Amazon.com essential video:
That's Errol Flynn looking dashing in the trees of Sherwood Forest in this 1938 swashbuckler about the hero who steals from the rich and gives to the poor. As far as the movies are concerned, Flynn is the definitive Robin Hood, and this Warner Bros. film directed by Michael Curtiz (Casablanca) and William Keighley (Each Dawn I Die) is a pulse-quickener with a perfect actor for every role: Olivia de Havilland as a beautiful Maid Marian, Claude Rains as an evil prince, Basil Rathbone as a snotty Guy of Gisbourne. A colorful, rich film that brings all the familiar, key scenes to life. --Tom Keogh
Amazon.com:
Dashing Errol Flynn is the definitive Robin Hood in the most gloriously swashbuckling version of the legendary story. Warner Brothers reunited Michael Curtiz, their top-action director, with the winning team of Flynn and Olivia de Havilland (Maid Marian) and perennial villain Basil Rathbone as the aristocratic Sir Guy of Gisbourne, and pulled out all stops for the production. It became their costliest film to date, a grandly handsome, glowing Technicolor adventure set to a stirring, Oscar-winning score by Erich Wolfgang Korngold. The decadent Prince John (a smoothly conniving Claude Rains) takes advantage of King Richard's absence to tax the country into poverty but meets his match in the medieval guerrilla rebel Robin Hood and his Merry Men of Sherwood Forest, who rise up and, to quote a cliché coined by the film, "steal from the rich and give to the poor." Stocky Alan Hale Sr. plays Robin's loyal friend Little John (a part he played in Douglas Fairbanks's silent version), Eugene Palette the portly Friar Tuck, and Melville Cooper the bumbling Sheriff of Nottingham. Flynn's confidence and cocky charm makes for a perfect Robin Hood, and his easygoing manner is a marvelous counterpoint to Rathbone's regal bearing and courtly diction. The film climaxes in their rousing battle-to-the-finish sword fight, a magnificently choreographed scene highlighted by Curtiz's inventive use of shadows cast upon the castle walls. --Sean Axmaker

I decided to purchase this movie based on the excitement with which people reviewed it. I read in one review approximately this: "Errol Flynn plays Robin the way Robin should be played: consider the scene where Robin walks into the castle where Prince John and his followers are dining, and throws a dead deer down on the table before them, knowing full well the penalty for poaching is death. His eyes shift to the guards by the doors -- not with fear or hesitation, but anticipation!"

This is one of the greatest films of all time, folks. I don't know if I've ever seen such cast camaraderie in a film cast before (the only other occurrence that comes to mind is "Rio Bravo" with John Wayne, Dean Martin, Rick Nelson, Angie Dickenson, and Walter Brennen). It permeates through this film and it is one of the reasons that this film in particular has become a classic and probably one of the top ten best movies of all time. It is beautifully shot, perfectly acted, and the score is gorgeous. ... Read More

I bought this as a gift for someone who loves the classic films. Together we must have seen this film before at least a dozen times. I wasn't expecting a lot of difference between the DVD version and the blu-ray version but I was wrong. The colors and details of the imagery just pop out at you! Blu-ray is the perfect showcase for this classic!
