Movie Reviews of The Black Swan

Movie Review: Ty Seas
Summary: 4 Stars

Power is in top form in this brisk, lushly colorful pirate picture. He's terrifically charming, which is odd as he plays kind of a drunken lout. But he's positively low-key compared to the rest of the cast who act up a storm. It's especially amusing to see the famously debonair George Sanders hamming it up as a bearded baddie. Maureen O'Hara is almost too convincingly haughty to root for her as Ty's romantic booty. But she's along for a great commentary track with Rudy Belmer.

Summary of The Black Swan

Tyrone Power and Maureen O???Hara cross romantic swords in this epic Oscar?(r)-winning* swashbuckler about a pirate determined to reform his thieving ways ??" after he steals one last heart!

Recently reformed pirate Jamie Boy (Power) is supposed to be helping the new Governor of Jamaica, Captain Morgan, rid the Caribbean of black-hearted buccaneers. But when Jamie falls head over keel for the heavenly ??" but hotheaded ??" Lady Margaret (O???Hara), he gives caution the heave-ho, kidnaps Margaret and sets sail for the adventure of a lifetime! Packed with ???action, excitement, thundering guns and a maiden in distress??? (Variety), this ???brawny, blood-curdling??? (Look Magazine) high-seas saga that remains a rollicking, ???timeless pleasure??? (Los Angeles Times)! * Best Cinematography, Color: Leon Shamroy, 1942.
