Watch Blanche Fury For Free

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

the audience applauded

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Blanche is a poor relation from a good family who lived during the 19th century. She resents that she's forced to make a living taking care of selfish rich folks who have employed her over the years. When she gets a letter from the rich part of the family inviting her to work for them, she bolts at the chance--since it COULD, if she plays her cards right, end up marrying into this wealth. When she arrives, it seems pretty obvious that these folks are considering such a marriage as well and Blanche's future seems assured. However, there are two problems. The cousin who she's supposed to marry as well as his father are rather nasty--and represent much of what Blanche hates. The other problem is that the illegitimate man who SHOULD be the heir to this fortune, Thorn (Stewart Granger) is much more handsome and virile--and Blanche falls for him. Not surprisingly, Blanche and Thorn have plans. What those plans are and how it all turns out is something you should see for yourself--as I would hate to spoil the film. However, suffice to say that the film does NOT do what the viewer expects! While "Blanche Fury" has its occasional slow spots, the film is pretty exciting and full of juicy soap opera elements. I think I liked it best because you did, in a way, sympathize with Blanche and Thorn--just not with their methods. They were not nice people--but you really disliked the folks that they disliked! Plus, they were decent in some ways--making them rather complex and like real people. Overall, a surprisingly good film--especially in the final thirty minutes.

This is another title I inexplicably missed out on over the years (a local Sunday matinée' TV screening and a late-night Italian-subtitled broadcast on the renowned "After Hours" program come to mind) which, having watched now, I was quite enthralled with. BLANCHE FURY is a typical yet reasonably absorbing Gothic melodrama – given added luster by its dazzling color photography, inventive décor, and even the odd stylistic flourish by Frenchman Allegret – made in the wake of the famed "Gainsborough school" romantic period pieces which began with THE MAN IN GREY (1943; a viewing of which accordingly followed this one in short order, since I had already by-passed it last year on a couple of anniversaries tied with star James Mason!) though, plot-wise, the film seems to have at least as much to do with that which is virtually the template for this type of fare i.e. "Wuthering Heights". In fact, here we have Stewart Granger (who was also in THE MAN IN GREY) forced to work as a stable-boy in his own family's estate – since he is illegitimate – while the present unrelated masters have taken up their name!; of course, he is contemptuous of this situation, though he finds a surprising ally – and love interest – in a cousin of the new landlords (Valerie Hobson) who turns up on the premises ostensibly to serve as governess to the little girl that stands to inherit the lot. Of course, she instantly charms the younger man of the house (a characteristically despicable Michael Gough) and proceeds to marry him, while carrying on with her Granger affair; about to be dismissed for his none-too-submissive attitude, our disgruntled hero conspires with Hobson to get rid of all the obstacles to their running the estate (since he intends to marry her himself) – the blame of which he proposes to lay at the door of a gypsy troupe who had been causing trouble in the area and even threatened the family specifically! – but, while she concedes to the death of Gough and his father, she takes exception to Granger's ruthlessness in the matter by wanting to dispose of the little girl as well. Needless to say, by reporting him to the proper authorities, she not only confesses to her own role in the plan, taints her reputation by being branded an adulteress but, most importantly, sacrifices her own happiness; the ultimate irony is that, just as Granger is being hanged, the little girl herself expires in a riding accident – leaving Hobson all alone, with-child (Granger's offspring), and sole owner of the tragic property! In conclusion, apart from the above-mentioned THE MAN IN GREY, I have SARABAND FOR DEAD LOVERS (1948) – yet another costumer featuring Stewart Granger – scheduled for the coming days

Blanche (Valerie Hobson) gets invited to Clare mansion by her uncle Simon (Walter Fitzgerald) to be governess to his grand-daughter Lavinia (Suzanne Gibbs). His son, Laurence (Michael Gough), stands to inherit the estate and sees Blanche as his future wife. The surname that they take is "Fury", after generations of descendants with that name, and Blanche is told to adopt the new surname. However, Simon is not a true "Fury". The only person with a claim to being a true "Fury" is Philip Thorn (Stewart Granger) who is the illegitimate son of Adam Fury. Simon keeps Philip employed as a servant and both he and Blanche are warned not to socialize by Simon. The story sees Philip trying to prove his rightful inheritance while Blanche is pushed into a marriage with Laurence.....however, destiny intervenes for Philip and Blanche....Its a good story thats well-acted by all. The version that I watched was slightly too dark in that I couldn't really make out what was happening in the night scenes. However, the colour, costume and settings add to the atmosphere - you may guess the ending but it doesn't take any of the enjoyment away from the story.It was a better film than I thought it would be.

I first discovered this little gem on tv a few years ago and loved it , i taped it and for some unknown reason kept watching it over and over it has a kind of hypnotic pull to i mean you have to really get into, i guess its not for everybody but it has been held in some regard up until recently,martin scorseses mentioned this as one of his guilty pleasures in film comment years ago and popular film presenter and critic from australia bill collins said while presenting another film that this would have to be one of the best british films from the forties.I totally agree it has a great gothic feel and the decor is marvelous as is the estate it was filmed on it has good solid performances and stewart granger is espescially good.Take note of the gypsy elements because at the time these points were crowd pullers other granger films to watch out for with similarities - "moonfleet","caravan","saraband for dead lovers","madonna of the seven moons"
