The movie's jarring violence pales beside the clashes of egos and the disputes between new banking interests and age-old claims on the land.

New Yorker
A decisive building block for the Stewart westerns, but with an Athena-like force of its own

CinePassion
... a genre hybrid: a psychological western by way of a Gothic melodrama, with a dark, shadowy style right out of Mann's earlier film noirs.

Of [Mann's] various transitional films, none is more consistently fascinating or misunderstood than the masterpiece The Furies.

Combustible Celluloid
Complementing the bravura performance by Stanwyck and Huston, there is a typically full-blooded Franz Waxman score to raise the emotional ante yet higher.

Rating: B --
Mann raises the bar for westerns, making them more adult and dramatic.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Anthony Mann's high-pitched, oedipal Western whiplashes from noir to romance to screwball with starling dashes of violence... -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly
Product Description:
Director Anthony Mann's dark, psychological western tells the story of a ranch owner T.C. Jeffords (Walter Huston) at odds with his upstart daughter Vanca (Barbara Stanwyck) over matters of marriage and ultimately land. The mythic grandeur of the Wild West is superimposed with the the soul-churning struggles of Greek tragedy in this unusually intense frontier film. THE FURIES' stark black-and-white cinematography was nominated for an Academy Award.
