Our Film Critic Justin Tanner Recommends You See This Classic!
In 'The Oxbow Incident' directed by William Wellman, Henry Fonda and Harry Morgan get caught in the crossfire when an angry posse, out for blood, decide to play judge and jury to three men accused of a crime they didn’t commit.
The large cast includes Jane Darwell, Dana Andrews and Anthony Quinn, who all shine in supporting roles.
But it’s the relatively unknown William Eythe, as the sweet-natured son of a vicious military man, that carries the emotional heft of the film. When his martinet father snaps “I'll have no female boys bearing my name,” the look of quiet anguish on Eythe’s face resonates like a physical blow.
And keep the tissues handy for Fonda’s heartrending final monologue ~Justin Tanner
