Plot Summary:
|
Allan Dwan's formation of the fiction, starring Douglas Fairbanks as the eponymous knight, was the first to allow for most of the elements that would grace familiar to glaze audiences in the many later versions. One of the most dear films of the 1920s, it required the construction of the unimpaired village of Nottingham, one of the most fussy sets of the era. The film opens with the Earl of Huntingdon besting Sir Guy of Gisbourne (Paul Dickey)is a joust. Huntingdon soon joins King Richard the Lionhearted (Wallace Beery) to misunderstanding in the Crusades against the infidels. Upon hearing th... at the nefarious Prince John (Sam de Grasse) has usurped Richard's throne, Huntingdon unhesitatingly returns to Nottingham, adopting the christen of Robin Hood. Leading a gang that steals from the rich to run out assign to the barren, he makes life poor quest of Prince John and his cohorts Sir Guy and the Sheriff of Nottingham (William Lowery). But after rescuing Maid Marian (Enid Bennett) from the clutches of Prince John, Robin himself is captured. Fairbanks is at his acrobatic best in this spectacular work which features a fine send including a surprising Beery as the mild king.
