Intense scene from Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver's film ‘Marriage Story' is great for scaring away wolves, apparently

A tense scene between Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver in their 2019 film 'Marriage Story' was great bait for 2020 Oscar voters but apparently there's another wild species that's not a fan. According to a report published by the Wall Street Journal, a fight scene from Noah Baumbach-directed drama is among several audio clips that are being broadcast by the US Department of Agriculture on a loud speaker over farmlands across the west coast to scare off wolves that have been eating livestock from local farms. Part of the inspiration for using the fight scenes between Driver and Johansson from the film are to illustrate to the wolves that humans are to be feared, Paul Wolf, a USDA district supervisor in Oregon, told the WSJ. 'I need the wolves to respond and know that, hey, humans are bad,' Wolf said. CNN has reached out to a representative for Baumbach for comment. The WSJ reported that gray wolves are 'terrorizing livestock herds across the American West,' and that the USDA has been attempting to save the cattle by broadcasting alarming sounds from drones, including fireworks, gunshots and select pieces of pop culture. They have also played AC/DC's 'Thunderstruck' and Five Finger Death Punch's 'Blue on Black' to try to scare away wolves they spot from their positions overhead, according to the publication. CNN has reached out to the USDA for more information. 'Marriage Story' premiered in theaters in 2019. It stars Driver, Johansson and Laura Dern, and follows a couple who are struggling through an intense divorce. The film was nominated for six Oscars, including best picture and original screenplay, with Dern winning the statuette in 2020 for best performance by an actress in a supporting role.

The USDA Is Using Scarlett Johansson And Adam Driver To Scare Off Wolves

This cow-saving tactic might make you howl with laughter. The United States Department of Agriculture is using audio of actors Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver to scare off wolves, The Wall Street Journal reported last week. In the wildly amusing report, the outlet explained that gray wolves in the American West are wreaking havoc on livestock. 'It's basically like driving through Burger King, easy pickings for them,' Mary Rickert, the owner of Prather Ranch in Northern California, told the Journal. Although Rickert has lost as many as 40 calves to the carnivores, she can't just go John Wick on them. The wolves are endangered — which means it's illegal to harm them. But the USDA has come up with a pretty creative way to keep herds of sheep and cattle from becoming a pack's all-you-can-eat buffet. Essentially, the agency is using drones equipped with spotlights, loudspeakers and 'thermal cameras that can reveal any wolf lurking in the darkness.' When the flying bot spots a wolf near a rancher's animals, it uses the light and the loudspeaker to scare it back into the woods. Some of the recordings played on the drones' loudspeakers make logical sense — like loud fireworks or gunshots. But others are just straight-up silly, and include AC/DC's 'Thunderstuck' and the explosive fight between Johansson's and Driver's characters in Noah Baumbach's 2019 film, 'Marriage Story.' 'I need the wolves to respond and know that, hey, humans are bad,' a USDA district supervisor (who is totally a human and not a canine) named Paul Wolf told the Journal. As goofy as this all sounds, the Journal says the recordings seem to be working. The outlet reports that drones were deployed to an area in Oregon where '11 cows were killed by wolves there in a 20-day period.' After 85 days of the drones' booming recordings — which hopefully included Johansson screeching, 'You gaslighted me; you're a fucking villain!' and Driver yelling, 'I was hot shit and I wanted to fuck everybody, but I didn't!' — only two cows were killed. Although the idea of using a movie scene to scare off wild animals is a bit goofy, the fight scene in 'Marriage Story' displays raw human emotions, and Johansson and Driver did deliver intense performances. 'They've lost their voices; they've lost a sense of who they are,' Baumbach described the scene to Entertainment Weekly in 2019. 'They're trying to figure out what they believe anymore. And that's a dangerous place, I think, for a couple to find themselves.' Related...

Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver Fighting in ‘Marriage Story' Is Being Used by the USDA to Scare Off Wolves and Save Cattle: ‘They Need to Know Humans Are Bad'

A new report from The Wall Street Journal reveals that audio of Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver screaming at each other in Noah Baumbach's 'Marriage Story' is being used by the United States Department of Agriculture to scare off wolves from killing cattle and scaring livestock on farms across the America. The fight scene is the most emotionally volatile moment in Baumbach's 2019 drama, which earned both Johansson and Driver Oscar nominations. Per the WSJ: 'Riding to the rescue are drone cowhands, whose quadcopters have thermal cameras that can reveal any wolf lurking in the darkness and bathe it in a spotlight. A loudspeaker broadcasts alarming sounds like fireworks, gunshots and people arguing. One recording is of the fight between Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver in the movie 'Marriage Story.''

'Wolf hazing,' as the practice is called, also uses loud music like AC/DC's 'Thunderstruck' to scare off deadly wolves. The USDA has relied on drones because gray wolves had long been on the federal government's list of endangered species. The process seems to be working. As the WSJ reported: 'Drones were deployed in the Klamath Basin of southern Oregon after 11 cows were killed by wolves there in a 20-day period. Over the next 85 days when drones were on patrol, only two were killed.' 'Marriage Story' stars Johansson and Driver as a couple going through a bitter divorce and custody battle over their son. The movie earned critical acclaim after premiering at the 2019 Venice Film Festival. Variety's Owen Gleiberman named 'Marriage Story' the second best movie of 2019. 'Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson, in spectacular performances that work together with searing intimacy, enact the anger, pride, despair, and passion of a couple who tear their relationship apart, and their souls too, even as they both struggle to remain whole inside,' Gleiberman wrote. ''Marriage Story' tells the story of divorce in our time, and in doing so it earns a place next to those harrowing and heartrending texts of separation, 'Kramer vs. Kramer' and 'Scenes from a Marriage.''
