Much better than its reputation would lead you to believe...

Screen-version of George Agnew Chamberlain's book concerns determined farm boy in rural small town America training two prize-winning mules to drive; pretty soon, he and the two stubborn creatures are hauling out logs from the forest and making $15/day, which irks the man he bought the mules from as well as his own evil stepbrother. Director F. Hugh Herbert, who also adapted the screenplay, does a terrific job setting the mood of the piece--frisky but also angst-ridden. Lon McCallister is the polite juvenile battling with his father's crude wife and her son for his dad's respect, later butting heads with farmer Tom Tully (in a convincingly angry, blow-hard performance). Although a simple tale of a boy's love for two mules, Herbert keeps the scenario busy with melodrama. Thankfully, it isn't overly-folksy, and the villains (including Anne Revere, in her least-sympathetic role ever) are surprisingly effective. The romance subplot between Tully's blonde, beautiful daughter June Haver and skinny McCallister doesn't quite work (she seems a bit out of his league), but little Natalie Wood is fun to have around spying on her neighbors and getting all the juicy gossip. Solid contract-picture from Fox has an undeserved poor reputation (with its title causing most of the derision), but I was entertained. Look fast for Marilyn Monroe as "Betty" on the church steps. **1/2 from ****

When you want a mule to give 110%

This rustic film, something not usually made by 20th Century Fox has come down in screen legend as the debut of Marilyn Monroe. She's very briefly seen paddling a canoe after church. As it turns out she's not the only tragic legend in Scudda Hoo! Scudda Hay! Natalie Wood who plays June Haver's little sister and a little miss fixit is also here.

Young Lon McCallister quits his home and hearth leaving it to mean stepmother Anne Revere and her lugnut of a son Robert Karnes. Almost on a whim he buys a pair of mules who won't work for anyone else but him. Still he's in debt to miserly Tom Tully for them. And Tully is not a man to give anyone a break even with daughter June Haver falling for McCallister.

The man who teaches McCallister about how to work and the dignity of the mule is Walter Brennan playing another of his rustic old timers with lots of wisdom. He also has a nice taste for booze which nearly costs McCallister his mules.

Except for the Francis series, Scudda Hoo! Scudda Hay! is the only film I know that's about mules. And McCallister's two don't have quite the talents that Francis had. Incidentally the title is what Walter Brennan teaches McCallister to say if he wants his mules to give that 110%.

McCallister and Haver make a nice young couple. Not the greatest of films but a worthy debut for a legend.

Enjoyable old-school film.

I was curious to see Marilyn Monroe's (one-second) film debut, and when I noticed Natalie Wood's name in the credits, I got drawn in. It's an odd film: an "East of Eden" type soap opera plot involves step-brothers who vie for possession of vivacious blonde June Haver ... and a team of mules. The characters are all quite gruff with each other, there's lots of angry yelling and little room for sentimentality. The title suggests a screwball comedy or maybe a musical, but the film is far from either. The tone is rather dark, with little Natalie Wood providing welcome bits of comic relief. The acting can be hammy in parts. It seems like it should never work, but it somehow does all come together and make for a watchable, enjoyable film. Bonus points for the proto-feminist attitude of June Haver's character; I thought that was a nice, unexpected touch from a film of this era. Watching in pandemic 2020, this movie drew me into its little world and made me strangely nostalgic for a time I've never known.

Scudda Hoo Makes Good Hay ***1/2

An enjoyable film dealing with a male Cinderella-like relationship. Fed up with his nagging wife and bullying son, a man heads out to sea and leaves his son $20.00 to fend for himself.

The film is a gem as it shows the warm relationships that can develop with still another family and a man's determination to get those mules to work.

Anne Revere appears briefly as the wicked wife but she is memorable once again. As her n'eer-do-well son, Bob Karnes, is miserable at his best. Lon McAllister shines as the step-son and Natalie Wood steals the show as a precocious youngster who always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Another good performance is given by Tom Tully as as a nasty neighbor, and Walter Brennan is in fine form as an understanding friend to the McAllister role.

misinformed review

A reviewer writes of his surprise at seeing Walter Brennan not in his "Real McCoys" character. Never saw "My Darling Clementine"? A John Ford classic with Henry Fonda as Wyatt Earp??? Brennan plays the head of the notorious Clanton gang, even shoot one Earp brother in the back.

Trivia
This is generally considered to be Marilyn Monroe's screen debut, although most of her footage was cut. She is visible just for a fleeting second or less as she descends the church steps and says, "Hi, Rad," to June Haver's character as everyone is coming out of church on Sunday morning.
