Movie Reviews of Robin Hood
Movie Review: Douglas Fairbanks-Robin Hood DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
1922 (silent-version) The first version of Robin Hood, with Douglas Fairbanks is a great movie. My favorite scene is the jousting tournament at the beginning of the movie. The movie cost $1 million in 1922, a huge sum for a new art form at the time.
The movie is unintentionally funny at times, because the actor playing Richard the Lionhearted is Wallace Beery, who I know better as the gravelly voiced character actor from so many old westerns.
This story of Robin Hood, focuses more on the Crusades, Richard Lionheart and Robin Hood. Rather than the story of Robin Hood, Maid Marian, and Prince John. That most of us are more familiar with.
You can see where the 1938 movie, The Adventures of Robin Hood got its ideas for sets, as well as story points. Although, in 1938, they definitely had to have a better script writer.
So if you are a fan of silent movies, movie history, or the immortal Douglas Fairbanks. I'd definitely put this movie on my list as one to get.
This DVD may not work on all portable DVD players, it does however work on your PC, or any DVD player, attached to a TV set. I only add this, because the DVD, which I purchased from Amazon did not work correctly on my portable 7 inch Audiovox player. However, I had no trouble playing the disc, on any other player, I tested.
