1. "The Ox-Bow Incident" is unmissable!

I first saw it in on German TV, believe it or not, and it has stayed with me ever after (yes, even with the dubbing of Henry Fonda ;-)). What a powerful movie.

2. OK I'm not going to miss it!

I'm DVR'ing it to watch later, based on your recommendation! :hi:
