Fury is a 1936 film noir film which tells the story of a decent man who descends into ruthlessness when he narrowly escapes a lynching and seeks retribution on the people of the small town who persecuted him. It stars Sylvia Sidney, Spencer Tracy, Walter Abel, Bruce Cabot, Edward Ellis and Walter Brennan; and was loosely based on the events surrounding the Brooke Hart murder.
The movie was adapted by Bartlett Cormack and Fritz Lang from the story Mob Rule by Norman Krasna. Fury was Lang's first American film.
