In the pre-Civil War New Orleans, roguish Irish gambler Stephen Fox (Rex Harrison) buys his way into society, something he couldn't do in his homeland because he is illegitimate. "The Foxes of Harrow," released in 1947, like a lot of Fox movies, is reminiscent of classics made at other studios. Fox was very reactive: when San Francisco was a hit, Fox followed with In Old Chicago; It Happened One Night - Fox does Love is News; and here we have Fox's low-budget answer to Gone with the Wind, The Foxes of Harrow. Based on the novel by Frank Yerby, it is purported to be the first novel by a black author purchased for films. Given that Fox paid $150,000 for it, I suspect the intention was to do the film in color, especially with Maureen O'Hara in it - I mean, what a waste in black and white. What happened, I don't know.

I don't have any doubt that this film was intended for Tyrone Power (and this may be why the budget was cut) - I mean, come on, Irish roots, Maureen O'Hara, period costumes, swordplay - it has his name all over it. He was busy in 1947 during this time, having gone from Captain from Castile into Nightmare Alley, so Rex Harrison plays the role of Stephen Fox, who was taken from his wealthy family when he was born illegitimate. In the 1800s, he becomes a successful gambler and eventually wins a Louisiana plantation from a compulsive gambler, though Fox turns around and purchases the property from the man's widow. He builds Harrow, intent on creating a new dynasty with the woman of his dreams, the beautiful Odalie 'Lilli' D'Arceneaux (O'Hara), the feisty daughter of a friend (Gene Lockhart).

Odalie finds him disgusting and wants nothing to do with him, but her father points out that the line between love and hate is a thin one. Once she confronts her feelings, the two marry. After a fight on their wedding night, during which she locks him out of her room, he knocks the door down. You can guess the rest. She never has anything to do with him again, though a child is born as a result of that night. The story continues from there, as Fox obsesses on his son and later becomes involved in the bank crash of 1821.

Slavery, voo-doo, prostitution, and kissing in front of a double bed (the Hayes office must have loved that one) are all part of "The Foxes of Harrow," and the film is fairly well done. It's a funny thing about miscasting - with a good enough actor, sometimes it works out. This isn't a usual role for Rex Harrison, but brilliant actor that he was, he pulls it off. He's quite dashing and powerful here. Maureen O'Hara is gorgeous, with magnificent costumes. Though she has a gentle, lilting voice, she does feisty well, and here she plays a rather cold woman who softens toward her son.

The big problem is that there are no sparks between Harrison and O'Hara. The chemistry just isn't there. Nevertheless, this is a good, entertaining film. Sigh. I just kept picturing Tyrone's flashing eyes, and talk about chemistry with Maureen O'Hara - oh, well, the best laid plans. A TCM host said that this was 20th Century Fox's answer to "Gone With The Wind". Well, if it was, it was a pretty weak answer. But there are scenes here that do remind me very much of GWTW (for example the spurned husband breaking down the bedroom door; a child afraid of the dark; then they tease us with the little boy jumping his horse in the rain...like Bonnie Butler, after which the boy falls downstairs...instead of Scarlett doing it ). Interestingly, the novel was written by an African-American author, and it is clear from his depictions of slaves that this is no GWTW scenario. However, having not read the novel, I don't know whether to blame the writer of the novel or the producer of the film for the numerous clear similarities between this film and GWTW. But what I can tell you is that this film doesn't handle any of those situations are well as GWTW.

The print shown on TCM was quite poor and this film definitely needs restoration.

As to the plot, it's okay. But here's what makes this film flop (and it did). Rhett Butler was a scoundrel, but had redeeming qualities. Here, Rex Harrison's character was a scoundrel, but with no redeeming qualities. There's no reason to like him. Similarly, with Scarlett O'Hara, we got deep into what made her tick. Here, Maureen O'Hara -- an actress I usually like a great deal -- we learn little about what makes her tick; it's a superficial role. And frankly, there's really no one else in the film that's the least bit interesting.

I plodded through it. Maybe you shouldn't. 7cb1d79195
