The Male Animal (1942)

The trustees of Midwestern University have forced three teachers out of their jobs for being suspected communists. Trustee Ed Keller has also threatened mild mannered English Professor Tommy Turner, because he plans to read a controversial piece of prose in class. Tommy is upset that his wife Ellen also suggested he not read the passage. Meanwhile, Ellen's old boyfriend, the football player Joe Ferguson, comes to visit for the homecoming weekend. He takes Ellen out dancing after the football rally, causing Tommy to worry that he will lose her to Joe.

I wish Henry had just punched Olivia in the face, she was a whiney irritating woman.

The stagebound film has its amusing moments, solid performances and a still timely message about academic freedom.

predictable but enjoyable enough, with actors who are fun to watch. I know the free-speech/academic plot is mentioned first in most reviews, but in my sleepy state I mostly followed the romantic bits.

This is a highly regarded classic, and I am not sure why I am not enthralled with it. It's okay, but I just don't see anything special with it. There is no chemistry between Henry Fonda and Olivia de Havilland. Fonda is great, but de Havilland gets very irritating, as does Jack Carson. Eugene Pallette and Hattie McDaniel provide excellent support. Otherwise, it's pretty routine.

Tuesday, July 22, 2014 (1942) The Male Animal COMEDY DRAMA Totally outdated which wouldn't be watchable had I not recognized it's two veteran actors of Henry Fonda and Olivia De Havilland. Adapted from the play by James Thurber and Elliott Nugent, which involves English professor, Tommy Turner (Fonda) refusing to be dictated by school board, allowing one of his students, Michael Barnes (Herbert Anderson) to publish controversial editorial. Meanwhile, both Tommy and his wife, Ellen Turner (Olivia de Havilland) are also inviting an old colleague, named Joe (Jack Carson) who used to be one of Michigan's biggest football college stars. And Joe conveniently had just broken up with his wife too. Did I mention that this movie is outdated since most testosterone guys these days, particularly jocks enjoy sleeping around even if they're married. 2 out of 4 stars
