 Cobb Highway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cobb Highway is a State highway in western New South Wales, Australia.
The Cobb Highway is not fully paved and is the most remote and probably least used of the state's highways.
It was apparently named after Cobb and Co, a company which ran a network of stage-coaches in inland Australia in the late 1800s.

National Highway routes in New South Wales include the Hume Highway between Sydney and Melbourne and the New England Highway route between Sydney and Brisbane.

 The DVD Journal | Quick Reviews: Thieves' Highway: The Criterion Collection
Cobb slashes a brutal profile as the broad-shouldered bully Mike Figlia, a San Francisco produce magnate fond of employing particularly savage tactics as a way of maximizing profits through the instilling of mortal fear.
Up until Cobb's appearance, the film is solidly anchored by the also-underappreciated Richard Conte as Nico Garcos, a globetrotting mechanic whose jubilant return to his parents' home in California is spoiled when he discovers his truck-driver father lost his legs in a suspicious accident up north.
Actually, at an even six feet, Cobb would be nobody's idea of a hulking presence nowadays, but here, as in On the Waterfront (1954), he used his girth and big, booming voice to stack on an extra six inches or so.

 Amazon.com: DVD: Thieves' Highway - Criterion Collection (1949)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Lee J. Cobb enjoys himself enormously as the chiseling boss at the Frisco market, Millard Mitchell is wry as Conte's angle-playing trucking partner, and Valentina Cortese adds a bright, sexy exoticism to the multi-layered duplicitous dame.
Jules Dassin's story Theives' Highway is an illustration of humans and their greed, which appears to be the motivation factor to break the compassionate fabric of moral value, ethics, and kindness in the true spirit of film noir.
Despite getting the Criterion treatment, 'Thieves Highway' is really just an average noir that gets off to a terrible start with a phoney-baloney scene of family reunion and suffers from a weak crime-does-not-pay ending shot behind Dassin's back, but the stuff inbetween is pretty good but not outstanding.

 DVD Savant Review: Thieves' Highway
Thieves' Highway is powerful but compromised film noir that bares some honest truths about making a living at the lower end of the entrepreneurial scale.
Richard Conte is excellent in his scenes with Lee J. Cobb, giving their "bluff & threaten" negotiations fine levels of complexity.
Criterion's disc of Thieves' Highway is another of their definitive presentations, with a flawless transfer of a great-looking B&W movie.

 slant // magazine.com: Film Review - Thieves' Highway
In his family's sunny kitchen, Nick finds his bride-to-be Polly (Barbara Lawrence) disappointed with his china doll gift (until she spies the even-more expensive ring hanging from its arm) and his father legless due to an accident caused by underhanded San Francisco produce market kingpin Mike Figlia (a devious Lee J. Cobb, exuding small-time shadiness).
Bent on exacting revenge, Nick teams up with Ed (Millard Mitchell), a trucker currently tending to his dad's rig, and the duo hatch a two-killings-for-the-price-of-one plan to travel to Frisco, where they can simultaneously deliver a truckload of sweet, highly coveted apples and dish out some bitter payback to the rotten Figlia.
Although Dassin's film is less an anti-capitalist screed than a cynical portrait of revenge, betrayal, and dubious dealings, money is nonetheless an insidious force throughout Nick's ordeal, from Figlia's backhanded market manipulations to Polly's money-grubbing.
