By far my favorite of all Treasure Idland movie. Could very well be my favorite of Pirate movies. very hard to come by.

One of the greatest swashbucklers ever made. Witty, charming, and funny all at the same time.

Only marginally a pirate movie but then main character is the "Dread Pirate Roberts"
