Storyline:This film provided Sirk""s clear commentary and critique of the underlying hollowness and shallowness of American society in the placid 1950s, and misfit lives stunted and corrupted by mental anguish, alcoholism, sexual frustration, and corruptible materialistic wealth.After methodically washing his hands, Szell repeatedly and calmly asks he baffling question: "Is it safe?"Before oral surgery, he painfully digs around with an implement in Babe""s mouth, then plugs in his loud-sounding, whirring drill (the horror is accentuated by POV shots).The other seven nominations included three Best Actor nominations (Clark Gable, Charles Laughton, and Franchot Tone, who split the vote and gave the award to Victor McLaglen forThe Informer) - a unique accomplishment (although Tone""s performance was more like a supporting role, but the awards category hadn""t been created yet), Best Director (Frank Lloyd), Best Screenplay (Talbot Jennings, Jules Furthman and Carey Wilson), Best Film Editing (Margaret Booth), and Best Score.[Note: He categorizes women as either pure saints or trashy whores.] Skeptical of her account and prejudiced against the no-good partygirl, he believes that she is using him "for a shakedown.It goes with the turf.Games are fun.Nick: What about boxing? That""s a game.Was that fun too?...Catherine: Boxing was fun, ""til Manny died.Nick: How did you feel when he died?Catherine: I loved him.It hurt.Nick: How did you feel when I told you Johnny Boz had died?Catherine: I felt like someone had read my book and was playing a game.
