Young Tyrone Power is given grief by his wealthy girlfriend Gene Tierney, because she wants him to quit "loafing" and get a high-powered job and acquire a lot of money that she can be proud of. He loves her, but a brush with death on the final day of WWI left him filled with questions about the purpose of life. He moves to Paris to find himself. During this same time a friend, Anne Baxter, gets married to a simple man, they have a child and are quite happy together. I'm not going to get all into the rest of the story, you can do that yourself, but I liked THE RAZOR'S EDGE. It's a pretty slow starter, but it's redeemed by a very good second half.
The reason I watched THE RAZOR'S EDGE was, as you might remember, I was curious about how Anne Baxter won over Teresa Wright from
THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES for Best Supporting Actress...and I'm still curious. Anne Baxter's performance was very good, but not near as perfect as Teresa Wright's.
