    First saw this on TCM by mistake - thank goodness!

    I read these books as a teenager and loved them - I think I loved the movie more. I first saw this movie on TCM. I had tuned in and was expecting something else (got the movie times wrong - 3 hour time difference?) I wasn't going to watch but started to anyway and stayed for the whole time. Very engaging - no spoilers from me, though. Gregory Peck is so convincing as the captain (he's wonderful in ALL of his films if you ask me) and I found the battle scenes, especially the first one, thrilling. The escape at the end is as well. The "special" effects are incredible for the time. Virginia Mayo is quite beautiful as Lady Wellesley, too. I believe they were setting the ending up to continue these adventures, but they never made a sequel. Back in the day the movie studios didn't rely so heavily on sequels to make a buck! This is a fun watch! Oh, and the transfer and disc are superb!

    Beautiful Swashbuckling

    There's a lot of movies where you go "They sadly don't make these anymore," but that's really true for this. When it looks this good, it really makes you wonder why they stopped.

    Gregory Peck at his best.

    One of Gregory Peck best swashbuckling films films and a lovely story to boot, this is a favourite of mine and I really enjoyed watching it again, if you enjoy seafarers this is one of best to watch, if you haven't seen it before you are truly in for a treat.
