep discussion here.Read Dave's review of The Ox-Bow Incident at Insession Film here.Follow the hosts on social media at the links below:Andrew F Peirce – @TheCurbAUDavid Giannini – @DarnthatdaveAwards Don’t Matter – @AwardsDontPodSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.Sign up for the latest interviews, reviews, and more via https://www.thecurb.com.au/subscribe/ Hosted on Acast.
