	The DVD Journal Quick Reviews: The Ox-Bow Incident: Fox Studio Classics
		Fox's DVD release of The Ox-Bow Incident, part of the "Fox Studio Classics" imprint, features a solid transfer (1.33:1 OAR) from a restored source-print that looks nearly flawless, while audio is clean and clear in monaural DD 2.0.
		It clocks in at a brief 75 minutes, was shot very quickly on soundstages and at Fox's Malibu ranch (extensive location work wasn't line-itemed), and doesn't feature a retinue of the day's major stars, with the exception of Henry Fonda.
		It's a testament to Wellman that he finally took his project to Daryl F. Zanuck at Fox — thanks to a fistfight on a hunting trip, the two had not been on speaking terms for a few years.

	DVD Verdict Review - The Ox-Bow Incident
		The most extraordinary thing about The Ox-Bow Incident is that it was made only four years after John Ford's Stagecoach (1939) and preceded the Gary Cooper/Grace Kelly classic High Noon (1952) by nearly a decade.
		But The Ox-Bow Incident came first, and it has the same psychological density and raw simplicity, not to mention a similarly brief running time and cloistered production design (the traditional Western is about expansive vistas) as the later film.
		The contrast is striking, and the revelation that the film negative no longer exists ought to make us thankful The Ox-Bow Incident has been delivered to the digital realm as beautifully as it has.

	DVD review of Ox-Bow Incident, The - DVD Town
		"The Ox-Bow Incident" builds to a shattering climax and is unrelenting, almost brutal, in its determination to be both realistic and faithful to the book.
		Taking its cue from the title, the movie is short and to the point, mainly following the one "incident" and wasting little energy on unnecessary characterizations or extraneous action.
		The people at Fox do a good job preserving their old films, and they do an equally good job when they have someone clean them up and remaster them.

	The Ox-Bow Incident (1943)
		The Ox-Bow Incident (1943) is a grim, low-budget Western masterpiece from director William A. Wellman - based upon the famed novel by Walter Van Tilburg Clark of the same name.
		This film also shares similarities with the Oscar-winning short western film La Rivière du hibou (1962, Fr.) - aka Incident at Owl Creek - its title, its lighting and noirish atmosphere, and its nihilistic theme about the wrongful hanging of an innocent man.
		Produced and written for the screen by Lamar Trotti, this is an intense, blunt, and downbeat examination of frontier 'justice' with simple characters that represent various philosophical stances, opinions, or attitudes.

	USCCB Reviews - Ox-Bow Incident, The
		Ox-Bow Incident, The -- Thoughtful Western set in 1885 Nevada where a couple of cowpokes (Henry Fonda and Harry Morgan) join in the search for a rustler reported to have killed a rancher, then try to stop the lynching of three unfortunates (Dana Andrews, Anthony Quinn and Francis Ford) taken prisoner along the way.
		Directed by William A. Wellman, the result succeeds in showing the human cost that results whenever people presume to take the law in their own hands.

		THE OX-BOW INCIDENT (1943) B/W 75m dir: William A. Wellman
		Some critics complained about the 'claustrophobic' look and feel of the picture because of its set-bound image, but it is exactly that atmosphere that helps to create the mood of pervasive doom and maniacal intent of the two dozen 'average citizens' to commit a capital crime."

	Amazon.com: The Ox-Bow Incident (Signet Classic): Books: Walter Prescott Webb,Walter van Tilburg Clark
		Written in the 1940's, the Ox Bow Incident has clear implications for what was then a rash of lynchings across the South (and all too many in what we today think of as the "North--Illinois, for example).
		THE OX-BOW INCIDENT is a serious work of fiction, wrapped in the familiar disguise of a Western, complete with horses, dialect, guns, ropes, sheriff and posses.
		Clark then turns this well worn premise inside out and uses it as a foundation on which to build a novel which explores what justice means and whether it can ever be implemented outside of established rules and procedures, how one acts justly as part of a group, and the causes of mob violence.

	Ox-Bow Incident
		The indictment of vigilantism in the Ox-Bow Incident rests importantly on the premise that proper allocation of roles is a necessary component in the orderly administration of criminal justice.
		The Ox-Bow Incident is a Western that tells of a vigilante "posse" that lynches three innocent men for a murder that has not been committed.
		The division of official functions in the legal system is required, not simply because the total of functions cannot be performed without division of labor, but because division of viewpoints enhances the management of persuasion regarding the numerous steps in the sequence of official actions that constitute the orderly administration of criminal justice.

	The Ox-Bow Incident (1943)
		In contrast to the familiar Western device of the hero obliged to take the law into his own hands, The Ox-Bow Incident is a grim, messy cautionary tale, almost an anti-Western, about the dangers of vigilante justice and mob rule.
		Recent incidents of cattle rustling have a small Nevada town jumpy, and news that a popular local rancher has been murdered has the townsfolk up in arms.
		In the absence of the sheriff, a self-appointed posse forms under the leadership of an ambiguously disreputable ex-Confederate officer, despite the ineffectual protests of some, including the town judge.
