Blanche Fury is a 1948 British Technicolor drama film directed by Marc Allégret and starring Valerie Hobson, Stewart Granger and Michael Gough.

Blanche Fuller (Valerie Hobson) is a beautiful and spirited woman employed as a domestic servant after the death of her parents.

After a succession of failed positions, she receives an invitation from her rich uncle Simon, whom she has never met due to a family break instigated by her father, to become governess to his granddaughter Lavinia.

On arriving at Clare Hall, her uncle's impressive country estate, she first encounters Philip Thorn (Stewart Granger).

Thorn bitterly resents being employed by strangers on an estate that he thinks should be his, and for several months has had a lawyer searching for proof of his legitimacy.

After the inquest, Thorn is obsessed with the absolute possession of Clare, telling Blanche that it is fate that their children will inherit "our house."

Despite warning him she will destroy him if he harms Lavinia, heir to the estate and final obstacle to his ambition, Blanche discovers him encouraging the child to make a dangerous jump with her pony.

The deadline to pay off the mortgages was approaching; otherwise foreclosure and eviction would follow, adversely affecting both his children and his pregnant mistress, Emily Sandford.

Rush wore a false wig and whiskers, but failed to disguise his body sufficiently; the butler, the wounded Mrs. Jermy and the housemaid Elizabeth Chestney survived to identify him.

She later recalled "I had just had our son, who was born mentally handicapped, and he meant the film as a sort of 'loving gift', making me back into a leading lady, which was a wonderful idea.

[14] The location scenes for the film were shot at Wootton Lodge (which stood in for Clare Hall in the story), a magnificent three-storey Georgian mansion at Upper Ellastone on the Derbyshire–Staffordshire border and on the surrounding Weaver Hills, as well as on Dunstable Downs, Bedfordshire.

Havelock-Allan later acknowledged the film was a disappointment:We took far too long over Blanche Fury, it cost too much money and it didn't 'work' and never attracted any great audience.
