He has enemies, including Rip Darrow (Wendell Corey), a saloon owner whose father T.C. took land from. His headstrong daughter, Vance (Barbara Stanwyck), has a life-long friend in one of the Mexicans, her heart set on Rip, and dad’s promise she’ll run the Furies someday. Her hopes are smashed by Rip’s revenge, a gold-digger who turns T.C.’s head, and T.C.’s own murderous imperialism. Is Vance to be cursed by fury and hatred?.

As good as Mann’s best
This Antony Mann Western is little-known compared to his collaborations with James Stewart or Man of the West or a good number of other Mann films, but it’s an equal to his best work. Barbara Stanwyck and Walter Huston (in his final performance) star as a daughter and her father, powerful ranchers who own the titular land. Their relationship, much as the title suggests, has a psycho-sexual tinge. When men call on Stanwyck, her father balks. And when hoochies cling to Huston, well, then things get real ugly! The Furies shows Mann bringing a lot of his noir skills to the Western genre. One can easily see how that genre influenced Mann’s characterizations, but, in terms of film-making, he had largely moved on. The Furies is just dark and often nasty. I have to wonder why the film is so little known. My thought is that almost all Westerns feature male protagonists, with the most notably exception being Johnny Guitar. I’m not going to rag too much on that film, because I do like it, but The Furies is far superior. Stanwyck was rarely better. I might actually rate this as her best. Huston went out on one of his best performances. It’s hard to believe he died before the film was even released with as much energy as he shows. My only real complaint with the movie is that it peaks too early. The standoff at the Herrera’s fort is one of the greatest sequences in the history of the genre, and it’s so good that the remainder of the film drags a bit. Still, a masterpiece. Thanks again, Criterion!

OVER-WROUGHT MELODRAMATICS…DISAPPOINTING ANTHONY MANN WESTERN
Rambling Over-Acting and Psychologically Over-Wrought.

That Smothers the Bleak Cinematography and Adult Sensibilities.

Barbara Stanwyck Tries to Anchor Walter Huston’s Bellowing and Gyrations.

But Huston Plays the Patriarch so Over-the-Top and Belligerent that You would Think its His Last Movie…It is.

Wendell Corey is Miscast as a Hard-as-Nails Gambler. Gilbert Roland Plays Better and His Scenes with Stanwyck come off the Best.

Alliances Shift and Deep-Rooted Affections and Respect are Unsteady.

Judith Anderson has a Small Part and Makes the Most of it and is Part of the “New” Violence that Mann is Known for.

Familiar Faces Abound and the High Production Value is Everywhere.

But the Story is one of Low-Intrigue and Boils Down to Family Foundations and Strong Payback and Back Again.

Frustratingly Fraught to Freudian Formulas and Essentially a “Woman’s Western”.

The Movie Does have an Edge to it that Foreshadows the 1950’s Maturation of the Genre.

But Overall there is something Flat and Forced about the Whole Thing.

Anthony Mann would Make 2 Other Westerns in 1950. “Devil’s Doorway” and “Winchester 73.

Both are Far Superior to this Disappointment.

Still it’s Packed with a Production Quality that Can’t Be Ignored…And is…

Worth a Watch.
