WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Hello friends! In the
current environment it is getting
more and more difficult for us to
maintain the website. Our income has
severely been diminished by the
increasing number of DVD/Blu-ray
producers selling discs from their
own sites. At present they don't
offer us affiliate commissions which
are our major source of income
(Amazon, Barnes and Noble etc.). To
continue producing comparisons,
reviews and articles, we
regretfully
request YOUR
assistance in the form of small
monthly donations. We have started a
Patreon page with the hopes that
some of our followers would be
willing to donate to keep DVDBeaver
alive. We are a small niche, so your
generosity is vital to our
existence. |

(aka "Fox Fire")
Directed by Joseph Pevney
USA 1955
I don't care what they call you! I only know that you're all man... and all mine! While vacationing in Arizona, beautiful socialite Amanda Lawrence (Jane Russell, The Outlaw) meets handsome Jonathan Dartland (Jeff Chandler, War Arrow), an engineer at the local copper mine. The whirlwind courtship is culminated in a marriage hotly contested by Amanda s mother (Frieda Inescort, The Alligator People), who has learned that Dartland is a half-breed Apache Indian. To complicate matters, Amanda impulsively turns for sympathy to Dr. Hugh Slater (Dan Duryea, Scarlet Street), a life-long friend of Dartland's, who falls in love with her. Stylishly directed by Joseph Pevney (Female on the Beach), Foxfire features a top-notch cast that includes Mara Corday (Tarantula!) and Barton MacLane (The Maltese Falcon). *** Privileged Amanda (Jane Russell) meets and falls in love with half-Apache, half-Caucasian miner Jonathan Dartland (Jeff Chandler), while traveling through Arizona. What's significant about the relationship is that Amanda has always disliked Native Americans. She gets past her old feelings and the couple marries. But racial tension continues to intrude from both whites and Native Americans. Amanda also grows close to a local doctor, Hugh (Dan Duryea), sending Dartland into a fit of jealousy. |

Comments: |
NOTE: The below Blu-ray captures were taken directly from the Blu-ray disc.
As Kat Ellinger reminds us in the commentary - Foxfire was shot
in Technicolor (3-strip) and
Kino Lorber's
Blu-ray
in 1080P with a supportive bitrate exports those colors brilliantly. It
is the best feature of the presentation which can tend to look a bit
fragmented in reproducing the grain. But the depth and detail are strong
elements to the visuals. Without analyzing under a microscope this
easily towers above SD/ |
