Imagine a vintage Technicolor version of this classic tale starring Errol Flynn (hero) and Basil Rathbone (villain), and you can pretty much see this one without even watching it. The plot’s a parade of clichés and the dialogue is pure corn, but if you’re into the whole swashbuckling action thing this has some of the finest examples of the art from its Hollywood heyday. Mildly amusing.
