| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzA decent swashbuckler of a notorious woman pirate of the 17th century. |
| User ReviewMarysia Kthis is one of the best movies ive ever seen i wish i could find it on dvd i love this movie |
| User ReviewGreg Wexcellent film de pirates : technicolor somptueux, scénario qui louvoie entre les clichés du genre, Jean Peters fantastique en femme pirate, le reste du casting à l'avenant |
| User ReviewPaul DNo soppy, melodramatic drivel here... It's got your romance, bterayal, revenge and redemption all packaged in an action packed adventure that could actually hold up pretty well in this era. I love Jean Peters! She is one hell of an unapolagetic heroine and watching her made me want to be a pirate myself... Louis Jordan is a beautiful man who isn't exactly what he seems to be and Capt. Blackbeard should really go up against Capt. Sparrow... if that were possible ;) |
| User ReviewxGary XJean Peters proves she can swashbuckle with the best of them in this entertaining old school tale of piracy on the high seas. Jacques Tourneur paces it perfectly with just the right mix of drama and action, with a strong cast of colourful characters and well constructed plot. Louis Jourdan cuts quite a dash as the French privateer who melts her heart, Herbert Marshall puts in a memorable performance as the soused doctor who acts as her counsel, and the lovely Debra Paget makes a spirited beauty. Best of all it avoids cliches, and just when you think it's going to descend into sappy sentimentality, it turns around and surprises. One of the better swashbucklers out there (but don't read the synopsis as it gives the entire plot away. Doh.) |

| User ReviewMichael TColorful pirate nonsense with Jean Peters trying hard to bring realism to the title role. |
