The Furies
Hollywood: Paramount Pictures, 1950. Vintage studio still photograph from the 1950 film, showing actors Barbara Stanwyck, Gilbert Roland, and Blanche Yurka. With a date stamp reading 12 AUG 25 50 on the bottom left corner of the verso, along with a Paramount blindstamp.
Based on the 1948 novel by Niven Busch. A tense, vengeful Western which owes as much to archetypes of Greek tragedy and Shakespearean drama as it does to the conventions of the genre, following a rancher's strong-willed daughter who seeks revenge on her father for the wrongful hanging of her best friend. One of the few films in the noir canon that is also a Western.
Set in New Mexico, shot on location in Arizona.
8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with a small closed tear to the top edge, repaired with white paper tape on the verso.
Criterion Collection 435. Pitts 1478. Scorsese, A Personal Journey Through American Movies. Selby US. Spicer US.
