In a scene straight from a 'Believe it or Not' episode, the intense quarrel between Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver's characters in 2019's critically acclaimed Marriage Story is being to keep the wolves away from cattle in Oregon.

The United States Department of Agriculture is using several audio clips including that scene to play on a loud speaker over farmlands across the west coast to scare off wolves that have been eating many cattle and livestock from the area, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.

The scene, which earned both the lead actors Oscar nominations captures a brutally raw and intense moment in the fight scene where both the husband and the wife blame each other for the breakdown of their relationship.

"I need wolves to respond and know that, hey, humans are bad," said a USDA district supervisor from Oregon.

The practise is termed as 'Wolf hazing' and the department is also using other loud music like AC/DC 'Thunderstruck' and Five Finger Death Punch’s 'Blue on Black' and was adopted after wolves killed 11 cows during a 20-day period.

Marriage story, directed by Noah Baumbach, also stars Laura Dern, Alan Alda, Ray Liotta, Julie Hagerty, and Merritt Wever in supporting roles. It earned six nominations at the 92nd Academy Awards. Dern won the Academy Award, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild Award, BAFTA Award and Critics' Choice Movie Award, all in the Best Supporting Actress category.
